this parameter specifies notation used. 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/tdg/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 <a href="http://docbook.org/tdg/en/html/graphic.html"><code class="sgmltag-element">graphic</code></a> element, you can
store TeX inside <a href="http://docbook.org/tdg/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></div><div class="navfooter"><hr><table width="100%" summary="Navigation footer"><tr><td width="40%" align="left"><a accesskey="p" href="variablelist.as.table.html">Prev</a> </td><td width="20%" align="center"><a accesskey="u" href="rn16.html">Up</a></td><td width="40%" align="right"> <a accesskey="n" href="tex.math.file.html">Next</a></td></tr><tr><td width="40%" align="left" valign="top">variablelist.as.table </td><td width="20%" align="center"><a accesskey="h" href="index.html">Home</a></td><td width="40%" align="right" valign="top"> tex.math.file</td></tr></table></div></body></html>
