By "help program", do you mean a program which displays mainly fixed,
static content in an attempt to teach the user something (e.g. some
mathematical principles)? If so, you may find it much easier to make the
bulk of your "program" in HTML, and use a couple of cleverly placed Java
applets for any interactive parts (quizzes? virtual experiments? interactive
diagrams? etc.)
While you can do what you want in pure Java, it won't be easy.

Well, i have made a tool in Java, and i want to make another help
application for it, to explain each step, and yes some mathematical
principles, but only mathematical equations.
..
Look for a MathML rendering library for Java?
I have a different strategy that incorporates
parts of both ideas.
1) Launch using web start (or include
BrowserLauncher2 with your application)
2) Do the help pages in standard MathML*
3) Display the help pages in the user's own
browser (using the web start services, or
browser launcher, to show the help pages).
