Supported Functions

Temml is a JavaScript library that converts TeX math-mode functions to MathML. This page lists the TeX functions it supports, sorted into logical groups.

There is a similar Support Table, sorted alphabetically, that lists both supported and some un-supported functions.

\ref{tag1}

x+y2x(hi)

\tag{hi} x+y^{2x} \label{tag1}

x+y2xbye

\tag*{bye} x+y^{2x}

Also some environments have automatic equation numbering.

A \label{…} may be placed anywhere and will create an HTML id matching the \label{…} argument. That argument may contain only the characters A-Za-z0-9_-.

On sites where Temml fields are updated dynamically, \ref{…} may not be supported. Other Temml functions update only the local field. \ref{…} must make two passes through the entire document. Some sites may choose not to do this.

Color

F=ma {\color{blue} F=ma}F=ma {\color[RGB]{255,0,255} F=ma}
F=ma \textcolor{blue}{F=ma}F=ma {\color[rgb]{1,0,1} F=ma}
F=ma \textcolor{#228B22}{F=ma}F=ma {\color[HTML]{ff00ff} F=ma}
A \colorbox{aqua}{A}\definecolor{sortaGreen}{RGB}{128,128,0}
F=ma {\color{sortaGreen} F=ma}
A \fcolorbox{red}{aqua}{A}

\definecolor functions can be included in a preamble. If so, their color definitions will have document-wide scope.

Color functions can all take an optional argument to set the color model, as in the xcolor package. (Exception: \definecolor’s model argument is required.) Temml supports color models HTML, RGB, and rgb.

If the color model is omitted, Temml color functions will accept:

AMS Environments

The auto-render extension will render the following environments even if they are not inside math delimiters such as $$…$$. They are display-mode only.

a=b+c=e+f

\begin{equation}
\begin{split}
   a &=b+c\\
   &=e+f
\end{split}
\end{equation}

a=b+cd+e=f

\begin{align}
   a&=b+c \\

Bmatrix*, vmatrix*, Vmatrix*
… take an optional argument that sets column
alignment, as in \begin{matrix*}[r]

gathered, aligned, alignedat… do not need to be in display mode.
… have no automatic numbering.
… must be inside math delimiters in
order to be rendered by the auto-render

Acceptable horizontal line separators are: \\ and \cr.

Temml supports \tag{…}, \notag, and \nonumber to modify equation numbering.

The {array} environment does not yet support \cline or \multicolumn.

HTML

The following "raw HTML" features are potentially dangerous for untrusted inputs, so they are disabled by default, and attempting to use them produces the command names in red (which you can configure via the errorColor option). To fully trust your LaTeX input, you need to pass an option of trust: true; you can also enable just some of the commands or for just some URLs via the trust option.

Math-mode Unicode (sub|super)script characters will render as if you had written regular characters in a subscript or superscript. For instance, A²⁺³ will render the same as A^{2+3}.

There are two methods that will render any Unicode charater:

  1. Use the \char function and the Unicode code in hex. For example \char"263a will render as .

  2. Write the character inside \text{…}. For example, \text{☺} will render as .


More about Unicode script…

The Unicode range U+1D49C - U+1D4B5, Mathematical Script, has been ambiguous. Some fonts put chancery glyphs (𝒜𝒞) at those code points and some fonts use roundhand glyphs (𝒜𝒞). Temml’s default for code points in this range is chancery, which matches the fonts Cambria Math and STIX TWO. It also matches the TeX function \mathcal{…}.

Per Unicode 14+, Temml will return a roundhand glyph if you append a \ufe01 to a character in the range 𝒜-𝒵.

Layout

Line Breaks

Hard line breaks are \\ and \newline.

Temml inserts soft line breaks per TeXbook p. 173 if not in display mode and no hard line breaks are employed. They work in Chromium and Firefox, but not in Safari.

Reflect

 ab\reflectbox{$\frac a b$}

Vertical Layout

xn x_n=! \stackrel{!}{=}abc a\raisebox{0.25em}{b}c
ex e^x=! \overset{!}{=}MM2M M\raise3pt{M^2}M
uo _u^o=! \underset{!}{=}MM2M M\lower3pt{M^2}M

ab a \atop b

0<i<m0<j<n

\sum_{\substack{0<i<m\\0<j<n}}

LaTeX puts the second argument of \raisebox into text mode, but it can contain math if the math is nested within $…$ delimiters, as in \raisebox{0.25em}{$\frac a b$}

Overlap and Spacing

=// {=}\mathllap{/\,}(x2) \left(x^{\smash{2}}\right)
/= \mathrlap{\,/}{=}y \sqrt{\smash[b]{y}}

1ijnxij

\sum_{\mathclap{1\le i\le j\le n}} x_{ij}

Temml also supports \llap, \rlap, and \clap. They work only in text mode if the rendering options include strict: true.

Notes:

distance will accept any of the Temml units.

\kern\mkern, \mskip, and \hskip accept unbraced distances, as in: \kern1em.

\mkern and \mskip will not work in text mode and both will write a console warning for any unit except mu.

\rule{}{distance} is valuable as a vertical strut.

To create macros with document-wide scope, use \gdef, \global\let, or define a preamble in one of the Temml rendering options. (Global macros may be disabled for security reasons.)

Macros accept up to nine arguments: #1, #2, etc.

Available functions include:
\char \mathchoice \TextOrMath \@ifstar \@ifnextchar \@firstoftwo \@secondoftwo \relax \expandafter \noexpand

@ is a valid character for commands, as if \makeatletter were in effect.

Temml has no \par, so \long is ignored.

The \textXX versions can stack font family, font weight, and font shape. So \textsf{\textbf{H}} will produce 𝗛. The other versions do not stack, e.g., \mathsf{\mathbf{H}} will produce 𝐇.

In cases where math fonts do not have a bold glyph, \pmb can simulate one. For example, \pmb{\vartheta} renders as : ϑ

The effect of script level and font size:

Unit textstyle
normal size
scriptscript huge
em or ex
mu
others

em and ex are affected by font size changes such as \Large, but they are not affected by script level, so they will not change size in a fraction numerator or an exponent.

mu is affected by both script level and font size.

The other units are absolute and are not affected by either script level or font size.
