We are happy to announce a new partnership between MathJax and AIP Publishing. MathJax is an open-source JavaScript display engine that produces high-quality math in all modern browsers, without plug-ins or other special set-up requirements, which is why it works so great on Physics Forums.

MathJax let's users copy equations from AIP’s online journal articles and paste them directly into Physics Forums, as well as Word and LaTeX documents, science blogs, MathType, and research wikis. Equations can also be copied and pasted into calculation software like Maple, Mathematica, and others. MathJax supports the use of STIX fonts, which will improve MathJax’s speed when rendering mathematics.

Greg, I'm not a developer, but I'm in contact with them throughout the week. Anything I can pass along?
 
I'm the Director of Training at Design Science. I've updated my profile to reflect that. Not required, I know, but in the interest of full disclosure...
