However, you should know that after the 30-day trial period MathType becomes MathType Lite, which is better than Equation Editor. If I install your 30-day demo of MathType and decide not to buy it, can I go back to using Equation Editor? At the end of the trial period, MathType will revert to MathType Lite and you will always be able to view and edit MathType and Equation Editor equations.Ĥ. No, but if you download the free, MathType 30-day trial, you will be able to edit all MathType equations.
