The latest versions of MathType for Mac and PC are now available for checkout in the Documents Room.
MathType, a full-featured equation editor for Microsoft Word, is site-licensed by the UO for use by UO faculty, staff, and students. You can use it to create mathematical notation for word processing, web pages, desktop publishing, presentations, and for TeX, LaTeX, and MathML documents. The tool's web capabilities allow you to create high-resolution mathematical equations that display beautifully on web pages across browser platforms and add color to all or part of your equations--a feature that may be desirable in PowerPoint presentations.
How to obtain your copy. As long as you are a UO faculty or staff member or a currently enrolled student, you may install MathType at work and at home. Bring your UO photo ID to the Computing Center's Documents Room Library (175 McKenzie) and check out a MathType CD. You may want to call first (346-4406) to make sure a copy is available.
