+The jsMath package provides a method of including mathematics in HTML pages
+that works across multiple browsers under Windows, Macintosh OS X, Linux and
+other flavors of unix. jsMath uses native fonts, so they resize when you
+change the size of the text in your browser, they print at the full resolution
+of your printer, and you don't have to wait for dozens of images to be
+downloaded in order to see the mathematics in a web page. There are also
+advantages for web-page authors, as there is no need to preprocess your
+web pages to generate any images, and the mathematics is entered in TeX form,
+so it is easy to create and maintain your web pages.
+
+Although it works best with the TeX fonts installed, jsMath will fall back
+on a collection of image-based fonts (which can still be scaled or printed
+at high resolution) or unicode fonts when the TeX fonts are not available.
