Comment on Ask HN: How far are we from in-browser typesettingparent

Comments

Memory available to the browser was limited, sub-pixel rendering was impractical. There is a commercial product 'MathType' that uses TeX to render beautiful mathematics on web pages but I don't know if they have a WebGL version or not.

If you read Don Knuth's book on TeX you can probably figure out how to make it run.

I will at least look at Knuth's book, though I doubt I will be able to make it work!
