“Compile Error in Hidden Module: MTLib" message in Microsoft Office X after
installing MathType
The information in this document applies to:
MathType 5.0 (Mac) |
Microsoft Word X (Mac)
Microsoft PowerPoint X (Mac) |
Issue
If you are running a non-English version of OS X, you may receive a "Compile
Error in hidden module: MTLib" error message when using the MathType Commands in
either application.
Reason
A Compile Error occurs if the Mac OS decimal separator character is not '.',
which may be the case in non-English versions of OS X.
Solution
To correct this problem, you need to install MathType version 5.0a or later.
To determine which version you are running, launch MathType and choose "About
MathType" under MathType in the Application Menu.
The latest version of MathType can be downloaded
here. If you need a replacement CD, please
contact sales@dessci.com. Your 5.0
registration number can be used with 5.0a.
If you still experience problems after upgrading, please email our technical
support staff for assistance.
