寻找一个独立的方程式渲染库

是否存在一个小型的，自包含的库，该库可以将以基于文本的格式(例如LaTeX或MathML)编写的方程式呈现到图像(矢量或栅格)上?

Is there such a thing as a small, self-contained library that will render an equation written in a text-based format (e.g. LaTeX or MathML) to an image (either vector or raster)?

如果它是Python或Python友好版本，那就更好了.

It would be preferable if it's in Python or Python-friendly.

(我发现的一种可能性: Matplotlib 具有使用以下代码解析和显示LaTeX方程的Python代码: gl2ps.如果找不到其他内容，似乎可以将所有相关位提取到一个单独的库中.)

(One possibility that I've found: Matplotlib has Python code to parse and display LaTeX equations, using gl2ps. If I don't find anything else it seems possible to extract all the relevant bits into a separate library.)

通过自包含"，我是说他们不能使用TeX/LaTex本身，因为不幸的是我不能依靠它的安装

by "self-contained" I mean they can't use TeX/LaTex itself since unfortunately I can't rely on it being installed
