I have a org file with source, documentation and latex code. Latex stuff draws a bunch of graphs explaining how functions interact with each other. According to,
http://orgmode.org/manual/LaTeX-fragments.html
org-mode should export latex code as images when using html export.
#+TITLE: Test
#+AUTHOR: Blah
#+LATEX_HEADER: \usepackage{tikz}
#+OPTIONS: LaTeX:dvipng
#+begin_latex
\begin{tikzpicture}
\draw (1,0) -- (0,1) -- (-1,0) -- (0,-1) -- cycle;
\end{tikzpicture}
#+end_latex
Above works if I use pdf export so my latex setup is working also dvipng is present on my system but when exporting to html latex block is completely ignored.
I wasn't able to make tikzpicture blocks working but #+begin_latex
and #+end_latex
shouldn't be use, as said in your link to the Org-Mode documentation, only \begin{...} LATEX_CODE end{...}
is required.
This snippet should work.
#+OPTIONS: LaTeX:dvipng
* Test
Blah
\begin{equation} % arbitrary environments,
x=\sqrt{b} % even tables, figures
\end{equation} % etc
If $a^2=b$ and \( b=2 \), then the solution must be either $$
a=+\sqrt{2} $$ or \[ a=-\sqrt{2} \].
Done !
