"Is it the only lesson of history that mankind is unteachable?" Unfortunately, while you can copy an equation from Mathcad to Word, it comes in as single-line text and formatting is not preserved. If either the free of expensive version of Mathcad will suit your purposes, you may want to try it. One final thought: the free Mathcad Prime 2.0 Express (and by implication, the expensive Mathcad Prime 2.0) does NOT shrink integrals that are part of a fraction. I also vaguely recall that the original Equation Editor was a non-Microsoft add-in. I started using Equation Editor back in the 1990s and I vaguely recall that the early versions handled this differently. I understand they listen once in a while. Besides IRstuff's recommendation, the best I can do is suggest you forward a complaint/suggestion to Microsoft. (That sounded almost like The Most Interesting Man in the World pitching Dos Equis, but I assure you it wasn't ) Word needs a "format to full size" option in Equation Editor. I don't see a way to fix this.Īlthough I don't typically use the integral symbol when I use Equation Editor, and never in a fraction, I completely agree that this is a problem. I even made a "full-sized" integral and copied into one of the placeholders in a stand-up fraction and it reformatted the full-sized integral symbol to a tiny integral symbol. I'd be happy to find a better solution, other than placing a line drawing object over the relevant area of the equation.I just checked Equation Editor in Word 2010 and it behaves just as you described for Word 2007.

It also doesn't scale to larger (wider) objects since you're just getting a slash character on top, not a real diagonal line from the top right corner to the bottom left. It's hard to insert and impossible to edit properly. There are a few limitations to this approach. In this example it will produce 3 with a slash.

The \O flag stands for "Overstrike", and it superimposes its parameters on top of each other. In the Field codes textbox type EQ \O(3,/). On the field name list choose Eq and click the Field Codes button. Select the numerator, then on the Insert tab click Quick Parts and choose Field. Insert a new equation object and add a fraction object, type 7 as the denominator. Let's take 3/7 as an example and cancel the 3: I've struggled with this before and the solution below is the closest I got. The LaTeX cancel command is not supported in Word's equation editor.
