How to use MathCopy

1

Open Word first, then open MathCopy

Start Microsoft Word, then launch the MathCopy app. Below is what the app's icon looks like once it's running.

Important: Word must be opened first, then MathCopy — opening them in the wrong order means MathCopy won't detect the right Word window to paste into.

Common issues

MathCopy doesn't detect the Word window

Close both apps and reopen them in the right order: Word first, then MathCopy.

The pasted formula is missing or has wrong symbols

Copy the formula again from the AI in full — avoid editing it or copying only part of it before pasting.

The Ctrl + Alt + V shortcut doesn't respond

Check that MathCopy is running in the system tray and that your cursor is inside a Word document.
