Has anyone experimented with using TeX to generate equations, store them as
.eps, and then insert them into troff in some way that makes:
.BP eqn1.eps
.EP
look like
.EQ (1)
sqrt{ {x sup 2 + x + 1} over {x - 1}}
.EN
Only without the broken font/line drawing when converted from postscript to pdf?
Convoluted I know, but it sure would make $\sqrt{ {{x^2 + x + 1}\over {x-1}} }$
look more acceptable in a PDF generated on Plan 9 from troff source.
