MathType works with ActivInspire, but if you're using it with MathType 6.6 for Windows, see also this support article. Another advantage of MathType is that it not only works with ActivInspire, but with over 350 other applications and websites.

I use MathType or Equation Editor in MS Word then drag and drop the equation into an open flipchart. I find it's best to enlarge the equation in Word as it can get distorted if you enlarge it in ActivInspire. Hope that might help a bit

If you're using Windows, going directly from MathType to ActivInspire is best. If you're using an equation that's already in Word, double-click it to open it in MathType, then either copy & paste it or drag & drop it to ActivInspire. The reason for this is that MathType always puts additional information on the Windows "clipboard" that ActivInspire uses, and Word does not put there. (If you're using MathType 6.6, make sure you read the support article I linked to in my previous reply.)
