Linear format equations using UnicodeMath and LaTeX in Word

To insert an equation using the keyboard, press ALT+ =, and then type the equation.

You can insert equation symbols outside a math region by using Math AutoCorrect. For more information, see Use Math AutoCorrect rules outside of math regions check box.

You can also create math equations using on the keyboard using a combination of keywords and math autocorrect codes. New to Word for Microsoft 365 subscribers is the ability to type math using the LaTeX syntax; details described below.

Type equations in linear format

Linear format is a representation of math on one line in documents. There are two linear formats for math that Word supports:.

• Unicode math
• LaTeX math

Depending on your preferred input format, you can create equations in Word in either one of UnicodeMath or LaTeX formats by selecting the format from the Equations tab.

Create fractions in linear formats

To create a fraction using these different formats with subscript,

• Enter your equation using Alt + = on the keyboard.
• To convert the equation to Professional format, choose Convert > Professional, or use Ctrl + =. To convert a Professional equation back to a linear format, press Ctrl + Shift + =.
  

Examples

Format	Input	Output
Unicode Math	a/(b+c)
LateX	\frac{a}{b+c}

UnicodeMath editing examples

UnicodeMath resembles real mathematical notation the most in comparison to all of the math linear formats, and it is the most concise linear format, though some may prefer editing in the LaTeX input over UnicodeMath since that is widely used in academia.

You can type most equations in UnicodeMath quickly by using Math AutoCorrect codes. For example, to align an equation array, you can use @ and &, as in the following:

\eqarray(x+1&=2@1+2+3+y&=z@3/x&=6)<space>

which resolves to:

Here are some other examples:

Example	UnicodeMath format	Built-up format
Vectors	(abc)\vec<space><space>
	(abc)\hat<space><space>
Boxed formula	\rect(a/b)<space>
Brackets	(a+b/c)<space>
	{a+b/c}<space>
Brackets with separators	{a/b\vbar<space>x+y\vbar<space>}<space>
Fractions	a/(b+c)<space>
LeftSubSup	_a^b<space>x<space>
Limit	lim_(n->\infty)<space>n
Matrix	(\matrix(a&b@c&d))<space>
Nary	\iint_(a=0)^\infty<space><space>a
Over/Underbar	\overbar(abc)<space>
	\overbrace(a+b)<space>
Radicals	\sqrt(5&a^2)<space>

Microsoft Office uses the linear format described in Unicode Technical Note 28 to build up and display mathematical expressions. For more information, including how to quickly type up and build equations, see Unicode Nearly Plain-Text Encoding of Mathematics.

LaTeX equation editing examples

LaTeX equation editing supports most of the common LaTeX mathematical keywords. To create a 3x3 matrix equation in the LaTeX format, type the following into a math zone:

A=\{\matrix{a&b&c\\d&e&f\\g&h&j}\}

This will build into the following professional equation:

Here are some other examples of LaTeX expressions that can be built-up into a professional format.

Example	LaTeX Examples	Built-up format
Vectors	\vec{abc}
	\hat{abc}
Boxed formula	\rect{\frac{a}{b}}
Brackets	\left( a + \frac{b}{c} \right)
	\left{ a + \frac{b}{c} \right}
Brackets with separators	\left{\frac{a}{b}\left|x+y\right|\right}
Fractions	\frac{a}{b+c}
LeftSubSup	{_a^b}x
Limit	\lim\below{n \rightarrow \infty} n
Matrix	\matrix{a & b \\ c & d}
Nary	\iint_{a=0}^{\infty} a
Over/Underbar	\overbar{abc}
	\overbrace{a+b}
Radicals	\sqrt[5]{a^2}

Most LaTeX expressions are supported in this new feature to Word; a list of exceptions is provided below for LaTeX keywords that are not currently supported.

Unsupported LaTeX Keywords	Symbol
\eqarray	█
\Middle	ⓜ
\ldiv	∕
\dsmash	↓

Some LaTeX expressions take a slightly different syntax than might be expected.

For example, LaTeX matrices are often created using the following syntax:

\begin{matrix} a & b \\ c & d \end{matrix}

However \begin{} and \end{} keywords are not supported in Word, so instead, a LaTeX matrix input takes simply \matrix{} and would look like:

\matrix{a & b \\ c & d}

Automatically convert expressions to professional format

Microsoft Word’s Autocorrect feature simplifies the process of typing mathematical expressions by automatically converting them into a professional format. This functionality is useful when you work in a UnicodeMath mode. You can turn on or turn off this setting by selecting the appropriate box in the Equation Options dialog box.

Type one of the following codes followed by a delimiting term. When entering a code, use a punctuation mark, or press the SPACEBAR or ENTER key. For instance, typing \circ followed by a space will convert to the degree symbol (∘).

Cambria Math is the default font available in the Equations Options dialog box. To ensure consistency, go to the Home tab, and within the Font group, select Cambria Math. This will align the symbols displayed in the document with those in the AutoCorrect box.
