Microsoft Equation Editor What Is Equation Editor? Equation Editor, a special version of the MathType equation editor from Design Science, Inc., is customized for use with Microsoft applications. Using Equation Editor, you can build complex equations by picking symbols from a toolbar and typing variables and numbers. As you build an equation, Equation Editor automatically adjusts font sizes, spacing, and formatting in keeping with mathematical typesetting conventions. Easy-to-Use Toolbar with Symbols and Templates The top row of the Equation Editor toolbar has buttons for inserting more than 150 mathematical symbols, many of which are not available in the standard Symbol font. To insert a symbol in an equation, click a button on the top row of the toolbar, and then click the specific symbol from the palette that appears under the button. The bottom row of the Equation Editor toolbar has buttons for inserting templates or frameworks that contain such symbols as fractions, radicals, summations, integrals, products, matrices, and various fences or matching pairs of symbols such as brackets and braces. Many templates contain slots spaces into which you type text and insert symbols. There are about 10 templates, grouped on palettes. You can nest templates insert templates in the slots of other templates to build complex hierarchical formulas. Copyright 000. NISD Instructional Technology. All Rights Reserved. 3

Launching Equation Editor Using OLE (Object Linking and Embedding), you can create and edit equations within other applications Word, Publisher, PowerPoint, etc.). File menu, choose Exit And Return To Document. The equation is updated in the document. 1. From the Insert menu, click the Object command.. Double-click Microsoft Equation 3.0 from the list of Create New objects.

Inserting Mathematical Templates in an Equation Templates are symbols with one or more empty slots, such as a radical or a fraction. Tips & Tricks for Using Equation Editor Use the four directional arrow keys to move the cursor. The size and shape of the insertion point tell you where the next text you type or symbols you insert will appear.

Creating a Table of Contents in Word: Erica s Science Project To create a table of contents, you first apply the built-in heading styles (Heading 1 through Heading 9) to the headings you want to include in the table of contents. Once you've applied the styles, you can choose a design and build the finished table of contents. When you build a table of contents, Word searches for headings with the specified styles, sorts them by heading level, references their page numbers, and displays the table of contents in the document. Look at the Table of Contents in this manual for an example. Once you build a table of contents, you can use it to quickly navigate an online document. Just click any page number in the table of contents to jump to the corresponding heading in the document. Guided Practice: Erica s Science Project Open the ScienceProject file from the diskette supplied by your instructor. Scroll through the document s fourteen pages. You will see that it has already been formatted attractively. It even has page numbers! The only thing it is missing is the Table of Contents on page. Apply the Heading 1 Style 1. Select the word Abstract on page 3.. Format > Style 3. Select Heading 1 from the list of Styles. Then, click the Modify button. Copyright 000. NISD Instructional Technology. All Rights Reserved. 3

4. Click the Format button and then the Font command. 5. On the Font tab, select Times New Roman, Bold, 14 point. This will not change the appearance of the word Abstract because it was already formatted this way. But now, the Heading 1 Style is also formatted with this same appearance. 6. Click OK.

Using a Watermark in Word What is a Watermark? A watermark is any graphic that appears behind a document s text on printed pages. For example, you could use a watermark when you want your school logo or an image from the Clip Gallery to appear lightly in the background of each printed page. Also, Word Art can be used to create a nice watermark for text such as Sample, Confidential, and Draft. Creating a Watermark 1. Begin a new blank document in Word.. View > Header and Footer 3. Insert > Picture > Clip Art 4. Select an image and double click to insert it into the header. 5. Zoom out to 5% to resize and reposition the image. 6. With the image selected, use buttons on the Picture Toolbar to format the image as a watermark: (If the Picture Toolbar is not visible, right-click the image to Show Picture Toolbar.) Image Control button > Black & White Image Control button > Watermark Text Wrapping button > None 7. Close the Header and Footer view. 8. Type some text to verify that the watermark works as expected. Note 1: The image may be placed in the footer instead of the header. Note : The watermark can be created in an existing document as well as in a new document. Copyright 000. NISD Instructional Technology. All Rights Reserved. 8

Using a Custom Macro in Word What is a Macro? A macro is a sequence of Word actions that you can record. You can then run the macro, simply by pressing a key(s) on the keyboard, whenever you need to perform this sequence in any document. For example, if you often need to insert a specifically formatted table in your documents, you can record a macro that inserts the table with the correct borders, size, and number of rows and columns. When you're recording a macro, you can use the mouse to click commands and options, but the macro recorder doesn't record mouse movements in a document window. You must use the keyboard to record these actions. When you're recording a macro, you can temporarily pause recording and then resume recording where you stopped. Guided Practice: The Memo Writer For this example, you will create a macro that will allow you to start a memo with: Margins appropriate for the Instructional Technology letterhead stationary Appropriate, generic memo text The system date The cursor positioned to type the memo recipient on the TO: line Note: This scenario could also be accomplished by saving a Document Template, but a macro is quicker to run. Recording a Macro 1. Tools > Macro > Record. As the Macro Name, type MemoLetterhead. 3. Click the Keyboard button. 4. For Press New Shortcut Key, hold CTRL and press M L (for Memo Letterhead). 5. Click the Assign button. 6. Click the Close button. 7. You are now recording and will see this pair of buttons to Stop or Pause Recording Copyright 000. NISD Instructional Technology.

8. Create the following text: TO: <TAB> <ENTER> <ENTER> FROM: <TAB> Kelly Smith, Instructional Specialist for Technology <ENTER> <ENTER> SUBJECT: <TAB> <ENTER> <ENTER> DATE: <TAB> 9. With your cursor after the tab on the DATE: line, use these keystrokes to insert the system date: ALT I > T > ALT U Arrow to the 3 rd date format Press <ENTER> 10. Arrow up in the document to leave the cursor after the tab on the TO: line 11. Use these keystrokes to set margins: ALT F > U > Alt M TAB to set the top margin at.5 TAB to set the left margin at 1 TAB to set the right margin at 1 Press <ENTER> 1. Use your mouse to click the Stop Recording button. Running Your Macro 1. Begin a new document.. Hold CTRL and press M L (for Memo Letterhead). 3. Notice that your cursor is ready for you to begin typing on the TO: line and your margins are correct for the letterhead stationary. Copyright 000. NISD Instructional Technology.
