Dear Randy et al,
May I suggest Lyx, an open-source wysiwyg editor that outputs
Latex. The interface is so much like other word processors that
it is a snap to learn quickly and you get those Latex files with
equations that journals, at least math and physics journals, like.
Maybe you could get

Hi All,
what happened to Randy happened to me several times in the past, with one
most remarkable example being editing the 47 page long text that were
mostly formulas. While most responses so far suggest using latex or flavors
thereof, I for one would still be using MS Word mostly because I find

Hi Randy,
You could try the beta version of the forthcoming version of Word and see if
the bug is fixed. Obviously, it is a beta version and therefore a bit risky
but it installs along side the current version and I’ve been trying it on my

Do your collaborators need to edit the equations? If not you can use
LaTeXiT (sorry I'm that person!) which allows you to write your equation
in LaTeX then export directly into word as a pdf. Link below..

Hi Randy, although learning Latex as a whole can for sure be
time-consuming, an alternative solution is to use a Latex equation
editor like Latexit. You just have to learn the (easy) equation syntax
and then you can drag and drop the formatted result into Word or Page,
it's rock solid :
