Writing equations in words, how to accomplish

I want to express a number of equations on words, as opposed to symbols.
Since the word descriptions are often six words or more I'm looking for a solution in PAGES that allows me to create what are essentially text boxes side by side. Then of course this has to be done for numerator and denominator so that we get N/D.
I tried using text boxes inside text boxes but pages doesn't appear to support TBs inside TBs.
If anyone has solved this problem within PAGES I'd be grateful for suggestions.
My only other thought on how to do this is to create an image in Pixalmator or similar program and then insert the whole image into PAGES.
Thanks

Hi Peter:
Thanks for your inspired idea, rather clever.
For other readers I'll mention that I had to revamp your idea slightly, using two columns I accomplished a statement with 3 items in the D and 3 in the N

  • Read equations from word document programatically

    hi
    its too difficult to problem i think but soluation is there.
    i want to read equations from word document using java. i was tried in xml prser also ,there i can 't find the equation format.
    any body tell me how to extract equation from word .

    Everyone that has posted that you have 2 problems is absolutly correct, you will have to use some 3rd party product to read the file, or make your own MS-Word decoder--a task for which MS itself has problems doing reliably between versions. You could set up some DDE or OLE via Java/C and Excel... have fun it that is your choosen path, you'll want to talk to them in the JNI forum on how to get started there.
    As far as parsing, you have to be able to identify the formula, is it an Excel formula? If so, then you have to be able to copy the formula, it does not show as text in cells. If it is not a formula, but just text in a cell, then copy it into a String in Java.
    Now you have the String, use String.split or other tokenizer to break the String appart, and then you have to process the tokens. Nobody here is going to write the front end of an interpreter for you to process your sting into appropriat logic and tokens.
    The task you embark on is not one of triviality, but can be done. The real question is: "Is it really worth it to you?" Only you can answer that. If you need refernce material for parsing--look up discussions of language, compiler, and interpreter development--most of the ones I've run across have excellent discussions on parsing and tokenizing.

  • I cannot find a way to sort the bookmark folders themselves alphabetically by name.I am not talking about in a view mode but in the way they are displayed when I click on my bookmarks tab. Can someone explain to me how to accomplish this.

    I have a lot of various book mark folders with websites contained within each folder. I am able to sort the websites within each folder alphabetically by name but I cannot find a way to sort the bookmark folders themselves alphabetically by name.I am not talking about in a view mode but in the way they are displayed when I click on my bookmarks tab. Can someone explain to me how to accomplish this other than manually dragging them as this is extremely hard for me due to the fact that I am a quadriplegic with limited hand movement dexterity

    Bookmark folders that you created are in the Bookmarks Menu folder. "Sort" that folder.

  • Exporting photos for UHDTV or Native 4K TV, what are the best settings ? (File: Quality File: Color Space, Image Sizing and resolution)   Or in other words; How can I get the smallest files but keep good quality for display on new UHDTV

    Exporting photos for UHDTV or Native 4K TV, what are the best settings ? (File: Quality File: Color Space, Image Sizing and resolution)   Or in other words; How can I get the smallest files but keep good quality for display on new UHDTV

    You're welcome, and thank you for the reply.
    2) Yesterday I made the subclips with the In-Out Points and Command-U, the benefit is that I've seen the clip before naming it. Now I'm using markers, it's benefit is that I can write comment and (the later) clip name at once, the drawback is that I have to view to the next shot's beginning before knowing what the shot contains.
    But now I found out that I can reconnect my clips independently to the format I converted the master clip to. I reconnected the media to the original AVI file and it worked, too! The more I work with, the more I'm sold on it... - although it doesn't seem to be able to read and use the date information within the DV AVI.
    1) Ok, I tried something similar within FCE. Just worked, but the file size still remains. Which codec settings should I use? Is the export to DV in MOV with a quality of 75% acceptable for both file size and quality? Or would be encoding as H.264 with best quality an option for archiving, knowing that I have to convert it back to DV if I (maybe) wan't to use it for editing later? Or anything else?
    Thank's in advance again,
    André

