Working with Mathematical Equation
24 May 202424 minutes to read
Equations in Word document are combination of mathematical symbols or text. For example, you can create a Fourier series equation in Word document.
The .NET Word Library (DocIO) offers two ways to create and modify equations in Word document.
NOTE
You can use mathematical equation only in documents that are saved in the Open XML Format and cannot be used in the Word 97-2003 document (.doc) format.
Types of equation
The following different structures of equation can be created by using the Essential DocIO.
- Accent
- Bar
- Box
- Border box
- Delimiter
- Equation array
- Fraction
- Function
- Group character
- Limit
- Matrix
- N-Array
- Radical
- Phantom
- SubSuperscript
- Left SubSuperscript
- Right SubSuperscript
Accent
You can add an accent mark to the equation. The following code example shows how to add an accent mark to the equation.
NOTE
Refer to the appropriate tabs in the code snippets section: C# [Cross-platform] for ASP.NET Core, Blazor, Xamarin, UWP, .NET MAUI, and WinUI; C# [Windows-specific] for WinForms and WPF; VB.NET [Windows-specific] for VB.NET applications.
