As I wrote before, I have learned from Taku Yamanaka of Osaka University about the existence of an application called LaTeX Equation Editor which allows us to prepare math formulae in PDF format that can be drag&dropped into a Keynote presentation. The current version (v.1.3), however, doesn't work under Japanese environment. Fortunately the source code became available, so I looked into it and prepared a private patch. Probably, the patch is useful only for those who are using a Language with multi-byte characters, since the unpatched version just works fine under English environment.
After patching the source code, I tried to rebuild the Equation Editor with ProjectBuilder. The source code did not compile with gcc2. I thus had to set USE_GCC3 = YES explicityly in the "Target/Build Style" sub-pannel of ProjectBuilder's main window. The rebuilt patched version of LaTeX Equation Editor so far works fine under Japanese environment on my machine. I have sent the patch to the creator of LaTeX Equation Editor sometime ago. I hope it or something equivalent will be included in the original source tree for the next version.
A tip for changing the color of a part of your formula:
The color selected from the color palette is applied to the whole formula. If you want to change the color of a part of it, you need to uncheck
Insert \color{...} command automatically after preamble
in the Preferences pannel and add to the Preamble lines like
\usepackage[dvips]{color}
\definecolor{orange}{rgb}{1,0.6,0}
\definecolor{navy}{rgb}{0,0,0.5}
\definecolor{gold}{rgb}{0.85,0.64,0.13}
\definecolor{tomato}{rgb}{1,0.4,0.28}
Then you can use these newly defined colors in the LaTeX input window as,
for instance,\color{orange} a
\color{red} =
\color{navy} b
Notice that basic colors like red, blue, yellow, black, white, etc. are predefined by default and can be used without redefining them in the preamble.
As for the RPMs I have built for MacOS X Release 10.2.X, the following directories might be useful:
where you can find spec files, my private patches, source RPMs, and binary RPMs, respectively. Note that the RPMS directory contains two subdirectories, "ppc" for architecture-dependent binariy packages, while "noarch" for those architecture-independent. For those packages without real source RPMs or those provided only as tar balls, you can find the corresponding original source packages and my private patches in src. The binary tar balls are in tgz.
These packages have been tested on my machines (G3 Series PowerBook, aka Wallstreet and Ti PowerBook G4) but might not work on your platform. Install them thus at your own risk.
Notice also that new packages are under ~fujiik/macosx/10.2.X/, while the old ones built on Release 10.1.X, 10.0.X, and Public Beta are under ~fujiik/macosx/10.1.X/, ~fujiik/macosx/10.0.X/, and ~fujiik/macosx/, respectively, and will not be supported.
