It seems that academic community is of no priority for OO developers, thus such compatibility bug is simply ignored. This is sad. We gave up in our lab and installed MS Word under virtual machines on all computers. Few users are lost. Not a big deal of course, but I'll warn about this bug all my

Hi all, This problem is easily fixed. It is due to the fact that MathType uses the Symbol font which is not installed by default in Ubuntu. You need to install this font (attached to this comment). To do so, download the font to your home directory, open a console and type: sudo cp symbol.ttf

In addition to my last comment, you may need to set the correct permissions after installing the font. In a console type: sudo chmod 655 /usr/share/fonts/truetype/symbol.ttf [press Enter] Does anyone know, can we get this font included in the MS core TrueType fonts package to solve this
