- Convert Microsoft Equation 3.0 To Word 2007
Unfortunately using the terms 'equation' and 'MS Word' together isn't precise enough anymore. Since MS introduced the 'OMML' equation format and editor with Word 2007, it's been around long enough for me to assume this is the format you're trying. Convert formulas from equation editor to the same format as those from Microsoft Equation 3.0 In the same word document, I have formulas from equation editor and from microsoft equation 3.0. Is there a way to convert formulas from equation editor to the same format as those from Microsoft Equation 3.0?

How can I convert the old Microsoft word equations (version 3) to the new format?
I have an old document file full of equations, and an automatic conversion solution rather than re-typing all equations will be a huge time-saver!
I also tried GrindEq,but word crahes after conversion!
Edit 1: I'm using Microsoft Office Pro Plus 2013 (64-bit) on Win 8.1
Edit 2: I also installed MathType. It supports lots of different formats to convert to, but I could not find Microsoft equation!

This is a bit lengthy, but it works!
- Download and LibreOffice. It's free. Only the Windows version works, the Mac (OS X) version won't work (I tried it).
- Go into Word and save your file as a .doc (if it's not already in that format)
- Go into LibreOffice, open the .doc file and save it as a .odt file
- Go into Word, open the .odt file and save it as a .docx
This reduced the file size of some of my Word files with lots of equations by 90%

When you open a document containing an equation that was written in an older version Word, you need to use Equation 3.0 or the add-in that was used to write the equation to change it. Equation 3.0 is available in Word 2013 and when you click in an equation written with Equation 3.0, it will open automatically.
Double-click the equation that you want to edit.
Make the changes that you want.

If you convert an older document to the current format, you can use Word 2013’s more powerful built-in tools to write an equation. However, any old equations written using Equation 3.0 or using an add-in must be manually recreated if you wish to use Word 2013’s built-in equation editor.
To convert a document, click File > Info > Convert.

Unless you try to convert a new document into an older one, you should see the compatibility options for your Microsoft Word.
Windows has many compatibility options. You can check their Help Site to see if your question is included in the Help center or in the Forums.
Offering more details would help us. Give us the solutions you tried.
You can install EQ 3.0 to edit equations in older word. Choose EQ 3.0 in object. If you want to make a full convert, you'll need to use a third party software.

Mathtype is a commercial program to convert equations in more than 500 formats.
It is well praised. I have seen many references to this program to deal with Word Compatibility Problems.

I use a trick that isn't a solution, but you can try a chance.
Log into One Drive with your Microsoft account, upload your file, and open it on Office Online, then save it or print as PDF.
