MathTypeXSee it in 60 seconds
A short tour without sound: building a formula, turning on Arabic, the Arabic math letters, exact positioning and the PNG export.
What happens in the video (text version)
- The editor opens in English and the quadratic formula is built from the toolbar: a fraction, a square root and a power.
- Three buttons turn on Arabic: right-to-left editing, Arabic ligature and the special characters palette with the Arabic math letters.
- The same editor in Arabic: the formula is written from right to left and the interface is translated.
- A letter from the Arabic math letters palette receives a derivative mark above it, followed by ( س ).
- The contextual tab moves the mark one pixel at a time; the exact offset is saved in the formula.
- The finished formula is exported as a PNG image.
