WORKAROUND
Use one of the following workarounds to position the equation so that the
underline formatting will be displayed and will print.
Method 1: Use Equation Editor
Create the equation using Equation Editor, and then underline the Equation
Editor object.
NOTE: If you need to adjust the position of the equation, click to select
the equation object, and then on the Format menu, click Font. Click to
select the Character Spacing tab, change the Position box to Raised, and
then click OK.
Method 2: Use an Equation Field
Create an equation field that places the result above the baseline.
For example, to create the fraction a/b, create the following equation:
{EQ b\d\ba8()\s\up20({EQ _\d\ba8()\s\up5(a)})}
In this equation, EQ represents the field name, Equation. Notice that the
second equation, {EQ _\d\ba8()\s\up5(a)}, is nested inside the first
equation. This second equation creates a fraction, "a" over "_". The "_"
is included to provide the horizontal bar that separates the numerator
from the denominator. The denominator is created in the first equation,
{EQ
b\d\ba8()\s\up20(<nested equation>)}.
Within each equation, the \d\ba8() moves the preceding characters, "b" and
"_", respectively, horizontally to the left by 8 points.
The \s\up20(<nested equation>) and \s\up5(a) superscripts the
corresponding nested equation or character by 20 points and 5 points,
respectively.
Notice that the numerator and denominator positions are in opposite
positions from their position in the {EQ \f(a,b) equation described in the
"Symptoms" section of this article.
NOTE: The point sizes used here can be adjusted upward or downward to
properly adjust your text.
