Here are some of the major new features in MathType 6.5. To learn more about them, visit our Full Feature List.
- Equations Everywhere and Anywhere: Up until now, MathType has been thought of mostly as a tool that works with Microsoft Word and PowerPoint. But it has always been much more than that. You can label graphs with equations, create equation images for websites, blogs, wikis, export equations to TeX or MathML, and much more.
- Enter equations in TeX/LaTeX directly in Word: If you know the TeX typesetting language, you can type it directly into your Word document. When you are done, the TeX code will be converted to a MathType equation. The TeX Toggle keyboard shortcut allows you to toggle between TeX and MathType views of the equation.
- New keyboard shortcuts in Word to open equations for editing: Many of our customers like to use the keyboard. Now you can open an equation next to the insertion point using a keyboard shortcut. Together with our new TeX Toggle feature, you can now enter and edit equations completely from the keyboard without leaving Word.
- New translators for Maple, Mathematica, Physics Forum and more: As part of our "Equations Everywhere and Anywhere" effort, we have added new translators for many applications and websites.
- MathML Import: Now you can import mathematics defined using MathML from the many applications that produce it. MathML code can be either in the new MathML Clipboard Format that is supported by a growing number of mathematical and scientific applications or plain text such as from an XML editor, for example. The MathML can be imported via cut and paste or drag and drop.
MathType 6.5 equations are compatible with MathType 6.0 and 5.0 equations so you can continue to work with other MathType users even if they haven't upgraded yet. MathType 6.5 will also retain any changes you've made in your current version of MathType, including keyboard shortcuts, toolbars, preferences, etc.
