Thank you for participating in the thread I made, but I really didn't see any answer to what you said (or maybe my english is very poor).
I don't know if you've ever used MathType to write maths in Pages, but after having written thousands and thousands of pages in my books over the past 12 years (using Pages 4.3 and MathType 6.7), I can tell that there is no better way to do this than MathType! 100% tested over thousands of pages and workhours spent!
Trying to do this with Latex, I will say it again, is going back to Stone Ages! It's the worst way to do this; way too much effort, much much more tiring, the hours needed are multiplied by a factor of 2 or even 3!
Install Microsoft Word in order to use MathType??? Seriously??? Microsoft Word??? On a Mac? It is simply a matter of (very short) time before Word starts causing problems. I've been using Word for many years too and problems were always there, always! After switching to Mac and Pages, I have to look up in a dictionary to remember what "problem" means! And this goes on for almost 12 years so far. And Apple is ok with this? Installing a much more inferior app (Word) in a much more superior OS (Mac) is something that Apple is happy about and promotes in their own way? To say the least, this is embarasing!
You wrote about you can contact the Pages product team. How can I do this too? How can I contact them? I would very much appreciate if you shared a link so as to contact them directly. Instead of telling you about these, there might be a (very) remote chance of telling them and changing this terrible situation they've put us in. I recently bought a new MacBook Air M1, but I never imagined that they would do such a huge damage with my work! Thankfully, I can still continue writing my books in my old iMac, in which Pages 4.3 still works perfectly with MathType (now THAT'S the way to write Maths!), but then, what's the point of buying my new MBA? Why spend over 1200 Euros for this?
Anyway, I am not taking out on you, forgive me if it sounds so. There is NO progress in using Latex, no matter how many guides one can find on the Internet. It is definitely steps back, too many steps back. In the time of building websites with drag and drop website builders, what Apple did with Pages and Latex is like building a website writing code! Totally unacceptable! Totally wrong!
Again, thank you for participating. Could you please share how can I contact the Pages product team about this issue?