  • Want an option to having a REAL full-screen view when in writing mode in Word (as there was in 2003)

    For the present Word version (365) I have not found a way to be able to use the entire/total/really full screen estate when using writing mode in Word. (Perhaps there is a way, not discovered by me yet?) But what I want both in Word 365 and foremost in the
    next iteration of Word, is the option to choose - when in writing/editing mode - the entire screen real estate, with NO columns on each side of the screen and with NO Ribbon or other stuff on top and nothing at the bottom of the screen either. 
    This must be possible to establish as an option?! 
    The Word 2003 had such a feature, but it (completely?) disappeared as an option from 2007 and later, as far as I can see, and this lack of being able to choose using a totally blank screen, from bezel to bezel, with no other things than what you write on
    it, is for me and many other writers, who often also use a machine with a rather small screen, a significant missing feature! 
    As I see it, the real estate that is "given away" to give space to the two vertical columns (to give a for me the unnessary and unwanted "impression/illusion" of having to deal with a sheet of paper placed on the middle of the screen),
    this real estate should instead be used as a typing "place". In other words: Many writers and others would really like to be able to use ALL the screen from left to right and from top to bottom to be filled with letters and words! 
    Can and will this technically be done? So that we again (as in 2003) can be given the option to choose (real) full-screen view? 
    I would really like to get some positive feedback from developers and decision makers in the Word developer team at Microsoft about the possibility of re-establishing this now seemingly missing option. 

    Hi,
    Thank you for your feedback.
    As far as I know, this is currently not available in Office 2013. We are sorry that at this time we are not able to edit documents in a full screen mode that "with NO columns on each side of the screen and with NO Ribbon or other stuff on top and
    nothing at the bottom of the screen either. "
    We have passed this information to the product group for consideration for a future product or update.
    Please be assured that our developers strive to capture Microsoft users' ideas and are working hard to create a more powerful and easy-to-use product.
    Thanks for your understanding.

  • Do MathType equations in Word import effectively into iBooks Author?

    I am looking for the best way to build MathType equations in Word to successfully import into iBooks Author.

    That seems like an extra step. Since iBooks Author (iBA) already has a "MathType Equation" command on its Insert menu, why not do it directly from iBA?
    If, however, you want to do it as you describe (or perhaps you have an existing Word document and you want to use its equations in iBA -- that makes sense), you'll need to build the equations in Word, then select the one you want (i.e., click on it once), copy it, then use the Insert > MathType Equation command in iBA. When MathType opens, paste the equation into the window. Close MathType and the equation will insert into iBA.
    Incidentally, WRT TX Aggie SE's suggestion to use the MS Word Equation Editor, I think you'll find that'll produce less than satisfactory results in iBA, no matter if you use the "old" equation editor, or the "new" one that was introduced in Word 2011.

    You might still get charged. Let me know if you still can't get through.

  • After I have converted PDF file to Word how can I select certain pages to save them as a new document? Thank you

    After I have converted PDF file to Word how can I select certain pages to save them as a new document? Thank you

    You've said you have a Word file and want to use some pages in the file to create a new document.
    Use Word to establish a new Word file that has the desired pages for the original Word file.
    You now have a "new document" of the desired pages.
    With Acrobat Standard or Pro installed you can create a "new document" PDF.
    If you do not have Acrobat Standard or Pro or a subscription to an online Adobe service that can create PDF from MS Word you can use the Microsoft process to create PDF that comes with MS Word.
    Be well...

  • Cannot burn an iMovie project to a DVD because the computer can't find iDVD.  Anyone know how to accomplish this task.

    Cannot burn an iMovie project to a DVD because the computer can't find iDVD.  Anyone know how to accomplish this task.

    Macs don't come bundled with iDVD anymore. If you have an older Mac that came with an iLife disk, you can install iDVD from that.
    If your Mac didn't come with iDVD, you can still find iLife '11 disks in some stores.
    There are other programs that can create DVDs, but I've never used them. From what I've heard, they're not as good as iDVD.
