Teach you how to make beautiful mathematical formulas in Word like latex

Reprinted from: http://blog.csdn.net/ibingow/article/details/8613556

Remember a long time ago in Word to play mathematical formula is very painful, to use the mouse point Ah point, the efficiency is very low, including those tools like MathType. Then the Office 2007 formula is not the same, the editor has a huge improvement, for we like to use the keyboard classmate. Almost all mathematical symbols correspond to a single command, and the Latex commands are similar to the one in which the formula is played. In fact, I was at the beginning of the keyboard to find the formula editor these functions, and then by feeling and experience to find the various symbols of the input method. one of thebig advantages of Word formula in comparison to Latex is that you can immediately see the symbols you're playing, unlike Latex, which you see as a bunch of code, to see if the formula has to compile, what syntax errors to compile. Microsoft has done a pretty good job of this. So since I found word this function decisively abandoned LaTex, every time I see the students to play formula distress when all want to go to help a.

The following is a description of the usage of the Formula Editor I know.

0. Start typing the formula

Press ALT and = at the same time . This is where you'll find a formula input box appears, and the toolbar above also has the Formula Editor bar programmed.

1. Font Preparation

The input formula in Office 2007 defaults to the normal font, which is hard to see, and we need italic, hold down "Ctrl" and "I". after 2010 The default italic looks like, at least 2013 in the English input method is yes.

2. Command structure

The command is preceded by a backslash "\", followed by a string of characters (usually very image), ending with a space. For example, hit the first wax letter Alpha, then it is first lost "\" and then lost "Alpha", and finally press the space bar just entered the content will become the Greek alphabet.

3. Greek alphabet

The Greek alphabet is the simplest, generally the letter of the IPA is its command, as long as you can read, you will play. Fortunately, when I was in junior high school, I would recite the Greek alphabet and fight without pressure.

The Greek alphabet has a case, and the formula Editor you only have to capitalize the letters of the first letter of the command.

It is worth noting that some letters have many forms, such as \epsilon and \varepsilon, which are a little different. No research has been done on this.

4. Common operators

Partial differential operator:"\partial"

Limit:"\limit" (press space will show a long string of default, then the space becomes a mathematical formula)

Points:"\int"

Sum: Sigma with "\sigma" capitalization

Gradient operator (that is, inverted triangle):"\nabla" (I remember only one teacher taught us how to read this symbol, that is , Nabla, can look up the word)

Dot multiplication (e.g. inner product):"\bullet"

Cross multiplication (e.g., outer product, curl):"\times"

The vector arrows above the letters:"\hvec". If A is a vector, then "A\hvec" can display that arrow above a, note that it is two spaces!  

Brackets (automatically change size based on the complexity of the formula): You can add "\begin" and "\end" to each side of the normal parenthesized formula , and then spaces.

where "\begin" is displayed,"\end" is displayed,"\begin 1/2t (\pi\sqrtt/th (\pi\sqrt t-1) \end \to\xi (2)" appears as

Radical:"\sqrt"

Fractional: Is the ordinary "/", after the press of the space to change the format, where the molecules are difficult to grasp, the molecule is generally "/" before all the characters, not including the +-and other symbols (these symbols are displayed clearly in the symbol on both sides of the space more, like there are spaces). such as playing "ABC/D", then the molecule is "abc", if it is "AB+C/D", then the molecule is c.

The role of the space: when the scoring type, before the molecule with a space, and then start the scoring type, then you can ensure that the molecule is the space time "/" before the content. Like "Ab C/D", so the molecule is C .

Just list these, you can move the mouse over a symbol above the toolbar to dock for a while and display its commands.

5. Upper and Lower Mark

It looks like latex and can be guessed by himself. Add subscript to a symbol, then add "_" after this symbol and then follow the contents, press the space, it becomes subscript. Superscript is "^" plus the contents, and then spaces.

The upper and lower bounds of the integral symbol and the summation symbol are also so called.

6. Symbol even hit

For example, the integral symbol upper and lower limit, you can first hit the integral symbol "\int", and then continue to the superscript "_a^b". You can also play "\int_a^b" directly. Where A is the lower limit andB is the upper limit.

If it is two consecutive commands (or the next one is an operator), then you can start the second command without a blank space before the command is ready.

such as "\sqrt\pi" and "\sqrt \pi" the same.

7. Custom symbol Commands

If you think the command is too long to remember, it doesn't matter, and Microsoft takes that into account, theFormula Editor for office supports custom commands. In the formula editing State of the toolbar (you can click on the top of the "design" "formula" to show it looks like) to the left there is a "tool", it has an arrow in the lower right corner, the point, will pop up a dialog box, there are two long buttons in the middle, click on the first "mathematical formula auto-complete" ( In the form of mathematical symbols and commands, you can modify the existing ones, or you can add symbols that are not present. We recommend that you generally browse through the symbols you will use.

such as the Greek alphabet Alpha, you can change to "\a", then the input "\a" will become Alpha. You can also set the use of commands in non-formula editing mode. Very convenient.

Problem:

Some of the symbols are still hard to beat (at least I haven't figured it out yet) and have to click the mouse. Like how to play the matrix

Summarize:

Microsoft's Formula Editor is very powerful, I hope this article can be helpful to the students of the math department. ppt In the formula is the same.
