Microsoft Word for Mac 2011 [ Editor's note: This is a review of the final, shipping version of Microsoft Office 2011 for Mac, provided to Macworld by Microsoft in advance of the suite's general. I can't find Equation Editor in Word on my Mac. It's not a toolbar, and it doesn't exist under insert -> object. Is there somewhere else I'm not looking? Is there a free download that can edit simple equations? (I don't need MathType). The equation editor is a lot more versatile on the Windows version, and was actually missing from the Mac version for a very long time - I just found out it exists.:v permalink embed.
