I have some equations that I need to incorporate into a confluence page. How do I do this in confluence?

Even if I have to use markdown, that is fine. but I do not see a way to do that.

I see this post: Plugin exporting Jira Confluence page(s) to LaTeX

But that is for export to LaTeX, whereas I want to go the otherway: I want to inject LaTeX into a confluence page. How do I do that?

I tried this: https://hiltmon.com/blog/2017/01/28/mathjax-in-markdown/. But even the eaxmples in that page do not work.

Thanks.

  • Thanks :) Sorry...I saw it in the other question here: https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/388910/plugin-exporting-jira-confluence-pages-to-latex?noredirect=1&lq=1 so I figured the topic was still fair game for the TeX.SE. no? – makansij Feb 01 '18 at 03:49

    You can use texlive and standalne documentclass to export the equations in pdf format with pdflatex command and then convert them to png images with convert command.

  • In that other question the other direction is mentioned in a comment, pointing to https://marketplace.atlassian.com/plugins/com.stepstonetech.confluence.plugins.latex/server/overview. – Marijn Feb 01 '18 at 11:56

I recommend using an appon like LaTeX EASY math equation for Confluence. https://marketplace.atlassian.com/apps/1224024

It is easy to use and even it supports Live preview & edit. Please check a youtube clip which shows how to use it.
