Does the internal formula writer not work for you? It's pretty handy whenever I go to do integrals and/or summations. – kobaltz Sep 28 '11 at 4:58
It is very slow compared to Latex. – Tim Sep 28 '11 at 5:46

Wouldn't it be simple to write everything in LaTeX? – N.N. Sep 28 '11 at 8:55

You can use Latex in Word.

It provides macros for Microsoft Word that allow the use of LaTeX input to create equations images in both inline and display modes without having to install any software on the local computer. As far as I know, this is the only free alternative to the paid programs like Aurora and TexPoint.

For Office 2007, go to Latex in Word Project Page on Source Forge, and click on Word 2007 under Files.

LaTeX in Word is a GPL-licensed tool that allows equations to be used in Microsoft Word documents. The client-side of the program is implemented as VBA macros in the document "LaTeXinWord_v_0_3_1.docm" along with instructions. Hence, this file contains the source code, implementation, and documentation.
