Math support

[Opussci]

Would be nice if LaTeX math could be exported to docx. Are there any plans to go in that direction?

Hi,
remark has remark-math plugin to keep math syntax and openxml actually has OfficeMath element.
It would be possible to convert some latex to docx so I'll try to make minimum feature at first.

[Opussci]

Yes, that would work. If there is online presentation than docx conversion would be useful also.
Thank you.

@Opussci
I added basic LaTeX support in 0.1.0.
It might have some bugs and have missing features.

Any feedbacks are welcomed.
Thanks!

[Opussci]

Thank you! I will test it and get back to you.

@inokawa
First impressions are:

Inline and simple block display is working, labels are not active nor rendered.

Equation and align environments are not rendered properly.

Still, amazing speed with which you implemented this.

Do you can suppose how much time will be needed to implement completely math rendering?

Best!

[inokawa]

I think perfect implementation of LaTeX is impossible because there are features that doesn't exist in OfficeMath of Office Open XML, many of them could be imitated though.

The needed time is case by case. Some features are easy to implement and the others might be difficult.

Thank you for your feedback.

[Opussci]

Yes of course, I was thinking about major LaTeX features, like equations with numbering and cross-referencing. I think that would be more than enough for most of the cases.

Thank you for your work and short time response.

@inokawa Is there any way I can export numbered lists in alphabetical style?
