In addition, I’m working actually in mathmagic, that’s the better way I found to work within ID and with math expressions.

Even mathype that comes from within word files can be pasted in mathmagic windows, who makes the work more easier.

Well, I’m using mathtype in both softs, ID & Word.
All the equations works well importing in ID.

Hi David

Glad to hear movemen are still amongst the inDesign caste! I’m looking forward to the mt.importer release, as I’m knee-deep in equation hell. If the importer does everything it promises, my company will be onboard faster than you can say: “Placing equations as EPS files? you must be joking…”

Cheers!

Hello folks:

My name is David Cohen and I am with movemen GmbH. There has been a lot rumors and misinformation lately how InMath® licensed customers can purchase upgrades for InMath® for use with Adobe InDesign and InCopy CS4, CS5 and CS5.5. On behalf of all my colleagues at movemen, we apologize for remaining rather silent through the beginning of 2011 while we prepared for some major changes—as you can see from our newly updated website:
• http://movemen.com/

At the end of December 2010, movemen GmbH and i.t.i.p. GmbH (the reseller of InMath®) severed their business relationship. movemen—the software developer for InMath®—brought the technology (code) back in-house. We rebranded the equation editor as mt.editor 1.0 for use with CS4, CS5 and CS5.5. Here’s a link to our mt.editor 1.0 product page (there’s a quick link for Software pricing on the movemen homepage):
• http://movemen.com/products/details/mt.editor/

In addition, movemen is launching the Math Tools platform. Our newest product, mt.importer (to be released in Q4 2011) properly imports and converts MS Word documents containing MathType equations into native, editable mt.editor equations.
• http://movemen.com/products/details/mt.importer/

Lastly, we are extending invitations to all interested InMath® customers to attend one of 3 web-hosted meetings. If you would like to receive an invitation to learn more about our company, our technology roadmap and our desire to learn more about you and your business, please send me an e-mail—david.cohen@movemen.com and state which meeting you wish to attend. The meetings will be on these dates/times:
• Thursday September 22nd, 2011 @ 9 AM PDT—Noon EDT—18:00 CET
• Tuesday September 27th, 2011 @ 7:30 AM PDT—10:30 AM EDT—16:30 CET
• Thursday September 29th, 2011 @ 9 AM PDT—Noon EDT—18:00 CET
Note: We will record the meeting and post it online after the September 29th meeting has concluded

In closing, if you have any questions you would like to address offline, please feel free to contact us at info@movemen.com

Thanks,

David Cohen
movemen GmbH

@Jimmy: There is no doubt that movemen and InMath was pretty quiet for most of 2011, but it looks like things are really starting to pick up again there in good ways. I just noticed they do have the upgrade pricing and an online shop set up: http://movemen.com/softwarePricing

I create Government-approved Mathematical textbooks for the educational sector in South Africa. To this end, I purchased inMath years ago, for Indesign CS2, and it became an indispensable tool in my plug-in collection. When I upgraded to Indesign CS5, I was forced to switch over to MathMagic, much to my dismay. It’s feature-rich, yet slow and rather restrictive (try doing a global text-size change, or even a font-change. Do the fractions and equations follow suit? Do they hell!) Inmath was perfect for this. The fonts within the equations updated perfectly, the baselines shifted accordingly, and you could do a global or partial refresh at any time. Downside? It’s rather expensive. It seems the devs have taken quite some time to get it up to CS5 compatibility too, which worries me a bit. I’m not going to fork out that kind of buffalo for an alpha-stage plug-in. Has anybody on this site tested the CS5 version? Anybody at all? I have yet to chat to someone who has even seen it in action…
