The default is to use latex, but only in environments that support it, namely the IPython notebook or the ipython qtconsole of you have latex or matplotlib installed. See the printing section of the tutorial.
If it's not enabling latex for you in those environments, that's a bug.

It apparently causes not-so-pretty ascii output to appear in the documentation, as in http://docs.sympy.org/0.7.3/tutorial/intro.htm<http://docs.sympy.org/0.7.3/tutorial/intro.html> l Maybe that page should be change to replace calls of init_printing() with init_printing(use_latex=True) ? (or maybe change the current default behaviour of init_printing) thanks, R -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sympy" group.
