Export latex equation to word using scroll export does not keep size of brackets

I'm using app LatexMath to write equations with large brackets (e.g. matrixes) on Confluence. The display works correctly in confluence, but when exporting to Word (using scroll) the large brackets become small. See picture attached.

Is there a way to maintain the bracket sizes when exporting to Word?

Hi @Ana Cipriano

The core issue is that two Marketplace apps are handing off to each other here. LaTeX Math (Tensixtwo) renders the equation, and Scroll Word Exporter (K15t) captures that rendered output and drops it into Word. Your tall brackets come from \left( ... \right), which auto-sizes them at full height in Confluence. The exporter then captures the result and fits it to the text line, which flattens the delimiters.

Have you tried running a Scroll PDF export of the same page?

As a workaround, I would insert the equation as a high-resolution image rather than the live macro, so the exporter passes it through untouched.

Cheers, Martin
