Equation options in Word 2007
How do I change the default font for math regions in the Equation options?
The only option it gives me is Cambria Math. I'd like to use a font that matches the font I use on the rest of the document. |

Equation options in Word 2007
Hi Ava,
The only font that MS provided with Word 2007 that contains the full set of Mathematical operators that the MS Equation Editor can use is Cambria Math. You can use the Equation Tools to create a 'normal text' region and cut and paste your math region equation into that area and apply a different font or paste it outside of the equation object and in either case apply a different font, but you may find that it changes not just the look but the equation if the same symbol set is not available in your 'other' font. There may be other fonts that will support this or other equation editors such as http://mathtype.com that you may want to look into. =========== "Ava" wrote in message ...

Equation options in Word 2007
Thank you. That's a lot more work than I want to do! I'm typing tests and
have numerous equations to add. I have math type at work, but the Equation Editor in Word 2007 is much quicker and easier. ~Ava "Bob Buckland ?:-)" wrote: Hi Ava, The only font that MS provided with Word 2007 that contains the full set of Mathematical operators that the MS Equation Editor can use is Cambria Math.

Equation options in Word 2007
Easy is indeed, but making those changes in font is a pain... and I do have
to have it on the same font as the rest of the document, or the lovely ladies at the graduate office will detect the inconsistency and violation with the document writing guides... regards, "Suzanne S.

Equation options in Word 2007
Our group has just started to use Office 2007. We are having the same
difficulty with the equation editor. Many of the professional journals that we submit papers to require the Times New Roman font for all of the submission text including equations. Are there any easy fixes?

Equation options in Word 2007
Hello Bob
I tried to utilize the fonts Computer Modern (http://canopus.iacp.dvo.ru/~panov/cm.../download.html) and Latin Modern (http://www.gust.org.pl/projects/e-fo...odern/download) since they are used often in type-setting Mathematics equations to replace Cambria Math. However, I can't seem to find a way to do so. Any help? Vincent |
