MathType knows all about the Euclid Math Two font, so it realizes that the !
and " symbols are binary operators, just like
∪ and ∩, and it puts the correct
spacing around them automatically. If you use characters from more obscure
fonts, you'll have to take a few extra steps to get this automatic spacing to work.
To learn more about MathType's knowledge of fonts, and how you can extend it,
see Chapter 8.
Tutorial 14: Creating Web Pages with
Microsoft Word
The Export to MathPage command provides the easiest way to convert Microsoft
Word documents containing equations into Web pages. It’s based on Word’s
Save as Web Page command, but solves the problems this command has
handling equations. Chapter 6 contains more details on the background behind
this process; this tutorial will show you how easy it is to produce great-looking
technical Web pages.
1. Open Microsoft Word and create a new document containing the following:
We know that an equation of the form
=
++
2
yax bxc has two roots,
but the roots are not always distinct. Take, for example, the equation
(1.1)
()()
=++
=+ +
2
44
22
yx x
xx.
From equation (1.1), we can see that
=
−=2 when 0.xy
Create the equations using the MathType commands Insert Inline Equation and
Insert Right-Numbered Display Equation. Create the reference using the Insert
Equation Reference command. Refer to Tutorial 6 if you don’t remember how to
align the two lines of the display equation.
