[Xerte] Re: Xerte and Latex update

[Dave Burnett]

Reminded me of this one sent  a while back, don't know if it went in the bugbase

===============
If I try to use

<textformat blockindent='10'>here is a bullet point</textformat>

It gets superceded by <tex apparently and attempts to run the forkosh.dreamhost cgi script and produce some latex.

Latex is supported <tex src=”e=mc^2”> We use an external latex rendering service which we have been trying to implement in-house to robustify it. There are several services, so we ca always switch if one disappears, but ideally we’d have it running at notts.

Subject: [Xerte] Xerte and Latex update A colleague has contacted me about LateX support in Xerte – I know there were some discussions a couple of years back in the Beta version of XOT. Is there an update on this? I know there’s loads of stats resources I’ve seen from UoN but not sure if they are based on images only or ‘Readable’ images with Latex.
