Size of equations in Word
Borrull Posted messages 28 Status Member -
Hello,
I'm still using Word 2007 to type equations and mathematical formulas.
I have a formatting issue with the equation editor. When I use fractions in an equation and insert this equation into a sentence, the fractions appear in a "reduced size." How can I fix this formatting problem?
Thank you in advance.

Hello
When you insert the equation within the paragraph, it is added to the paragraph following the text, and in this case, the font size adjusts to the font size of your paragraph. That’s normal.
If the font size does not suit you, you can change it. To do this, select your equation and use the Font Size button.

Hello, and thank you.
But I don’t plan to change the font size for each equation.
And if I insert a 3x3 identity matrix for example, choosing from the templates, the numbers are the same size as the text, and the table adjusts, becoming taller than the paragraph.
There must be a way somewhere to adjust, at least at the time of entry, the size of the equations so that the characters are the same size as the text.
Thank you for your help.
Not accepting answers that don't fit does nothing to change the problem.
Word is a software that has its limitations like all software, you have to deal with it...
And since Word is not that limited, you can always create a macro for example:
Sub equation() Dim eq As OMath For Each eq In ActiveDocument.OMaths If eq.Justification = wdOMathJcInline Then eq.Range.Font.Grow End If Next End Sub
This macro increases by one point the equations that are inserted in a paragraph.
