There are many Mac users who need to add equations within their MicrosoftOffice programs -- most of these users work with the free Equation Editorthat is bundled as part of Microsoft Office. Others upgrade from EquationEditor to MathType to get even more options to use in their equations. Sowhen Microsoft released Office 2008 for the Mac, it was a matter of timeuntil a new version of MathType was released.
