JLaTeXMath is a Java library. Its main purpose is to display mathematical formulas written in LaTeX. JLaTeXMath is the best Java library to display LaTeX code.

This library is used by numerous important projects like Scilab, Geogebra, Freeplane, Mathpiper, CaRMetal, Ultrastudio, etc.

You can now follow the development of JLaTeXMath or ask for questions or requests in using the mailing-list jlatexmath@lists.forge.scilab.org. The releases are announced on it.

The most of LaTeX commands are available and :

1. macros from amsmath and symbols from amssymb and stmaryrd;

7. the most of latin unicode characters are available and cyrillic or greek characters are detected for the loading of the different fonts;
8. the commands \newcommand and \newenvironment;
9. the environments array<\code>, matrix, pmatrix,..., eqnarray, cases;
10. the vertical and horizontal lines are handled in array environment;
11. the commands to change the size of the font are available : \tiny, \small,...,\LARGE, \huge, \Huge,
12. the fonts are embedded in the jar file to be used by fop 0.95 to generate PDF, PS or EPS (SVG export with shaped fonts works fine too). Since the version 0.9.5, the fop plugin is fully compatible with fop 1.0 and xmlgraphics 1.4;
13. and probably other things I forgot...
