MathType 6.5 Brushes the Equation Blues Away
Found the perfect Wikipedia equation but now you need to import it into a report? The equations in your essay need to be formatted in exactly the right way? Word’s equation editor doesn’t have quite the right symbols?
Students, academics and technical professionals worldwide who’ve answered “Yes!” to any of these questions have maximised their investment in Microsoft Word with MathType 6.5.
It’s a key application for anyone writing technical reports, and once you start using it, it becomes as indispensible as a spell checker and automatic reference management.
MathType’s breadth of functionality begins with its equation editor for Word, which gives you complete access to a range of symbols, fonts and equation formatting tools. The editor can be used inline within Word, in a separate window, or if you’re one of the growing numbers of people with dual monitors, in a separate window. It also extends Word’s document browsing feature to enable you to review all the equations in a document, allowing you to check equations and references for consistency.
MathType also intelligently updates typesetting as you type. It’ll place a thicker space on either side of an equals, a medium space between operands, and a smaller space between operands in a superscript.
Fans of Wikipedia (and other websites with maths) will be delighted to discover that you can copy any equation image with TeX “alt text” into MathType so that it’s instantly editable. Equations can also be copied and pasted in from any other TeX document, exported to TeX/LaTeX, and even entered in TeX syntax.
Additionally, round-trip conversion between MathType and Maple means that mathematicians only need to write equations once for use in either package.
We hope we’ve convinced you to evaluate MathType 6.5, but if you need any assistance please contact our product specialists. |
