[QUOTE="Kaham, post: 1060657, member: 151522"] Unfortunately, Office for Mac 2008 does not support Equations made with the equation editor. I made the same mistake when purchasing it, expecting the functionality of 2007 to be present. (As you can see in your screenshot, it goes into compatibility mode, which is office 2003-equivalent, and as you may know, office 2003 does not support these equations either). As far as I know, our only hope is waiting until the next office is released (somewhere around summer/fall?). Until then I use office 2007 under Win7, through a Parallels setup. Its too bad, but it just cant be done. I am not sure if iWork or OpenOffice provide a solution for this, I am still looking into those packages. [/QUOTE]
