MathType 7.4.4.516 Final

MathType is a powerful interactive equation editor for Windows and Macintosh that lets you create mathematical notation for word processing, web pages, desktop publishing, presentations, and for TeX, LaTeX, and MathML documents. MathType works with hundreds of applications and websites, allowing you to put Equations Everywhere and Anywhere™.

On installation, MathType automatically 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. You can use MathType as a stand-alone application or launch from within other applications, such as Microsoft Word, Apple Pages, WPS Presentation, iBooks Author and more. Build the equation by selecting symbols and templates from MathType's toolbars, or by using convenient keyboard shortcuts. If you launch MathType from within another application, normally you'll insert the equation into your document simply by closing MathType. If you use MathType as a stand-alone application, you can copy & paste into your choice of hundreds of applications, websites, blogs, etc.

Creating Equations Made Easy for Many Applications
While many MathType users create equations for Microsoft Word documents and PowerPoint presentations, MathType also works with many other applications and websites and we are adding more and more every day:
• Add equations to Quark and InDesign documents.
• Copy equations from websites like Wikipedia, PlanetMath, etc. for use in your own work. You can author new equations for those websites as well.
• Copy equations from Mathematica or Maple into your research.
• Use equations to label DeltaGraph scientific graphs and Excel spreadsheets.
• Work with TeX and LaTeX editors and documents.
• Go to Works With ... to see our MathType Interoperability Registry which lists 100s of compatible applications and websites. Most likely you will see several that you already use or plan to use. If your favorite one is not there, MathType may still work with it using cut and paste, drag and drop, Insert Object, or equation image files.

• Use Wikipedia, PlanetMath, and other websites as sources of equations for your work.

Ways to Create Equations using MathType::

Spoiler

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 and later.

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 a MathType equation for use 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.
