I tried this :

#+property: header-args:sage :session
#+options: tex:t toc:nil author:nil
#+begin_src emacs-lisp :exports none
  ;; (customize-set-variable
  ;;  'org-latex-to-mathml-convert-command
  ;;  "latexmlmath \"%i\" --presentationmathml=%o")
  (custom-set-variables
   '(org-latex-to-mathml-convert-command
      "java -jar %j -unicode -force -df %o %I")
   '(org-latex-to-mathml-jar-file
      "/usr/local/bin/mathtoweb.jar"))
#+end_src

A "normal" function call with org result...

#+name: foo
#+begin_src emacs-lisp :exports both :results org
  "Pseudo-function returning a LaTeX pseudo-result."
  "\\[\\displaystyle{\\sin\\left(\\frac{a}{b}\\right)}\\]"
#+end_src

#+RESULTS: foo
#+begin_src org
\[\displaystyle{\sin\left(\frac{a}{b}\right)}\]
#+end_src

Which exports the LaTeX *source* (uncompiled) in PDF, HTML and ODT.

I'm currently lookin into a =:post= workaround. But an option to export =latex= blocks to selected exporters (ODT, HTML, possibly Morkdown via pandoc).

I'll keep you posted.

Can you declare the output as org so they will just be latex snippets?

Dear list,

Org-mode offers the ability to create functions returning LaTeX results : such occurrences are frequent with Sagemath, Maxima, Mathematica, R, and even emacs's Calc...

Such functions can be declared has having LaTeX output, and the resulting  =#+begin_export latex ...  #+end_export latex= block is exported as LaTeX and end up in the PDF versin.

But such blocks seem to export *only* to LaTeX/PDF ; more specically, they do not export to HTML nor ODT. In order to insert those results at export, one *has* to print them *raw*. See the attached examples, and compare PDF, HTML and ODT outputs of the enclosed zip archive (necessary to avoid the wrath of the spam filter of my provider ;-)...)..

Unless I am mistaken, this is the *only* way to export LaTeX exports to HTML/ODT ; I am not aware of any option allowing to force such exports. So a couple questions :
  • Am I mistaken ?
  • Are there more steamlined ways to get LaTeX in HTML/ODF/whatever-but-not-LaTeX ?
  • Wouldn't an option to allow these exports be a welcome addition to the export structure (or possibly to the various exporters) ?

Thanks in advance,
