Hi all

Is anyone using Math / Scientific symbols in Xerte? I've had a request for help from a Maths lecturer who needs to use symbols.

I've had a go using <sub> and <sup> which works in XOT with "allow subscripts" ticked, and also came across an earlier list post pointing out HTML chars which seem to work, but I also came across some reference to Latex.

Does latex work in XOT? Last I read it seemed some service you chaps used had crashed?

If there is an easier way than using HTML syntax then let me know. I guess another alternative would be to use some other software and save them as images.

Cheers, Adam
