Equation editors converter

[edit]

Is there a way to convert between the equations witten in Open Office Equation Editor and Microsoft Eq Editor in order to be viewed in the latter?--5.2.200.163 (talk) 13:51, 7 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Also how can LaTex code (in Open Office word processor) be rendered to give equations in Microsoft Equation Editor?(Thanks).--5.2.200.163 (talk) 13:55, 7 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

As a general (golden?) rule I find that Microsoft stuff is very uncooperative with non Microsoft stuff and it not worth the effort to try to achieve compatibility – waists too much time and often can't be done. Don't know what you're doing but suggest you focus on just LaTex. Then convert those files into a PDF or something.--Aspro (talk) 21:48, 7 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
