MathType for Windows and Macintosh is a powerful interactive tool that will revolutionize the way users create print and web-based documents that contain math. MathType works with any word processor, presentation application, page-layout application, HTML-authoring tool, and other types of software to create equations for research papers, class materials, web pages, slide presentations, journal articles, and books.Users familiar with Equation Editor (included in Microsoft Office and other products) will really appreciate MathType's extra features. It will let the user create a wider range of equations for a wider range of documents, and help users work much more efficiently. With MathType, there is an enormous amount of functionality that effectively transforms Microsoft Word into a state-of-the-art math word processor and web-page editor.MathType includes new MathPage technology that enables the user to transform an entire Word document into a web page with equations that print and display beautifully in any modern Windows, Macintosh, Unix, or Linux browser — no existing product or technology yields better results or is easier to use.Features:• applies the rules of mathematical typesetting as the user types;• automatically chooses fonts, style, spacing, and position as the equation is entered;• modify MathType's rules to accommodate your house style;• switch between automatic formatting and plain text modes with a single keystroke;• for maximum flexibility and control, nudge equation elements in 1/4-point increments;• includes over 500 mathematical symbols and templates including fractions, radicals, sums, integrals, products, matrices, various types of brackets, and braces;• use any character from any font installed on the system;• includes exclusive Euclid Math Font Set, to give a document's text and mathematical notation a consistent, industry-standard TeX/LaTeX Computer Modern look;• includes new MathPage technology to easily convert Microsoft Word documents into a web page, with equations as GIF images or MathML, automatically appearing in the browser;• web pages are standard HTML with JavaScript and work in all modern browsers on all platforms;• MathPage's generated HTML can be combined with other web technologies, such as movies, sound, graphics, database access, and so on;• equations are properly aligned in text and do not interfere with line spacing;• equation display is automatically optimized for the resolution of the user's screen;• with new MathZoom technology, clicking on the equation enlarges it, making it much easier to see small accents, superscripts, and subscripts;• generates high-resolution GIFs for each equation, so that all equations print with laser-printer quality instead of blocky, pixelated images;• visitors browsing web pages can reuse equations by dragging and dropping, or copying and pasting them into MathType;• equation references are converted into hyperlinks that jump to the referenced equation when clicked;• works with virtually all popular word processors, presentation applications, page-layout applications, graphing products, and many other products;• built-in translators for TeX and LaTeX;• save equations as GIF images, EPS (Encapsulated PostScript), WMF, and PICT GIF images;• creates smooth-looking GIF equations on either color or transparent backgrounds;• GIF files created by MathType result in much faster download times because of smaller file sizes obtained by optimization of the GIF color palette;• save as EPS, often the format of choice for professional publishing with QuarkXPress, Adobe InDesign, PageMaker, and other page layout applications;• save as WMF, the standard file format for line art for Microsoft Windows operating systems; and• users of Microsoft Word can automatically export all equations into a folder as GIF, EPS, WMF, or PICT, using the Export Equations command.Virtually all MathType features are enhanced in each major release. Here are some major new features in MathType 6. To learn more about these features, visit our Full Feature List.MathType takes full advantage of Office 2007's new Ribbon User Interface by adding a new MathType Tab in Word and PowerPoint. This makes it easier than ever to do equation operations in documents and presentations. New equation numbering and browse features work with all Word 2007 equation types. MathType 6 also supports Office 2003, XP (2002), and 2000.Enter equations quickly using MathType's TeX input mode. TeX editing can be mixed with point-and-click editing for the best of both worlds. Copy equations from existing TeX documents.Copy and author equations from Wikipedia. Wikipedia, the popular online encyclopedia, contains thousands of pages with mathematical equations. Copy relevant equations for use in your work or copy MathType equations into Wikipedia's page editor in order to create new pages or edit existing ones.The new equation-browsing feature enables the user to visit every equation and/or equation number and reference in the Word document or PowerPoint presentation.MathType can now copy equations to the Windows clipboard using the new MathML clipboard format that is supported by a growing number of mathematical and scientific applications.MathType's user manual and help have been combined into a single, comprehensive help system featuring full text search and an extensive index. It contains tutorials for the most efficient use as well as contextual help for commands and dialogs.MathType 6 equations are compatible with MathType 5 equations - continue to work with others even if they haven't upgraded yet. MathType 6 will also retain any changes made in a current version of MathType to keyboard shortcuts, toolbars, preferences, and so on.Manufacturer: Design Science, Inc.
