Nowadays, many netizens use MathType software, but many friends say that they still cannot solve the problem of garbled display of mathematical symbols. What should I do? Today, let’s take a look at the solution to the garbled display of MathType mathematical symbols.

1. Double-click the mathematical formula showing the problem in Word, then the MathType formula editor will automatically start.

2. Click the "Define" option under the "Style" menu in the formula editor interface.

3. In the pop-up "Define Style" dialog box, click "Advanced". Then you can see the font settings of the formula editor. Pay special attention to "Variables", "Lowercase Greek Letters" and "Symbols". For the three settings, if the font here is not supported by your system, the formula editor will not be able to display the mathematical formula correctly.

4. You can select the font you like and has been installed in your system in the corresponding drop-down list box, so that the formula can be displayed correctly after setting it. It is recommended that variables use the "Times New Roman" font, and lowercase Greek letters and symbols use the "Symbol" font. Under normal circumstances, Windows systems have these two fonts installed by default.

Tip: If you see garbled characters in Word, but after entering the formula editor, you see the correctly displayed formula, and after exiting the formula editor, it becomes garbled characters again. In fact, this is because the formula editor automatically uses the font supported by your system to display the formula, but it is not updated to the Word document. At this time, you only need to click "File - Update xxx Document" in the formula editor , or press the shortcut key "Ctrl+S" to update the formula font to the document. After exiting, you can see that the formula is displayed normally.
