Using Restrict formatting and the new Equation editor together
Is there a way to use automatic formatting in the new equation editor when
Word 2007's restrict formatting feature is turned on ("Limit formatting to permitted styles")? Currently, if this option is turned on, variables with Latin letters are not formatted in italic, as they should be. They are even with the document default font, and not with the new Cambria Math font. Ctrl+I is not working, because formatting is restricted. I tried to create a new charachter style with Cambria Math font and italic, but it did not produce the same format as the original equation. It did not help, if I check the "Allow AutoFormat to override formatting " option either. It would be really nice to use both features (restrict formatting + new equation editor) together. Thanks for the help, Zoltan |

I can confirm what you are seeing. As far as I know, the only workaround is
to insert a Microsoft Equation object (via Insert tab | Object); the older type of equations work even with restricted formatting. -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "MiZo" wrote: Is there a way to use automatic formatting in the new equation editor when Word 2007's restrict formatting feature is turned on ("Limit formatting to permitted styles")?

Thanks for confirming it. I would like to use the new equation editor, so I
guess I have to skip then the restrict formatting option. Regards, Zoltan "Stefan Blom" wrote: I can confirm what you are seeing.
