Setting a Spacing Adjustment in the Equation Editor
Summary: How to adjust overall spacing between your equation elements. (This tip works with Microsoft Word 6, Word 95, Word 97, Word 2000, Word 2002, and Word 2003.)When using the Equation Editor, you can control the spacing it uses between elements of your equation. You enter this spacing as an adjustment to the normal spacing between letters, which is a percentage of the regular spacing. Thus, 150% would be half again as much spacing as normally exists between elements. You set this adjustment as follows:
- Choose Spacing from the Format menu. The Equation Editor displays the Spacing dialog box. (Click here to see a related figure.)
- Click on the Spacing Adjustment box (you will need to scroll down some in the list of spacing settings). The Equation Editor changes the Spacing dialog box.
- Enter a spacing adjustment value as a percentage of the regular size.
- Click on OK.
