Currently, out-of-the-box, it doesn't. You would need an equation
editor such as:

This is a fairly good summary of the features:

We looked at it, but the volume of math we deal with was too great to
use this package conveniently.

And then there is

which **seems** (as I read the info about the package) not to require
the InMath plugin to print or read ID documents that use it. I'd check
that just to make sure.

In any event you could send your printer a PDF of the finished document.
