| '''MathType''' is a software application created by [[Design Science (company)|Design Science]] that allows the creation of mathematical notation for inclusion in desktop and web applications. | |
| | |
| == Features ==
| |
| MathType is a graphical editor for mathematical equations, allowing entry with the mouse or keyboard in a full graphical [[WYSIWYG]] environment.<ref>[http://www.dessci.com/en/products/mathtype/ Design Science: MathType - Equation Editor]</ref> 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,<ref group="nb">This feature is disabled by default, but can be enabled in Workspace Preferences.</ref> and MathType equations in Microsoft Word can be converted to and from LaTeX.<ref>[http://www.dessci.com/en/products/mathtype/features.htm#type_tex_in_word Design Science: MathType full feature list - Type TeX in Word]</ref> MathType supports copying to and pasting from any of these markup languages.
| |
| | |
| Additionally, on Windows 7 and later,<ref>[http://www.dessci.com/en/products/mathtype/features.htm#Win7MIP Design Science: Mathtype - Math Handwriting Recognition]</ref> equations may be drawn using a touch screen or pen (or mouse) via the [[Tablet PC Input Panel|math input panel]].
| |
| | |
| By default, MathType equations are typeset in [[Times New Roman]], with [[Symbol (typeface)|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.
| |
| | |
| === Support for other applications ===
| |
| On Windows, MathType supports [[object linking and embedding]] (OLE),<ref>[http://www.dessci.com/en/products/MathType/features.htm#insert_obj Design Science: MathType - Full Feature List - OLE]</ref> 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<ref>[http://www.dessci.com/en/products/MathType_Mac/office2008.htm Design Science: What's the story with MathType and Microsoft Office 2008?]</ref>), which adds equation formatting features such as equation numbering, which are features that MathType does not add to other applications.
| |
| | |
| For Web applications such as Gmail and Google Docs, MathType supports copying to (and pasting from) [[HTML element#Images and objects|HTML <code><nowiki><img></nowiki></code> 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 <code><nowiki><img></nowiki></code> tag, whereas choosing "Wikipedia" would copy as LaTeX wrapped in a <code><nowiki><math></nowiki></code> wiki tag.

| | |
| == MathDaisy ==
| |
| Design Science also markets the related MathDaisy application, which allows export of MathType to the [[DAISY]] digital talking book system, targeted at people with [[print disabilities]].<ref>[http://www.dessci.com/en/products/mathdaisy/ Design Science: MathDaisy]</ref> It includes support for the Save As DAISY add-in for Microsoft Word.
| |
| | |
| == Microsoft Equation Editor ==
| |
| {{Main|Microsoft Equation Editor}}
| |
| | |
| Microsoft Equation Editor is a cut-down version of MathType included in Microsoft Office. Although fully functional, it lacks some features of MathType, and it includes a help item with information on purchasing the full product. In previous versions of Microsoft Office it was the default method of inserting and editing equations, but as of more recent versions it has been supplanted by the new equation-editing system (in some applications in Office 2007, and all applications in Office 2010).

I would like to introduce myself to you, I am Jayson Simcox but I don't like when people use my complete title. I am presently a travel agent. I am really fond of to go to karaoke but I've been taking on new things lately. For a while I've been in Mississippi but now I'm contemplating other choices.
