Math Type: Typing complex mathematical equations or
scientific expressions can be difficult when creating tests or writing research
papers if you are using only
Microsoft Word or Excel--these apps, though powerful tools, simply are limited
in syuch areas. However, thanks to this nifty app, you can build authentic
formulas appropriate for rigorous review and study.
MathType launches a compact interface with four
rows of buttons for a variety of symbols, and a row of tabbed buttons
categorized by type of expression: algebra, derivations, statistics, matrices,
sets, trigonometry, and geometry. These five rows are arrayed over a pane for
typing and manipulating the equations the user wishes to build. The design is
simple and straightforward, and navigating the app's features is simple to
master. This app performed very satisfactorily during our tests. Building an
equation in the editing pane was a simple matter, by clicking buttons to select
a symbol or using the Insert Symbolcommand. Copying and pasting from the
editing pane into another app was a snap. We liked very much the ease in adding
an expression--and even an entire category of expressions--to the row of tabbed
buttons. MathType offers a number of formatting options to suit a variety of
equation types. We appreciated the range of options available for customizing
the app through the Preferences dialog box, and most users should be satisfied
by this list of options.
More Ways to Create Equations:
Entering Math by Hand: Enter equations as easily as
you would write math with paper and pencil! This feature uses the built-in
handwriting recognition in Windows 7.
Point-and-Click Editing with Automatic Formatting:
Create equations quickly by choosing templates from MathType's palettes and
typing into their empty slots. MathType applies mathematical spacing rules
automatically as you type.
Keyboard Shortcuts: Save time using keyboard
shortcuts. MathType has customizable keyboard shortcuts for virtually every
symbol, template, and command.
Type TeX or LaTeX: If you already know the TeX
typesetting language, you can enter equations directly into MathType or
Microsoft Word documents. TeX editing can be mixed with point-and-click editing
so you get the best of both worlds. You can even paste in equations from
existing TeX documents.
Copy-and-Paste: If you created your equation in
another application or found one on a website, why take the time to create it
by hand again? Simply copy-and-paste it directly into MathType, and it is ready
to edit or use in your work.
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.
Microsoft Office 2007 & 2010 — MathType Ribbon
Tab in Word and PowerPoint: MathType takes full advantage of Office's 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 and XP (2002) — 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.
Find Symbols: MathType's Insert Symbol dialog
allows you to explore the available symbols and insert them with a click or
keystroke.
