Free Equation Editor

Free Equation Editor is an efficient and practical software solution created for individuals who often find themselves in the need to write down mathematical or scientific equations, as it can help them work with a wide range of special characters and save the results to images.

The application experiences a brief installation process, with no particularly noteworthy events, following which users can launch it and begin working with it immediately, thanks to its fairly intuitive looks.

The main window of Free Equation Editor features a ribbon where all the categories of symbols can be found in dedicated menus, letting users work with the ones they need, while from the ‘File’ menu, the final product can be exported.

The program comprises multiple special characters in order to help users type even the most complex of equations in just a few mouse clicks. It includes ‘Math Symbols’, ‘Typeface’ signs, ‘Measure’ units, ‘Shape Symbols’, ‘Greek Capital’ letters and symbols, ‘Arrows’, ‘Brackets’, ‘Logarithm Symbols’, ‘Functions’, ‘Integrals’, ‘Matrices’ and ‘Fractions’.

Each menu comprises different characters and signs which can be inserted by clicking them; some of them can be customized by entering additional letters and numbers, as keyboard buttons remain usable, so users can also write text (explanations, notes, etc).

While the utility features a ‘Zoom in / Zoom out’ function, the font, size and color cannot be adjusted to suit certain requirements or for emphasis purposes. The typed equations cannot be copied to clipboard, they can only be saved to image format, JPG, BMP, PNG, GIF, TIFF and others.

Free Equation Editor proves to be a handy, albeit slightly limited application that can assist users in their equation writing tasks, enabling them to work with numerous symbols and signs, with only a couple of mouse clicks.
