  • $\begingroup$ Your answer suggests that Mathematica itself can render TeX. Can it? $\endgroup$ Commented Jan 12, 2013 at 22:29

    $\begingroup$ To a certain extent you can render $\LaTeX$, but it's very incomplete. The general idea is to use something like TraditionalForm@ToExpression["\\sin\\alpha", TeXForm, HoldForm]. I discussed this in this answer $\endgroup$ Commented Jan 12, 2013 at 22:50

    $\begingroup$ I just realized you may be looking for something simpler: when we say "render" $\LaTeX$, it could also mean to produce traditional-looking formulas from Mathematica standard form input. That is simply done by wrapping any such input in TraditionalForm[ ...]. You could say TraditionalForm is Mathematica's "pretty-print formula" typesetting mode. $\endgroup$ Commented Jan 13, 2013 at 0:12
