What is an EQP file?
An EQP file is a preferences file used by Design Science MathType, a program for creating and editing mathematical equations. It contains settings specified by a user that configure how MathType operates, such as fonts, equation formatting, and layout preferences. MathType users save their preferences in the software as EQP files to preserve a working environment they have customized to reflect their needs and preferences, which they can open again to reload.
