I concur to what Alan says. Equations is what this program was written for
in the first place. I'm not so familiar with MathType but I think the user
should get more familiar with Frame Equations as it is pretty obvious he
underestimates them.

What do you mean? Can you be more specific please. I have never had a
problem with it causing crashes, or with equations not displaying
correctly.
saving them as *.gif files, and importing them to FM into an
anchored frame. The issue is that the text elements and sub/ superscripts
look fuzzy. They look even worse after converting to Adobe PDF.
As others have said, GIF is not a print format. It is a screen only
format.
I also tried saving the MathType file as *.eps (an archived message
indicated this was possible). FM 7.2 does not accept importing *.eps
into an
anchored frame.
Yes it does. And GIF, PDF, WMF, EMF, ... Have you tried using a different
format?
I tried copying the equation from MathType and pasting it
into FM.
Something I have always found that results in problems. MathType is not
the same program as FM and will use different internal commands to create
its files.
It accepts the text and super/subscripts, but not the symbols.
That stands to reason. The text are characters and can be copied as such
onto the clip board. The symbols are probably drawn by MathType and exist
as a series of commands within the program until the file is exported as
some interchange format like EPS or PDF. So copying and pasting from
MathType is not the same as exporting to a file and importing into FM.
In the meantime, the engineers I support are quite displeased with the
Adobe
rendering of equations.
There are few who do it better.
My concern is the possibility of having to return to
Microsoft Word, which supports MathType. Thank you.
That is always your choice. You should not blame us, Adobe or anyone else
for you the choices you make.
