So editing equations in older *.doc files requires “bringing them forward” into the new format (even if only to modify an equation, and even if the document is then saved back out as a *.doc file, not as a *.docx file). The downside is that Compatibility Mode automatically reformats all documents according to Office 2010 requirements, even if they are (were) *.doc files instead of *.docx files before opening. Now the equation editor that’s built in will work in all docs old and new, and so will the Mathematics tab add-in that you mention. At that point you have the choice of making just this document mode “compatible” or all future docs too. That add-in *does not work* with Office 2010, because “the equation editor is already a part of MS Word 2010.”īut not automatically a part. In Office 2007 there was an add-in called Microsoft Equation Editor 3.0, which could be selected during installation or folded in later by running a separate program. But getting it working is trickier than in Office 2007. I even did the installation twice to make sure that I didn’t miss an “equation editor” option the first time. I have a new installation of MS Office 2010 on my new office computer, and the Equation Editor isn’t working in it. And the mathematics is a bit buggy sometimes.Īll in all, despite its flaws, I highly recommend it! It’s really handy to have it right there in Word. The graphing capabilities aren’t very customizable. In this document, I highlight some of it’s features and some of it’s flaws. All of the output in red is generated by the mathematics add-in package. Here’s some sample output in word format or pdf(the image above is just the first little bit of this five-page document). But I like it because (A) my expectations were low and (B) it’s right inside Microsoft Word, and it’s nicely integrated into the new equation editor, which as you know, I love.

It’s not as powerful as Mathematica or my TI-89, or even other free CAS like WolframAlpha or Geogebra (yes, Geogebra has a CAS now and it’s not beta!). I’m impressed with its ability to graph, do calculations, and manipulate algebraic expressions using its computer algebra system (CAS).

I was even able to install it at work on my locked-down limited-permissions account without needing administrative privileges. It’s a super quick and easy installation–doesn’t require a reboot or anything.
It works with Microsoft Office 2007 or later.
Maybe it’s old news to you, but I recently downloaded the Mathematics Add-In for Word and One-Note (download from Mircrosoft for free, right here).
