Have you ever tried pasting LaTeX syntax like $\Sigma$ directly into a Confluence page — only to see plain text instead of a properly formatted inline formula?
That’s because Confluence treats your syntax as normal text rather than a formula. As a result, some teams turn to workarounds, such as inserting formulas as inline images. While this approach might be fine for occasional use, screenshots don’t scale well and can quickly become difficult to manage and update.
A more reliable approach is to use a dedicated LaTeX app for Confluence that supports:
Inline formulas (fully integrated in text)
Block formulas (displayed as separate equation elements)
