Hi

I would like to typeset a formula as a figure, so that the formula enters the numbering scheme of figures and that I gain the possibility of adding a figure caption. An example were this would be practical is when using ppchtex. I've been googling but having trouble finding hints on how to make such a construction. Is it possible at all?

See Section 13.5 page 300 (absolute page 303) of cont-eni.pdf. Uses a buffer and a tmp-file name.

This works nicely, thanks. -Peter
