MathType for Macintosh is a powerful
interactive equation editor that lets you create mathematical
notation for word processing, web pages, desktop publishing,
presentations, and for TeX, LaTeX, and MathML documents.
Features & Benefits
Here are just a few of MathType's many features:
More Symbols, Templates, and
Fonts
More Fonts: MathType
has hundreds more symbols and templates than Equation
Editor. Beside MathType's exclusive Euclid math
fonts, you can also make use of the 1000s of maths
symbols in fonts already on your computer, as well
as maths 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 1000s 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.
Use Wikipedia as a source of equations
for your work:
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.
Typing TeX can be combined
with MathType's traditional point-and-click editing:
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 customisable keyboard shortcuts for virtually every
symbol, template, and command.
Intel Mac and Leopard (OS
X 10.5) Support: MathType is a Universal application
supporting both Intel and PowerPC Macs with fast
native code. MathType works with Mac OS X 10.3.9
or later, including 10.5 (Leopard).
Easier to Use
Toolbar and Menu in Microsoft
Word: MathType adds a toolbar and menu to Microsoft
Word, allowing quick access to its features and
powerful commands to do equation numbering, produce
great-looking math web pages, and much more. (These
features
are available in Word X and 2004, not Word 2008.
Please see the Full
Feature List on the US website for details.)
Better Results
Colour: Colouring an
equation can make it stand out. Use colour to highlight
part of an equation and focus your students'
attention on it. Show what changed in each
step of a multi-step procedure.

What People Are Saying About MathType 6:
"... version 5 was excellent, but release 6 is even better. I get
more done, in less time, with less investment of attention span, with no
compatibility problems and no conscious awareness of learning curve; which
sounds to me like a good definition of the ideal upgrade." -- Felix
Grant, Science Writer, ScientificComputing.com
"New options for publishing to 'MathPage', for numbering equations
and converting them to TeX have made 6.0 indispensable for anyone who writes
squiggles [equations]." -- William F. Shughart II, F.A.P. Barnard
Distinguished Professor of Economics; Editor in Chief, Public Choice;
The University of Mississippi, Department of Economics
"... the new LaTeX-to-MathType feature is marvelous. Instead of having
to retype all my equations again to use in a PowerPoint presentation, I
now can just cut and paste. This is the best software purchase I have made
in a long time" -- Alfonso Limon, Chief Scientist, A&A Consulting
Ca
"I love this product (and use it every day)... I am ecstatic!!!!" --
