This is a fork of [Gregwar/Tex2png](https://github.com/Gregwar/Tex2png) updated to PHP 8.1

Tex2png
=======

[](#tex2png)

This class provides a way to create easily LaTeX formulas.

With it, you can convert raw formulas like:

`\sum_{i = 0}^{i = n} \frac{i}{2}`

To nice images like:

[![Sum formula](demo/sum.png)](demo/sum.png)

Requirement
-----------

[](#requirement)

To use this library you'll need :

- **latex** : to compile formulas (with math support)
- **dvipng** : to convert dvis to png
- **shell\_exec** : you need to be able to call the php `shell_exec()` function

You'll also need a temporary folder and, of courses, enough permissions to write to the target directory
