Launch the EE and the Equation Ribbon will open. In the first group 'Tools',
click on the little dialog launcher in the title bar (it's the miniscule arrow and you may need an electron microscope to see it). You change the settings in the Tools Dialog. -- Terry Farrell - MSWord MVP "tips6" wrote in message ...

Hi Terry,
Tried what you said, although in the dialog box, it will only let me select Cambria Math as the default font for the 'math regions'??

Microsoft Word 2007 Equation Editor
Hi Matt,
For the Word 2007 Equation Editor the only provided font that has the character glyphs used in the equations is MS's Cambria Math. You can apply another font within a document but the result may not be what you expect. There are a couple of 3rd party ones being developed, but last I checked they were still not released, such as http://www.stixfonts.org . ============= "tips6" wrote in message ...

Hello Matt
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 |

If it is at all possible, adding the fonts in the normal way for Windows
through Control Panel, Fonts, Add New Fonts dialog. Once installed, run Word and see if the option to select one of the new fonts from the EE Ribbon Tools, Dialog. If the dialog still only shows Cambria Maths, then you will have to create your Es using Cambria Maths and when done, select the Es and use the Font dialog to change the font to one of the new ones installed. However, I'm not convinced that it will work. It may require registry hacking and if the new fonts are not 100% compatible, then it may cause real problems. Terry "Vincent" wrote in message ...

Hello Terry,
I've tried all your suggestions (besides registry hacking). The dialog, in this case, still uses Cambria Math. When I attempt to change the font of the equation, the font returns to Cambria Math again, even if the equation only contains numerals or text. I would be interested in the registry hacking, though, if possible. Vincent |
