KLFBackend Library Documentation

This documentation is the API documentation for the KLatexFormula library backend that you may want to use in your programs. It is a GPL-licensed library based on QT 5 that converts a LaTeX equation given as text into graphics, specifically PNG, EPS or PDF (and the image is available as a QImage—so any format supported by Qt is available.

Starting KLFBackend version 4.0, this library uses Qt5.

Some utilities to save the output (in various formats) to a file or a QIODevice are provided, see KLFBackend::saveOutputToFile() and KLFBackend::saveOutputToDevice().

All the core functionality is based in the class KLFBackend .

This library has been tested to work in non-GUI applications (ie. FALSE in QApplication constructor, or with QCoreApplication).
