How to paste mathematical equations to illustrator?

[Samer Alhassan]

Hello,

I'm trying to copy math equations from power point to Ai but i'm not getting accurate results

This is on of the equations i'm trying to copy:

This is the result i'm getting in Ai:

is there a way for Ai to  identify the equations as text?

I meant PASTE in the topic

No, there isn't. I believe there's a plug-in for such stuff directly in AI, but otherwise you would need to export a PDF, SVG, PNG or whatever from PPT. If you do this a lot, you may consider switching to Mathematica or LaTex and use their math layout tools which can actually produce proper AI data and files.

Hi there,

Thank you for reaching out. I agree with @Mylenium, and as he said, this is not possible as of now. But I will forward this to the Product team. I would suggest if you could share it here (https://illustrator.uservoice.com/). This way, you will keep getting all the updates related to this feature request, and other users can also upvote.

Thanks & Regards,

for a company so huge and succesful to make people on earth keep throwing money at them like adobe, i think this feature should be present, planned and considered. or at least let editor on their inDesign do that (if Ai aimed for illustration only)
