MathType Equation Issues

Occasionally, double-clicking on a MathType equation after an eXtyles process has been run will open an entirely different equation for editing. The problem is related to the save to RTF that's performed "under the hood" by eXtyles. In some cases (which have not been clearly defined to Inera), saving a Word document to RTF (even without eXtyles installed) will cause this problem with MathType equations when the RTF file is then closed and reopened. To avoid this behavior, run the MathType menu function Convert Equations on the Whole Document with the type set to Convert Equations to MathType equations.

Note that this conversion does not work properly in some versions of MathType 5.x. It does, however, work in the most recent versions of MathType 5.

A tech note from Design Science provides information related to this issue.
