MathCopyStandardize AI Prompt
Before asking ChatGPT, Gemini or Claude, generate a formatting instruction to paste at the start of the conversation — the AI will answer with formulas in a format MathCopy can paste straight into Word, no LaTeX knowledge required.
1
Which AI are you asking?
Each AI has slightly different formatting habits, so the note attached changes too.
2
What kind of content do you need?
Picking the right type adds extra rules, e.g. for chemical equations or data tables.
3
Your actual question (optional)
Fill it in for a ready-to-send prompt — or leave it blank and type your question after pasting.
Standardized prompt — ready to paste
From now on in this conversation, format every math formula using these rules: - Formulas inline with text: wrap them in $ ... $ - Formulas on their own display line: wrap them in $$ ... $$ - Use standard LaTeX syntax (\frac, \sqrt, \sum, \int, ^, _ ...). Do NOT use Unicode math symbols (², √, ×, ÷, ≤, ≥...) or plain-text approximations. - Do not use \( \) or \[ \] to wrap formulas — only $ and $$ as above. [Note for ChatGPT: If the answer wraps formulas in \[ \] or \( \), ask it to switch to $$ $$ and $ $ as instructed above.] My question: [paste your real question here]
Step 1 — Copy the block above and paste it at the start of a new chat with the AI you picked.
Step 2 — The AI answers with formulas correctly wrapped in $ $ and $$ $$.
Step 3 — Copy its answer and paste it into MathCopy as usual.
The AI list, content types and formatting rules may be refined further based on real feedback from users.
