Add Math LaTeX to PDF output (rst2pdf, WeasyPrint)

[gastmaier]

rst2pdf uses matplotlib optionally to do that, replicate with weasyprint[1]?
https://sourceforge.net/projects/matplotlib/
https://rst2pdf.org/static/manual.html#mathematics
Or figure out styling in rst2pdf?

[1] But it does seems matplotlib just calls latex https://matplotlib.org/stable/gallery/text_labels_and_annotations/tex_demo.html

[gastmaier]

Matplot lib contains a lightweight subset that should be good enough:

https://matplotlib.org/stable/api/mathtext_api.html

Partialy solved with a007904
Approach can be extended for WaveDrom + whatever other JavaScript backed renderer.
I'm growing in favor to not embedding third-party JavaScript renders in the doc, since:

• Slow down the doc loading
• Require the user to have JS enabled
• Require patching involving finding a non-JS replacement (or straight-up require node.js installed? (oh god no))

Note: wavedrom seems to have a Python port: https://pypi.org/project/wavedrom/
