Equations in Keynote are fuzzy when viewed in iCloud

1. Inserting equations. Both of these techniques work for adding equations to Keynote:
   1. Use the Insert > Equation command in Keynote.
   2. Copy & paste or drag & drop from MathType 7 into Keynote.
2. Sizing equations. Don't click and drag a corner to re-size equations. In MathType 7, use the Size > Define command to set the equation size to match the size of your text in Keynote. The fuzzy equations you see in the example above do not occur if equations are appropriately sized, as shown here:

3. An added benefit to sizing equations this way is that it's quicker since you only have to make one size adjustment for each equation. Also, by dragging a corner, no two equations will be the same size, nor will they exactly match the text of your slide.
4. Don't copy & paste equations within Keynote. We don't recommend this because while it may not appear to cause problems initially, we have seen cases where it will cause problems later. These problems are such that the only recovery is to recreate the equation, so it's best to insert equations as described in step 2 above.

Providing feedback to Apple

This behavior is related to a known issue in Apple’s Pages/Keynote applications. While we don’t have direct control over how Apple prioritizes or resolves these issues, user feedback plays an important role in bringing them to light.

If this issue impacts your workflow, we encourage you to share your feedback directly with Apple. They provide a feedback form where you can report issues and suggest improvements.

We’ll continue working to ensure MathType integrates as smoothly as possible with Apple’s applications and will keep supporting you with any available workarounds in the meantime.

If you have questions or have found alternative approaches that work well for you, feel free to share them with us. Your feedback helps us improve both our products and our documentation.
