full features list:
More Symbols, Templates, and Fonts
- More Fonts: MathType has hundreds more symbols and templates than
Equation Editor. Beside our exclusive Euclid™ math fonts, you
can also make use of the 1000's of math symbols in fonts already on
your computer, as well as math fonts you can download from the Internet.
- Find
Symbols: MathType's Insert Symbol dialog allows you to explore the
available symbols and insert them with a click or keystroke.
Works with Many Applications
- Many Applications: In addition to Microsoft Word and PowerPoint,
use MathType to add equations to QuarkXPress and Adobe InDesign layouts,
Excel spreadsheets, HTML pages, and many more applications and document
types.
- Works with Wikipedia: Wikipedia, the popular online encyclopedia,
contains 1000's of pages with mathematical equations. Once you do your
research on Wikipedia, you can copy the relevant equations for use
in your own work. You can also use MathType to author new equations
for Wikipedia.
- Many Ways to Work: MathType can add equations to virtually
any application that has an Insert Object command or into which you
can paste or drag a graphic.
Two Ways to Create Equations
- Point-and-Click Editing with Automatic Formatting: Equations can
be created quickly by choosing templates from MathType's palettes and
typing into their empty slots. MathType applies mathematical spacing
rules automatically as you type.
- Type TeX or LaTeX: If you already know
the TeX typesetting language, you can enter equations quickly using
MathType's TeX input mode. TeX editing can be mixed with point-and-click
editing so you get the best of both worlds. You can also paste in equations
from existing TeX documents.
Saves Time
- Save Expressions in the Toolbar: Drag frequently used equations
and expressions to the MathType toolbar so they can be inserted later
with just a click or a keystroke.
- Keyboard Shortcuts: MathType has customizable
keyboard shortcuts for virtually every symbol, template, and command.
Easier to Use
- Microsoft Office 2007 - MathType Ribbon Tab in Word and
PowerPoint: MathType takes full advantage of Office 2007's new Ribbon
User Interface making it easier than ever to do equation operations
in documents and presentations. New equation numbering and browse features
work with all Word equation types.
- Microsoft Office 2003, XP (2002),
and 2000 - MathType Toolbar
and Menu in Word and PowerPoint: MathType adds a toolbar and menu to
Microsoft Word and PowerPoint, allowing quick access to its features
and powerful commands to do equation numbering, produce great-looking
math web pages, presentations, and much more.
Better Results
