Re: Converting MathML to text (and TeX/LaTeX)

Vasil,

just for your information, ActiveMath's rendering is based on this stylesheet.
It has been strongly adjusted, since it is used to process notations that contain mathml and that generate stylesheets that generate html+css, tex, and mathml. See, e.g.:
 http://www.activemath.org/Software/Notations
