"save and export as html" mathjax version

JupyterLab
1

When I use “Save and Export Notebook As > HTML” within lab it does very nearly what I want, except that it exports with mathjax version 2. Simple question: does anyone know how to fix this so it is using version 3? Or is this expected behavior?

Just updated lab to 4.4.9 (+ all deps), and mathjax 3 is working fine with normal notebook rendering in lab. It’s not impossible that I have some old settings that would cause this, but if so, I haven’t figured that out.

(In general I’m having trouble getting any printing/conversion to do what I want, but that’s a bit of a broader topic. Print to PDF results in unrendered mathjax in cell outputs, export to PDF results in various things I’m using not being handled, and I couldn’t for the life of me get export to webpdf to work at all. So I’d be interested in tips on any of these. Export to HTML is the closest because it results in only minor math glitching, e.g. mathjax 2 doesn’t support \textbf within \text and things like that.)

Still struggling with this. I believe the problem is simply that nbconvert hasn’t been updated to use mathjax 3.

I was coming back to this aiming to submit a nbconvert PR to nudge this along, but it turns out the PR was written and has been around so long (years) that it is is stale:

Does anybody have suggestions for what it would take to get this (or a descendant) merged? At this point Jupyter’s defaults have mismatched nbconvert for 2+ years, despite the export options being a very visible jupyter command, and I would guess this is getting to be a problem for more than me!
