This is a very good package, and you can even cut formulaes you have already inserted in your document, back to the formula editor. Another thing that might bother people is that WORD :-( fails to use the baseline offset information supplied by most typesetting programs for the Macintosh. Disclaimer: I have used LaTeX, but have now settled down with NISUS, which is the state of the art wordprocessor for the Macintosh (free demo available from jon@weber.ucsd.edu), and Expressionist which I think is the best price/performance ratio in mathematical typesetting (apart from OzTeX). Disclaimer disclaimer: I am not connected with Paragon Concepts or the company making Expressionist in any way. I just happened to have bought their products. -- ******************************************************* Povl H. Pedersen hp48sx@wuarchive.wustl.edu HP48sx archive maintainer
