Some of its most exciting features are: Easy Greek letter insertion Intelligent cursor movement Advanced syntax highlighting Multi-level undo support LaTeX export (copy and paste into a text editor) KFormula uses the KOffice formula drawing library. If you have to deal with many formulae you may wish to use a KFormula object embedded in KWord or KSpread. This application is part of the KDE Office Suite. ## OPTIONS Below are the kformula-specific options. For a full summary of options, run *kformula --help*. - **--print** Print the given file(s) and exit. ## SEE ALSO [**kword**(1)](/kword/1.md), [**kspread**(1)](/kspread/1.md).
