About

This application provides an easy-to-use graphical user interface for generating images from LaTeX equations. These images can be dragged and dropped or copied and pasted into external applications (presentations, text documents, graphics...), or can be saved to disk in a variety of formats (PNG, JPG, BMP, EPS, PDF, etc.). In addition to the graphical user interface, a command-line interface and a C++ library is provided to perform the same job.
