MathType trial

Apple picked MathType Desktop as the equation editor to use with these applications. When MathType Desktop is installed, an Equation command appears on the Insert menu. Choosing this command will open MathType Desktop, so you can insert an equation into the document. Which versions of Microsoft Office work with MathType? In the Insert Object dialog, choose MathType 7.0 Equation, then click OK. MathType will open up in a separate window. Create your equation the way you want it to appear in your document, close the MathType window, and your equation will appear in LibreOffice. Choose Insert Equation (from the Insert menu at the top of your screen). If you set MathType as your default equation editor, MathType opens automatically (after you enter an equation the first time). Otherwise, click Use MathType in the dialog that appears. To enter the equation, click symbols and type in the MathType window. MathType 7 for Desktop. MathType setup automatically installs and adds a new equation editor toolbar to Microsoft Word and PowerPoint, for Windows and Mac computers, and also for Pages, Keynote and Numbers on Mac computers.

What can I do with MathType during the 30-day trial?

During your MathType trial period, you can do the same things as you can with a fully-registered copy of MathType. There are no restrictions or limitations other than the time limit of 30 days.

What can I do after the 30-day trial expires?

There are 3 things you can do with an expired trial. One, you can view and print the equations. Two, you can copy them as LaTeX or MathML or a site-specific format (such as WordPress and many others). Three, if you're in Word you can convert the equation to a Word equation editor (OMML) equation. One thing you cannot do after your trial expires is create or edit equations.

What happens with MathType documents when my trial expires?

The equations in documents you create during the trial remain readable and unchanged after your trial expires. The only difference you'll notice is you'll no longer be able to make changes to these equations. With MathType Desktop the equations do require the MathType fonts to remain installed though, so take care not to remove any font with the name Euclid in it, nor the font MT Extra.

MathType Desktop vs Equation Editor

Equation Editor (aka 'Microsoft Equation 3.0' and other names) was included with Microsoft Office and other products for many years. It is not included with Microsoft Office any longer, but you may still have it if you have not updated your copy of Microsoft Office or if you have other applications that include Equation Editor. Even if the software on your computer no longer includes Equation Editor, you or your colleagues may still have documents that contain equations created with Equation Editor. This section of FAQ should help.

Will others who don't use MathType Desktop be able to read or edit my equations?

You may want to send documents containing MathType Desktop equations to other people so they can view, print, or even edit them. In case they need to edit the equations, they should download and install our free MathType Desktop 30-day trial, and they will be able to edit your equations during the trial period. Once the trial is over, the MathType Desktop editor will not be available for editing equations. MathType Desktop's fonts will remain installed, so equations will still display and print.

Will I be able to edit Equation Editor equations with MathType Desktop?

Yes, MathType Desktop can understand and edit Equation Editor equations in your existing documents. MathType Desktop cannot create equations in the old Equation Editor format.

General use FAQ

How do I type a space into an equation? Why does it beep when I hit the spacebar?

MathType Desktop automatically applies spacing according to the rules of mathematical typesetting as you type. This involves six different space widths, none of which is the width of a normal space. Since people are so accustomed to hitting the spacebar while typing, we disable it when you're typing math. However, MathType Desktop also has a Text style, allowing you to type a plain phrase or sentence in the middle of an equation, so naturally the spacebar works in Text style. If you find you always need additional space at certain places in routine expressions, such as after the comma in an ordered pair for example, we recommend rather than pressing the spacebar, change the spacing definitions. For more information, see Define Spacing Dialog.

Features[edit]

MathType is a graphical editor for mathematical equations, allowing entry with the mouse or keyboard in a full graphical WYSIWYG environment.[1] This contrasts to document markup languages such as LaTeX where equations are entered as markup in a text editor and then processed into a typeset document as a separate step.

MathType also supports the math markup languages TeX, LaTeX and MathML. LaTeX can be entered directly into MathType,[nb 1] and MathType equations in Microsoft Word can be converted to and from LaTeX.[2] MathType supports copying to and pasting from any of these markup languages.

Additionally, on Windows 7 and later,[3] equations may be drawn using a touch screen or pen (or mouse) via the math input panel.

By default, MathType equations are typeset in Times New Roman, with Symbol used for symbols and Greek. Equations may also be typeset in Euclid, a modern font like Computer Modern used in TeX, and this is included with the software. Roman characters (i.e. variable names and functions) may be typeset in any font that contains those characters, but Greek and symbols will still use Times or Euclid.

Support for other applications[edit]

On Windows, MathType supports object linking and embedding (OLE),[4] which is the standard Windows mechanism for including information from one application in another. In particular office suites such as Microsoft Office and OpenOffice.org for Windows allow MathType equations to be embedded in this way. Equations embedded using OLE are displayed and printed as graphics in the host application, and can be edited later, in which case the host document is updated automatically. In addition, a Microsoft Word add-in is included, which adds features including equation numbering and formatting displayed equations (as opposed to inline equations), which are features that MathType does not add to other applications.

On Macs, there is no analogous standard to OLE so support is not universal. Microsoft Office for Mac supports OLE, so MathType equations may be used there as usual. MathType has support for Apple iWork '09, so equations may be embedded and updated seamlessly in that product too. In applications where no other possibility is available, such as OpenOffice.org for Mac, Design Science recommends exporting equations as images and embedding those images into documents. As on Windows there is a plugin for Microsoft Word for Mac (except for Word 2008[5]), which adds equation formatting features such as equation numbering, which are features that MathType does not add to other applications. AppleWorks included a special version of MathType for built-in equation editing.[6]

For Web applications such as Gmail and Google Docs, MathType supports copying to (and pasting from) HTML tags (created by translating the equation's LaTeX into Google Chart API). There is a list of web application presets in the Copy Preferences dialog, so for example choosing 'Google Docs' would copy as an HTML tag, whereas choosing 'Wikipedia' would copy as LaTeX wrapped in a wiki tag.

Version history[edit]

Since the initial introduction in 1987, Design Science has released ten newer versions of MathType, the last in 2018. Font for mac how to install.
