LaTeX, LaTeX Math, & MathJax Add-ons

[Deb Whitcomb]

Can someone provide a comparison of the following add-ons?  Do these add-ons overlap in capabilities?  

• Markdown Macro, HTML, PlantUML, LaTeX, Diagrams
• Confluence: LaTeX and MathJax 
• Confluence: LaTeX Math

Hi @Deb Whitcomb and welcome to the community,

The best thing to do is to install them on your instance as a trial and try them out yourself. The probabilities of someone having test them all, could be slim. Don't wait for nothing :/

[Deb Whitcomb]

Thanks!  We'll trial each of these add-ons.

If you're looking for an addon for adding LaTeX in a Confluence page, I would recommend our app, LaTeX EASY math equation for Confluence .

LaTeX EASY math equation for Confluence | Atlassian Marketplace 

You can choose inline/ block mode when you add LaTeX. As well as, it provides real time preview and selectable formula entry UI so you can easily add and edit formulas.

Thanks, we'll add LaTeX Easy Math Equations for Confluence to our trial.

Does you addon support nested lists (if I insert a formula in a nested list, will it respect nesting)?

Hi Andrei,

If you need to use formula in a list, our app:

LaTeX Math for Confluence - Math Formula & Equations

has LaTeX Inline macro which supports that. Try it and let us know if you face any issues.

Also, you can consider other solutions from Marketplace. For instance :

• LaTeX for Confluence
• Content Formatting Macros for Confluence

The second one has a list of other macros for content formatting in Confluence that could be useful for you or your team. For example, there are button macros, numbered headings, tabs, tooltips, footnotes, cards, background macros, etc.  It is developed by my team, so if you have any questions about it - let me know.
