Equations have more overhead in the document, and for large documents the difference can be significant. While you can create inline equations consisting of a single symbol, we recommend you use Word's Insert Symbol command instead.

This command is not available in versions of Windows earlier than Windows 7. When you click the MIP Insert button, the equation will be placed at the insertion point. Windows only: (Windows 7 and later) Insert an equation by handwriting it in the Math Input Panel (MIP). Open Math Input Panel… Ctrl+ Shift+ M (Windows) The MTDisplayEquation style defines the location of the center tab stop. Similar to Insert Display Equation, but also inserts a left-aligned equation number before the equation. Insert Left-Numbered Display Equation Ctrl+ Alt+ Shift+ Q (Windows), Ctrl+ Shift+ Q (Mac) The MTDisplayEquation style defines the location of the right margin tab stop. Similar to Insert Display Equation, but also inserts a right-aligned equation number following the equation. Insert Right-Numbered Display Equation Alt+ Shift+ Q (Windows), ⌥+ Shift+ Q (Mac) This means that you can change the alignment of all of the display equations in a document by simply modifying this style. To simplify changing the formatting for all of the display equations in a document, a Word style called MTDisplayEquation is created that defines the position of the center tab stop. The display equation is inserted on a new line and centered between the left and right margins. Opens a new MathType window using equation preferences as described above under Insert Inline Equation. Insert Display Equation Alt+ Q (Windows), ⌥+ Q (Mac) The resulting equation is inserted inline, i.e., aligned with the surrounding text. Otherwise MathType's current preferences for new equations will be used. If you have defined equation preferences for new equations (using the Set Equation Preferences command), these settings will be used in the MathType window. Opens a new MathType window ready for you to enter an equation. Insert Inline Equation Ctrl+ Alt+ Q (Windows), Ctrl+ Q (Mac)
