<p>
XOWA uses MathJax<sup id="cite_ref-mathjax_0-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-mathjax-0">[1]</a></sup> as the default method for LaT<sub>E</sub>X support. No additional setup is required, and performance will often be quicker than a standard LaT<sub>E</sub>X application.
</p>
<h2>
<span class="mw-headline" id="LaTEX">LaT<sub>E</sub>X</span>
</h2>
<p>
XOWA also supports LaT<sub>E</sub>X for those users who prefer to work directly with the application.
</p>
<p>
If you wish to set up LaT<sub>E</sub>X, then please click one of these links:

<span class="mw-headline" id="MathJax_compared_to_XOWA_LaTEX">MathJax compared to XOWA LaT<sub>E</sub>X</span>
</h2>
<p>
Here is a quick summary of the differences between MathJax vs XOWA LaT<sub>E</sub>X:
</p>
<ul>
<li>
MathJax is a javascript approach that will work cross-platform. LaT<sub>E</sub>X relies on platform specific binaries, which take up several hundred MBs.
</li>
<li>
MathJax will be faster in generating multiple images for the first time view. As a rough comparison, a page with 100 formulas will take MathJax &lt; 5 seconds, whereas LaT<sub>E</sub>X may take as long as a minute. (the latter is because XOWA generates a png for each formula)
</li>
<li>
MathJax has more dynamic rendering options, including "zoom" and different renderers (HTML-CSS, MathML, SVG). XOWA's LaT<sub>E</sub>X support is basic.
</li>
<li>
XOWA LaT<sub>E</sub>X will be faster in generating multiple images for successive views (second, third, fourth, etc). XOWA's LaT<sub>E</sub>X will cache the images on the hard drive and display them more quickly than Mathjax can generate them.
</li>
</ul>
