Math
Extension: tex_math_dollars
Anything between two $
characters will be treated as TeX math. The opening $
must have a non-space character immediately to its right, while the closing $
must have a non-space character immediately to its left, and must not be followed immediately by a digit. Thus, $20,000 and $30,000
won’t parse as math. If for some reason you need to enclose text in literal $
characters, backslash-escape them and they won’t be treated as math delimiters.
TeX math will be printed in all output formats. How it is rendered depends on the output format:
- LaTeX
- It will appear verbatim surrounded by
\(...\)
(for inline math) or \[...\]
(for display math).
- Markdown, Emacs Org mode, ConTeXt, ZimWiki
- It will appear verbatim surrounded by
$...$
(for inline math) or $$...$$
(for display math).
- XWiki
- It will appear verbatim surrounded by
{{formula}}..{{/formula}}
.
- reStructuredText
- It will be rendered using an interpreted text role
:math:
.
- AsciiDoc
- For AsciiDoc output format (
-t asciidoc
) it will appear verbatim surrounded by latexmath:[$...$]
(for inline math) or [latexmath]++++\[...\]+++
(for display math). For AsciiDoctor output format (-t asciidoctor
) the LaTex delimiters ($..$
and \[..\]
) are omitted.
- Texinfo
- It will be rendered inside a
@math
command.
- roff man, Jira markup
- It will be rendered verbatim without
$
’s.
- MediaWiki, DokuWiki
- It will be rendered inside
<math>
tags.
- Textile
- It will be rendered inside
<span class="math">
tags.
- RTF, OpenDocument
- It will be rendered, if possible, using Unicode characters, and will otherwise appear verbatim.
- ODT
- It will be rendered, if possible, using MathML.
- DocBook
- If the
--mathml
flag is used, it will be rendered using MathML in an inlineequation
or informalequation
tag. Otherwise it will be rendered, if possible, using Unicode characters.
- Docx
- It will be rendered using OMML math markup.
- FictionBook2
- If the
--webtex
option is used, formulas are rendered as images using CodeCogs or other compatible web service, downloaded and embedded in the e-book. Otherwise, they will appear verbatim.
- HTML, Slidy, DZSlides, S5, EPUB
- The way math is rendered in HTML will depend on the command-line options selected. Therefore see Math rendering in HTML above.
