<p class="ecxMsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D"> </span></p>
<p class="ecxMsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">However could you try exporting that and viewing locally and answer the following:</span></p>
<p class="ecxMsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D"> </span></p>
<p class="ecxMsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">1. Does it still display the latex when viewed locally?</span></p>
<p class="ecxMsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">2. If it displays is it ok or is it jumbled in any way e.g. spacing between lines not quite right?</span></p>

<p class="ecxMsoNormal">Hi all</p>
<p class="ecxMsoNormal">I previously creates a learning object at <a href="http://itq.jisctechdis.ac.uk/xerte/play_59" target="_blank">
http://itq.jisctechdis.ac.uk/xerte/play_59</a> to show teaching staff how to create formulae using simple Latex expressions.</p>
<p class="ecxMsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="ecxMsoNormal">I know there have been issues with the site that was used to host the Latex rendering script and we now have a new solution but I’m not sure how to implement the new solution so that my old learning object (above) will correctly display
the formulae now. </p>
<p class="ecxMsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="ecxMsoNormal">I’ve probably missed some important comment in a thread I skimmed too quickly but any pointers as to how to ‘redeem’ old formulae rich learning objects will be very welcome.</p>
<p class="ecxMsoNormal"> </p>
