  • Not an answer, but i guess Latex does something similar: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LaTeX , may be you can integrate it in your app – Madhur Ahuja Feb 12 '11 at 07:27
  • @Madhur: LaTeX uses [TeX](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TeX). Not sure how easily *that* will be to integrate into WinForms. [MathML](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MathML) might be a better way to go, but you're still left with quite a bit of work. – Cody Gray - on strike Feb 12 '11 at 07:30

I achieved by this by following The Code Project article Enable Your Users to Write Math Equations in Your Web and Desktop Apps.

Have a look at Cambria Math Microsoft uses it in Microsoft Word Equations.

To use it my guess is (I haven't tried it) that WPF might give you the best odds as it supports open types.

  • Thanks Erno, but it is not some how helpful for me. I am using this , which sounds fine : http://www.codeproject.com/KB/dotnet/Eq2Img.aspx – Red Swan Feb 15 '11 at 09:04
  • I didn't know this project and web service. Nice! Unfortunately it requires the user to use yet another expression language to enter an equation. – Emond Feb 15 '11 at 14:53
  • I fail to see how this is helpful at all - how do you display anything that can't already be rendered using Unicode with this font? – BlueRaja - Danny Pflughoeft Jan 30 '12 at 22:41
