Hi Matt, Thanks for taking this branch for a spin and reporting back. I’m a bit mystified by the difference you see between `$$' and `\(\)' delimiters (I can’t detect any difference my end). Regarding the specific comments in your last email though: Matt Huszagh writes: > When using \(\)

Timothy, Another minor issue I've encountered. Using different delimiters results in images of slightly different sizes. For example, in a file containing: ``` Using first delimiters: \(F=ma\). Using other delimiters: $F=ma$. ``` The snippet with dollar sign delimiters is slightly larger than

Hi Timothy, Thanks for your work on this. I've run into an issue related to the change you made in 209e5f5f4047a34db27c3b5dff4077bb1da9ceed that makes org-latex-compile asynchronous. This breaks the org-babel-latex-pdf-svg-process functionality I introduced in commit
