Design Science Releases MathType 6 for Windows

Design Science announced the release of MathType 6 for Windows, a major upgrade that is compatible with Microsoft Office 2007 and Windows Vista. New features include TeX input, the ability to copy equations to and from Wikipedia, and more. MathType is the full-featured, professional version of the Equation Editor in Microsoft Office and many other products, and is used by math and science educators, engineers, research scientists, students and publishing professionals to include mathematical notation in printed documents, presentations and web pages. MathType 6 takes full advantage of Office 2007's new Ribbon user interface by adding a new MathType tab in Word and PowerPoint to do equation operations in documents and presentations, and introduces new equation numbering and browse features that work with all Word 2007 equation types. MathType 6 enables the user to copy equations from existing TeX documents, and scientists who already know the TeX typesetting language can now type expressions directly into MathType. MathType is US $57 for academic users, $97 for non-academic users; upgrades are US $37 for academic users, $49 for non-academic users. http://www.dessci.com
