Hi Wolfgang, thank you for this information. I will try with \mjtdeqn and stick to the intended latex functions for building the pdf. Moreover, we will bring up the more complicated equations in a vignette pdf.
One more question. If I use mjeqn at the beginning of a paragraph it automatically sets a line break afterwards. Any idea what I can do to prevent this?

As far as I can tell, the problem has nothing to do with mathjaxr, but your use of LaTeX commands that are not supported in creating the pdf manual (which is not done by mathjaxr but R itself). See: https://cran.r-project.org/doc/manuals/r-release/R-exts.html#Mathematics You can use AMS extensions for the HTML docs since those are supported by Mathjax, but not for the pdf manual. So, for the pdf manual, you will have to write the equation without the use of AMS extensions (and indeed use \mjtdeqn).
