- nubinetwork 3y agoSo their website says the offer a copy of MathType for Office 2021... Why does Microsoft ship such an old version? Did the licensing deal fall through? I'm surprised they still have this in Office if they're not going to use the latest version.
- duskwuff 3y ago> Why does Microsoft ship such an old version? If I had to guess, it's probably because they got really good licensing terms for that version back in the day (e.g. flat fee for unlimited copies), and MathType is smart enough to not offer them a similar deal for a newer version.
