MathToWeb is available from http://www.mathtoweb.com/cgi-bin/mathtoweb_home.pl Your .emacs should look something like this. (custom-set-variables '(org-latex-to-mathml-convert-command "java -jar %j -unicode -force -df %o %I") '(org-latex-to-mathml-jar-file "~/tmp-odt/mathtoweb.jar")) I am attaching odt files used with both dvipng and mathml options. The latex-mathml.odt reports an error on one of the $$ $$ equations. Note to reviewers: Can someone enhance the patch so that `org-latex-src-embed-type can take all the various anchors that a latex equation could use - inline, display-unnumbered, display-numbered, what else? Note to the users: 1. You need to not only apply this patch but also pull from the repo for full support. 2. Currently there is NO support for numbered and displayed equations which go like this x = y (1) y = z (2)

Subject: [PATCH] org.el: Add support for LaTeX to MathML conversion
* lisp/org.el (org-latex-to-mathml-jar-file)
(org-latex-to-mathml-convert-command): New user-customizable
variables.
(org-format-latex-mathml-available-p, org-create-math-formula)
(org-format-latex-as-mathml): New functions.
(org-format-latex): Add a new local variable block-type that
notes the nature of the equation - inline or display.
Associate it's value to `org-latex-src-embed-type' property of
dvipng links. Add mathml as new processing type.
