Is there a way to define a box around an equation in Pages using Latex?

Solution 1:

Here is a option for drawing a box around formulae inserted into a Pages document. This is not super elegant but could be what the OP is looking for.

• From the Menu select Insert > Equation... Enter the desired LaTex or MathML into the dialog box.

  

• Insert a 'box'. Generally, a square shape sized, fill color removed or set to desired color, with a border of the desired width.

• Align both so that the equation appears in the center.

  • It may be good to group them together option+command+G so they can be moved or resized together.
