[IPython-dev] nbconverter exports display latex code instead of math formulas

IPython Notebook uses MathJax to properly render LaTeX (it this was good or not
is another discussion). When you use nbconvert it will export only the LaTeX
formula hoping that you use MathJax (or other solution) to properly render
LaTeX. If you are exporting it to HTML should be easy solve this problem. If you
are exporting to another format it can be a little more difficult.

Hope this helps.
