Use MathType with Microsoft Office 2008 and 2011. Here it is with Word 2011:
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.
Three 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 type it into the MathType window or directly into a Word document. 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.
Type TeX or LaTeX directly into a Microsoft Word document: With MathType's unique TeX Toggle feature, you can type TeX directly into a Word document. When you are done, use the TeX Toggle command to turn it into a typeset equation. If you want to edit it later, use TeX Toggle again to turn it back into TeX to make your changes.
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.
Easier to Use
Toolbar and Menu in Microsoft Word 2011: MathType adds a toolbar and menu to Microsoft Word 2011, allowing quick access to its features and powerful commands to do equation numbering, produce great-looking math web pages, and much more. MathType also works with Word 2008 but lacks the toolbar and menu support.
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's was added earlier In MathType 6?
Microsoft Office 2007 support -- MathType takes full advantage of Office
2007's Ribbon User Interface by adding a new MathType Tab in Word
and PowerPoint. MathType also works with Office 2003, XP and 2000.
TeX input -- type or paste TeX into MathType to quickly create equations
for Word, PowerPoint and 1000's of other applications.
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.
Windows Vista support -- MathType 6 works on Windows Vista, XP, and
2000 operating systems.
And much more...
What Reviewers Said 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
