====== Generate png images of equations ====== You can use the ''tex2png.sh'' to generate images of your equations. Add your equation to a small tex file like ''equation.tex'' and run this command to generate the ''png'' file (replacing ''equation'' with the name of your tex file excluding ''.tex''): tex2png.sh equation You may want to create and keep seperate tex files for each formula. This works well if you are using eg. Google Docs for drafting your report and then at the end you would like to switch to LaTeX for proper typesetting. This way you don't have to key in the formulas twice.
