Math

Details

docutils supports LaTeX math syntax, but Typst does not support it natively. Then, translator uses the mitex package provides a way to include LaTeX math in Typst documents.

When documment uses math roles or directives, translator append code to import packages automatically. #import expression are put on first of output.

Examples

Simple block

RST

.. math::

   x = \frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2 - 4ac}}{2a}

TYPST

#mitex(`
  x = \frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2 - 4ac}}{2a}
`)

Inline role

RST

The area of a circle is :math:`A_\text{c} = (\pi/4) d^2`.

TYPST

The area of a circle is #mi(`A_\text{c} = (\pi/4) d^2`).
