Duckbeam Posted January 31, 2012 Report Share Posted January 31, 2012 Hi, quick question. How have you guys set up your Microsoft Equation Editor in your word processor? - and are there any specific requirements? All academic maths articles seem to have equations with similar font and size. Even wikipedia. My equation editor is atm. very ugly - unfortunately. Any help will be appreciated Thx, and good luck with the IB! Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
rFumachi Posted January 31, 2012 Report Share Posted January 31, 2012 There are no specific requirements as to what set up to use. I used Microsoft Word 2010 and it includes some sort of built-in support for writing equations, so there is no equation editor and it worked perfectly for me. Remember that maybe the printer will not recognize some characters, and you will end up with a portfolio with blank sections, to avoid this from happening convert your word document to pdf and it should work fine Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just can't seem to find a nice looking equation format! Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Duckbeam Posted February 3, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 3, 2012 I ended up using this online LaTeX based equation editor: http://www.codecogs.com/latex/eqneditor.phpIt makes it look so much nicer than the equation editor in Word (2003 that is.)
