I have also had strange interactions between Track Changes and the Equation Editor, so I avoid the Equation Editor where possible. In contrast, copy pasting Equation Editor equations into other applications like Excel or PowerPoint doesn’t work. This means they can be copied and pasted into other applications, including Excel, PowerPoint, internet pages, and humble text editors, without loss of fidelity. The advantage of this method, versus the full-blown equation editor, is that the symbols and equations typed this way are no different to ordinary text. `\Delta` (note uppercase D for uppercase delta symbol) Once you have enabled this option, you can type things like: An easier way to type symbols into normal Word paragraphs is to enable the “ Use Math AutoCorrect rules outside of math regions” option:
Math mode can be overkill for simple symbols and formulas. LaTeX users are already familiar with this method, and the syntax is similar. It’s easier if you’re in Word’s equation editor / math mode ( Alt + = enters math mode), where you can just type symbol names like \omega and \times. The default way of doing it is to use the Insert > Symbols > More Symbols dialog, where you can hunt for the symbol you want.įinding the actual symbol you want takes a lot of paging through the character map, which is not fun. Typing math symbols into Word can be tedious.
