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.

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 < 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 >
