You need to set Symbol (not Bookman Symbol 7) as the default font for Greek
characters.

I recently upgraded to Office 2003. Today I noticed the equation editor
3.0
wasn't working. It's impossible to prepare a bracketed 1x3 or 3x3 matrix.
For
some reason the angle bracket disappears when you attempt to prepare the
matrix. One issue was the absence of the Bookman Symbol 7 font, which was
my
default for greek characters. Tried to track that down on the Microsoft
site;
finally gave up and googled it (what a sad tale of woe that turned out to
be). I downloaded and installed the software that you suggested, but the
'brackets' map to images of stacked boxes. This is very frustrating, as
the
eq editor's been working fine for years. Is there any way to get this
going,
or is it just a lost cause?

First, make sure that EE is not installed. Go to Insert | Object |
Create
new and make sure that Microsoft Equation 3.0 is not listed. If it is
not,
go to http://www.dessci.com/en/products/mathtype/ and download the demo
version of MathType. It's just a 30-day trial version, but even if you
decide not to buy, when the trial expires you'll be left with a fully
functioning version of something a little better than EE.
