Workaround 1: Steal the equations from Word If you want some other color, it's a big problem. Short version: If you're using a white or light background and don't mind equations in black type, you have no problem. In previous versions of PowerPoint, you could use the Recolor command on the Format dialog box to change black to any other color. MathType allows more extensive formatting than the free Equation Editor.Įquation Editor lets you insert equations in black text. Of course MathType works in PPT too, and it adds a MathType tab to the PPT and Word Ribbons. One solution is to put Insert/Object on the Quick Access Toolbar (QAT - it's in the upper left of the PPT window, to the right of the Office icon). In PPT 2003, it was possible to drag an Equation Editor icon to the toolbar, but you can't do that in PPT 2007. Select Microsoft Equation 3.0 from the list. This will bring up the same Insert Object dialog you're used to seeing in pre-2007 versions of Office.
To access it in PPT 2007, in the Text group on the Ribbon's Insert tab, click on Object.
The same Equation Editor that was in Office 2003 is also in Office 2007, and can be used in both Word and PPT.
Here's how it works, from Bob Mathews of Design Science (the authors of Equation Editor and MathType): You need to create or edit equations in PowerPoint 2007 using the supplied Equation Editor 3 software. If you want to keep your object, you can add it to a hidden slide as a trick.Using Equation Editor with PowerPoint 2007 Problem However, notice that you will lose your object in case you need to make changes later. Then you can re-insert the image into your slide and apply a color change to the image. If you want to change the color of a Microsoft Equations object then you can right click and save the equation as PNG image. This can be a problem if your slide background uses a dark color for example. The drawback about using Microsoft Equations 3.0 is that you can’t change the equation color. How to change the Color of a Microsoft Equations object This way, you can use Microsoft Equations to display equations and formulas in PowerPoint 20. Now, click File -> Update, or just F3 to return to your slide and you can see the equation embedded into the presentation. Then, the editor will open and here you can insert your formula or equation. In one of our previous articles we have showed you how to add a matrix in PowerPoint using the Microsoft Equations object and insert other formulas for Maths in PowerPoint.įirst, you need to click Insert -> Object and then choose Microsoft Equations 3.0
