In my experience using Mathtype to connect various versions of Word with
various DTP apps (including Frame), the only reliable way to reproduce
equations is to paste them into Illustrator, fix the problems, export
each equation as EPS (or AI), and import each equation into the DTP app.
This is slow and painful, but OLE is worse.

HI All,
We have math equations that we get from the engineers in MS Word
docsuments.
We usually need to copy these equations into our unstructured FM files
for the customer.
We're currently on Win7 OS and FM10.
-When we copy equations from Word docs (that were created in Word
2003, then saved as Word 2010), into FM (Special Paste>Embedded
Object), then all is fine and you can double click the equation, open
it and continue to edit as a Word object if needed. I'm assuming these
equations were written using Math Type or Equation Editor 3.0
-However, when we import equations from Word files originally created
in Word 2010 (it seems Word has its own equation editor), then when
importing (Special Paste>Embeded Document Word Microsoft Object ) into
FM, then we get loads of question marks and H's as opposed to the
equation. If we double click on the equation, it opens properly in
Word 2010. Saving the page as PDF shows only the question marks.
Using any of the other special paste options turns the equation into
an image.
Does anyone have any ideas on how to get the equation to show properly
in FM?
Thanks,
Orly.
