Autype supports LaTeX math expressions as display equations using the $$ block syntax.

Multi-line — use {align=...} as an attribute on the opening $$:

Extended attributes

Use {attrs} after $$ for additional control:

Attribute reference

The renderAsImage option is recommended for complex equations in PDF/DOCX exports. It ensures the math renders exactly as displayed, regardless of the viewer’s font support.
