Reply To: MathMagic plug-in automation

Since you are new to InDesign, this will suffice (for the above equation; adjust for your own needs):

• drag out a new text frame and type “N (subscript) j” into it
• draw a horizontal line and position it somewhere below the N frame
• drag out a new text frame and type “Sigma N (subscript) j” into it.
• drag this frame to the correct position below the horizontal line
• select all three objects and group. Now you can move it around at will and place anywhere you want.

How could anyone automate this, for any equation? You tell me.
