I don't recommend using the automatic scaling feature of Word's .\i
command. Instead, I put a space in the third argument, formatted so
that it gives the integral of the right size. I've included a stuffed
and binhex'ed example of some particularly messy formulas below. The
file includes norm signs and summations. I'm using Adobe fonts here--
it won't look right if you use anything else.
With regard to MathType, etc.: They do make very pretty expressions,
but there is a very serious difficulty with them that I've never seen
discussed. They produce PICT's, at a minimum of about 3k each. I've
seen a 20 page Word document take up like 350k! This is, of course,
in very math-intensive documents.
(This file must be converted with BinHex 4.0)
