June 2018 updates for Microsoft Office 2016 and Office 2013

6 June 2018

As usual, Microsoft has released non-security updates and bug fixes for Office 2016 and Office 2013 on the first Tuesday of the month.

A few caught our eye:

Late last year, Microsoft was caught out leaving a horribly vulnerable Equation Editor in Office for 17 years. A new patch restores the MT Extra font so equations made with the old Equation Editor can be viewed.

Another patch updates the translation of the English phrase “forwarding a meeting” for other languages.

All these patches should be installed into Office 2016 or Office 2013 for Windows automatically as part of the regular updating process.
