MathType in Powerpoint?

I would try breaking the links and grouping the equations once you are done
with editing.

Hi, folks: I am using PPT for media-based presentations to my circuit
analysis classes. Each slide uses animation and sound and has a lot of
mathematical equations. Here is the problem: when I try to insert more than
about ten or twelve equations using MathType (supposedly the "Mother of
Equation Editor"), I get an error message that says "MathType Error. Too
many windows open." I have contacted Design Science (the company that sells
MathType) about the problem. They have acknowledged the problem, but
apparently can't solve it. Can anyone here help me? I would be glad to use
another equation editor, but the standard seems to be MathType, and the
others don't seem to be nearly good enough to produce reliable, high quality
equations in PPT. I'd appreciate any help you can provide.
Thanks,
Art Davis

Austin's suggestion might work -- but it might be that MathType is
responsible for displaying the equations -- rather than giving PPT a
picture to display. What happens if you ungroup the equations -- thus
converting them into PPT objects?

I use Equation Editor (the freebie version of MathType) a lot. On
occasion I have 4 to 6 equations in a slide. These have never been a
problem.
One thing you, Art Davis, might want to consider is consolidating
multiple equation objects into just one. I'm sure you know that
pressing the ENTER key in Equation Editor moves the cursor down and lets
one start a new equation. This way one can reduce the number of
separate equation objects on a slide.
