latex2image - Convert a latex equation into an image.
Usage:
I = latex2image(latexstr);
I = latex2image(latexstr,outputfile);
Inputs:
latexstr: Latex string to convert
Character row vector
Example: 'e^{\pi i} + 1 = 0'
outputfile: Output image file where the latex image should be stored
Character row vector

'C:\Documents\MATLAB\html\test.png'
Outputs:
I: Image of latex as a matrix.
Examples:
%% Example 1: Convert latex to image and get image result
I = latex2image('e^{\pi i} + 1 = 0');
imshow(I)
%% Example 2: Convert latex to a new file
latex2image('\int_0^x\!\int_y dF(u,v) + 3','testLatex2Image.png')
