The way matplotlib does its MathText rendering is 1) incomplete (we don't
support all of MathTex), and 2) has *massive* overhead (relatively
speaking). Matplotlib is intended for producing figures with many disparate
components. The amount of code it takes to just generate a simple plot is
fairly s
Why do you suggest MathJax? I assume Javascript will be less efficient than
Python. Moreover, I'm not sure I can get the MathJax output as polygonal
primitives that I can send to OpenGL. And, to complicate things, you cannot
use JIT Javascript engines on iOS such as V8, due to sandboxing.
In fact,
why not use MathJax?

Hi,
I need to render LaTeX math formulas on mobile apps (iOS/Android), with high
quality, and as efficiently as possible.
I'm considering matplotlib as the best candidate at the moment. Maybe it
might be a bit overkill because I don't need plotting, just math formulas
rendering, but it has a "cop
