Re: equation editor

 

Thanks. Unfortunately, the svg file doesn't look correct in my case (see attached the tex file, the png file originally created and the svg file after patching). I played around with the dvisgm options, but couldn't find a solution.

Best wishes,

Paulo

Indeed it works using dvisgm and it looks good, just change 3 lines in the plugin, see attached diff.

When I have some time I will try to make it an option in the plugin.

Regards,

Jaap

    Perhaps replacing the dvipng by dvisgm
    (http://dvisvgm.bplaced.net/) could work?

    Thanks, I had been looking in equationeditor.py file, but wasn't
    sure how to add the -D option.

    The reason I want to be able to change the resolution is to make
    the image suitable to be used in printed documents, which
    normally requires a dpi of 300. But that would result in a very
    large image in the notebook. A solution for me (but perhaps not
    so much for you) would be an option to resize the image display
    in the notebook (like you can do with a normal image). The option
    to use svg instead of png would be even better, perhaps also for
    your user case?

    I have been thinking about the same thing since I got a HiDPI
    screen. Currently, I have only managed to make the images
    bigger, by passing the option "-D 192" to the "dvipng" command.
    The modified version is here:

    However this is not perfect, when I open the notebook on other
    computers, the equations are too big.

        Hi Jaap and other Zim devs,

        The 'insert equation' function is a great function,
        producing nice looking equations in Zim. However, the
        resolution of the image (png file) that is generated by the
        addon is fairly low. Is there a way to change the resolution
        of the image? Or even better, would it be possible to add
        the option to store the on-the-fly generaged image as svg
        instead of png? This would provide in perfectly scalable
        solution for any document.

        Best regards

        Paulo
