Currently are supported two values -- <code class="literal">plain</code> and <code class="literal">latex</code>. Empty value means that you are not using TeX math at all.</p> <p>Preferred way for including TeX alternative of math is inside of <a href="http://docbook.org/tdg5/en/html/textobject.html"><code class="sgmltag-element">textobject</code></a> element. Eg.:</p> <pre class="programlisting"><inlineequation> <inlinemediaobject> <imageobject> <imagedata fileref="eq1.gif"/> </imageobject> <textobject><phrase>E=mc squared</phrase></textobject> <textobject role="tex"><phrase>E=mc^2</phrase></textobject> </inlinemediaobject> </inlineequation></pre> <p>If you are using <code class="sgmltag-element">graphic</code> element, you can store TeX inside <a href="http://docbook.org/tdg5/en/html/alt.html"><code class="sgmltag-element">alt</code></a> element:</p> <pre class="programlisting"><inlineequation> <alt role="tex">a^2+b^2=c^2</alt> <graphic fileref="a2b2c2.gif"/> </inlineequation></pre> <p>If you want use this feature, you should process your FO with PassiveTeX, which only supports TeX math notation. When calling stylsheet, don't forget to specify also passivetex.extensions=1.</p> <p>If you want equations in HTML, just process generated file <code class="filename">tex-math-equations.tex</code> by TeX or LaTeX. Then run dvi2bitmap program on result DVI file. You will get images for equations in your document.</p> <div class="warning" style="margin-left: 0.5in; margin-right: 0.5in;"><h3 class="title">Warning</h3> <p>This feature is useful for print/PDF output only if you use the obsolete and now unsupported PassiveTeX XSL-FO engine.</p> </div> </div> <div class="refsection"><a name="idp3789440"></a><h2>Related Parameters</h2> <p><a href="../html/tex.math.delims.html"><em class="parameter"><code>tex.math.delims</code></em></a>, <a href="../fo/passivetex.extensions.html"><em class="parameter"><code>passivetex.extensions</code></em></a>, <a href="../html/tex.math.file.html"><em class="parameter"><code>tex.math.file</code></em></a></p> </div> </div><div class="navfooter"><hr><table width="100%" summary="Navigation footer"><tr><td width="40%" align="left"><a accesskey="p" href="passivetex.extensions.html">Prev</a> </td><td width="20%" align="center"><a accesskey="u" href="fo_ext.html">Up</a></td><td width="40%" align="right"> <a accesskey="n" href="tex.math.delims.html">Next</a></td></tr><tr><td width="40%" align="left" valign="top">passivetex.extensions </td><td width="20%" align="center"><a accesskey="h" href="../index.html">Home</a></td><td width="40%" align="right" valign="top"> tex.math.delims</td></tr></table></div></body></html>
