Using LaTeX on this site

There are two ways to use LaTeX. Inline: <<latex(\LaTeX)>> which produces: <<latex(\LaTeX)>>

Or for extended paragraphs see the code that produced this \LaTeX 
\begin{equation}
    e=mc^2
\end{equation}

For more examples see LatexPreamble and LatexArticle

Using LaTeX Tips and Tricks

Looking for a template: LatexTemplate

I use wmf2eps which is an excellent program. Here are a few issues to keep in mind:

  1. When using \psfrag, always make sure your excel, visio, ... files use ONE letter substitutions. If you use more than one letter, MS products put them in as individual letters instead of strings (which is what psfrag is looking for).

Don't forget that
