When Markdown converted to PDF, math markup disapperars

[WriterArtistCoder]

If you type math markup in a Markdown document, e.g.

$$f{x} = \int_{-\infty}^\infty
    \hat f\xi\,e^{2 \pi i \xi x}
    \,d\xi$$

it doesn't display correctly when converted to a PDF.

Good catch. This has to do with the PDF renderer Dillinger uses. Maybe there's a setting or configuration option that needs to be set?

I looked at the md-to-pdf package and its dependency Marked and couldn't find any options about math markup. Maybe the math could be rendered as SVG images before the document is converted to a PDF?

Good idea. Pull requests accepted.

Oh ok! I'm still new to contributing to open-source things, haha. I'll give it a shot.
