Easiest way to type formulas

[hop-frog]

I have a math final coming up soon and I get to fill one piece of paper full of as many of the formulas as I can from my textbook. After I write it out on notebook paper, I figure that if I type it up and make it all color coded.

So far I have tried to write the formulas KFormula and then I will just copy them into KWord. I've already run into two problems:

How to print? I'm unsure as to how I will print this out though, because I have to convert it to a format that can be read and printed out correctly on a Windows Machine. I have had trouble enough converting simple documents to a Windows readable. It is physically impossible to print directly from my Linux box.

Where can I find more symbols? If I run into a symbol that is not in the character map, is there a good font for Mathematicians that will have it?

How do I paste symbols in from the Klipper to KFormula? I sent a symbol to the clipboard, but they aren't pasting into KFormula? How do I do this?

Is there a better program for doing this that won't eat up very much time? From your experience would it be better that I not mess around and just write really small?

Try Lyx. It's a gui front end for latex. It does scientific and mathematical formulas very well. Lyx Features (http://www.lyx.org/about/features.php3)
As far as printing, could you send the pages to another computer that can print from linux? Via email maybe? Lyx may work in windows also. Lyx on Windows (http://www.lyx.org/about/platforms.php3) . But it seems to work best in Linux/Unix.
The big difference between Lyx and word processors is that you just type and the program formats according to what you choose on the drop down menu.

Can Lyx export to PDF?
