  26 <para>If you want type math directly in TeX notation in equations,
  27 this parameter specifies notation used. Currently are supported two
  28 values -- <literal>plain</literal> and <literal>latex</literal>. Empty
  29 value means that you are not using TeX math at all.</para>
  30
  31 <para>Preferred way for including TeX alternative of math is inside of
  32 <tag>textobject</tag> element. Eg.:</para>
  33
  34 <programlisting>&lt;inlineequation&gt;
  35 &lt;inlinemediaobject&gt;
  36 &lt;imageobject&gt;
  37 &lt;imagedata fileref="eq1.gif"/&gt;
  38 &lt;/imageobject&gt;
  39 &lt;textobject&gt;&lt;phrase&gt;E=mc squared&lt;/phrase&gt;&lt;/textobject&gt;
  40 &lt;textobject role="tex"&gt;&lt;phrase&gt;E=mc^2&lt;/phrase&gt;&lt;/textobject&gt;
  41 &lt;/inlinemediaobject&gt;
  42 &lt;/inlineequation&gt;</programlisting>
  43
  44 <para>If you are using <tag>graphic</tag> element, you can
  45 store TeX inside <tag>alt</tag> element:</para>
  46
  47 <programlisting>&lt;inlineequation&gt;
  48 &lt;alt role="tex"&gt;a^2+b^2=c^2&lt;/alt&gt;
  49 &lt;graphic fileref="a2b2c2.gif"/&gt;
  50 &lt;/inlineequation&gt;</programlisting>
  51
  52 <para>If you want use this feature, you should process your FO with
  53 PassiveTeX, which only supports TeX math notation. When calling
  54 stylsheet, don't forget to specify also
  55 passivetex.extensions=1.</para>
  56
  57 <para>If you want equations in HTML, just process generated file
  58 <filename>tex-math-equations.tex</filename> by TeX or LaTeX. Then run
  59 dvi2bitmap program on result DVI file. You will get images for
  60 equations in your document.</para>
  61
  62 <warning>
  63   <para>This feature is useful for print/PDF output only if you
  64     use the obsolete and now unsupported PassiveTeX XSL-FO
  65     engine.</para>
