You have reached this page in an attempt to use my MetaPost Previewer. I have overhauled the original version of this previewer by doing a
complete rewrite of the code. The primary purpose for this overhaul is to provide a better previewer with more features than the original. New features include:
- A prettier CSS styled user interface
- Scalable Vector Graphic (SVG) images with proper browser support
- LaTeX addons (e.g. cmbright, times, etc.) to primarily control fonts
- MetaPost addons (e.g., boxes, graph, etc.) to supplement basic MetaPost features
In order to take full advantage of these new features, you should use a browser with proper SVG support. While Microsoft Internet Explorer (IE) can be made to have partial support with the help of
Adobe's SVG Viewer, it still is far from perfect. Since Adobe plans to discontinue all support their SVG Viewer beginning in 2008, IE users should consider one of the following options:
- Use a broswer with better SVG support, e.g., Mozilla Firefox
- Use the new MetaPost Previewer with PNG graphics
