Brian, I don't understand the MIME arguments that well, due to not having worked with publication oriented CIF at all; I am in macromolecular crystallography. In general, how is MIME with a TeX component any different from the current %T hack, except that it also included a simple ASCII approximation? It sounds like you are considering how to expand the usage beyond the current %T usage. I think that the only way to get good publication quality output is to generate a result that is based on vector-graphics. Maybe SVG format will work for the basic page layout, as well as for things like equations. SVG is XML based, and can deal with things like embedded objects and hyperlinks. There are even existing mechanisms for including bitmap images in the text stream. Anyhow, how does this all relate to MIME in CIF as good or bad? If there is a TeX equation within a CIF file, this can be used directly for publication purposes only if there is a parent document somewhere defining the layout in which to render that equation. Should this be in the CIF file as well? If so, MIME would allow the parent document to exist both as plain text and SVG/HTML/whatever. Joe
