Bolo is joining the Appfire family!

We’re excited to announce that Bolo has been acquired by Appfire, an Atlassian Platinum Marketplace Partner who has been a global authority in the Atlassian ecosystem for more than 15 years.

Easily use LaTeX formatting on your confluence pages. Your LaTeX will be rendered with MathJax. Intuitively add LaTeX representations of complex formula that will be rendered properly.

## Macros

LaTeX Math Lite consists of 3 macros. All macros can be accessed by typing / or using the macro browser.

MacroDescription
Math InlineThis implements the LaTeX inline math mode. For displaying formulas or symbols inline with the surrounding text (e.g. "\tau").
Math Block

This implements the LaTeX equation math mode. The output will be shown on it's own line with the selected horizontal alignment (default = centered).

The Math Block macro supports numbering. Numbering is enabled by when a non-empty "anchor" is given.

Math Block ReferenceThis macro will show a link to the Math Block macro with the same anchor.

## Numbering

Math Block macros have an 'anchor' parameter that can be changed in the macro editor. When this parameter is filled it enables numbering for that macro. If the same anchor is used in a Math Block Reference, it will render a link with the correct number. For example, here is a link to the macro below: (1)
