If you type into the inline equation "\textrm" (without the quotes) then press space you will get a text box in the equation like the one that they have used. However their example is bad in three ways: * You should use \text not \textrm. \text uses the surrounding font whereas \textrm forces upright roman text. * You should only use \text on actual snippets of text, not on math e.g. that user has used it on the variable s (perhaps they were trying to get bold upright; use can get this with \mathbf) * You should not use \textrm to get upright prefixes like Re and Im.
