So I'm currently studying at University and have been looking for a decent program that is capable of writing equations quickly with shortcuts, LaTex, etc... However, I want to be able to instantly just copy it from the editor, and paste it into Evernote as an image so that I can keep it organised with my Lecture Notes.

So far I've tried a variety of different ones that I can find via Google, but they are all lacking or over complicated.

I originally used the MathiVersity Editor since it has the copy-paste image functionality but it lacks speed due to no shortcuts for common things like; Fractions, Matrices, Functions, etc...

I'm all for learning LaTeX as well as long as it has the same functionality described above. For example;

  • Write LaTeX code.
  • Select Code and Copy.
  • Paste into Evernote as an image and code is formatted as actual symbols, etc...

Anything anyone can recommend would be greatly appreciated!

    If you ask over at tex.SE, it's possible they could help you configure your LaTeX file so that it renders exactly the way you want automatically (i.e. only the equation and not a full page of padding, titles and such). – Arthur May 03 '17 at 07:55

For a cheap LaTeX solution, you can use any LaTeX renderer such as this very Mathematics page, and screen copy to an image editor for cropping.

Example:

As a formula

$\ \ \displaystyle\int_{-\infty}^\infty\aleph_0!\iff\dfrac{\land}{\lor}$

As an inserted picture

For a more interactive (menu driven) solution, MS Word has a quite decent equation editor.

Interestingly, it can be coupled to MS Mathematics, a not-so-elementary symbolic computation utility, and supports MathML markup.

For the best graphical quality, you may consider zooming-in on the page via your browser before taking the screen copy, and later scale down before or after pasting.
