Powerful editing tool for creating technical documents
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 100s of applications and websites, allowing you to put Equations Everywhere and Anywhere™.
While many MathType users create equations for Microsoft Word documents and PowerPoint presentations, MathType also works with many, many other applications and websites:
Please see FAQ #17 for an explanation of compatibility with Office 2016 for Mac. Type TeX/LaTeX directly into a Microsoft Word document: If you already know the TeX typesetting language, you can enter equations quickly using that language in either the MathType editing window or directly into a Word document using the new TeX Toggle command.
- Work with TeX and LaTeX editors and documents.
- Use equations to label Excel spreadsheets.
- Copy equations from Mathematica or Maple into your research.
- 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.
