Equations in the Word document

LaTeX math ( $...$ , \[...\], equation, align, and matrix environments) becomes native Word equations you can edit in Word’s equation editor. Macros defined with \newcommand are expanded first.

Math that uses commands Word equations cannot represent, such as an undefined macro, stays in the document as plain LaTeX text. TikZ pictures and other drawing environments are not converted and are left out of the DOCX.
