MathJax v2.7.2 now available

After a very smooth beta run, we’re happy to officially release MathJax v2.7.2.

This release includes a workaround for a regression in Safari when using combining characters as well as an important update to the MathJax Accessibility Extensions and the underlying speech-rule-engine, greatly improving performance and quality.

For details on all bug fixes, please see below.

This release should be available on all CDN providers, e.g., cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/mathjax/2.7.2/MathJax.js which you can load it in place of the version you are currently using. Alternatively, you can get a ZIP archive or access the branch on GitHub.

Thanks for your continuing interest in MathJax. We hope that this release makes your MathJax experience even better.

The MathJax Team.
