LaTeX rendering for equations

[k-deeley]

Would it be possible to add stages to render both in line and separated latex code blocks for mathematical expressions?

Using the $ and $$ tags in .md and same syntax is supported in MATLAB markup rendering and github .md rendering.

Does this need an extra postprocessing script in JS?

My solution attached with a test example. Workflow for modifying images into either the md or generated html after docconvert.

testEquationFile.md

generateEquationImage.zip

A possible soluition is to inject this into the HTML

    <script>
    window.MathJax = {
    tex: {
    inlineMath: [['$', '$'], ['\\(', '\\)']],
    displayMath: [['$$', '$$'], ['\\[', '\\]']]
    }
    };
    </script>
    <script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/mathjax@3/es5/tex-mml-chtml.js"></script>

At the moment the best is to define

mathjax-config.js

// MathJax configuration
window.MathJax = {
    tex: {
    inlineMath: [['$', '$'], ['\\(', '\\)']],
    displayMath: [['$$', '$$'], ['\\[', '\\]']]
    }
    };

// Dynamically load MathJax
(function () {
const script = document.createElement('script');
script.src = "https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/mathjax@3/es5/tex-mml-chtml.js";
script.async = true;
document.head.appendChild(script);
})();

And pass it to docconvert as:

doconvert(Scripts="path/to/matjhjax-config.js")

This solves the problem.
