--- Comment #5 from V Stuart Foote <vstuart.foote at utsa.edu> ---
Looking at attachment 163097 the latex2rtf converted formula is generated as MS
RTF Field code 'EQ'

See little reason to tweak RTF import filters to parse as the latex2rtf project
makes no effort beyond MS Word, or using the RTF 'EQ' field code extensions to
hold the equations. And this is NOTOURBUG?

Ideally we'd want MathML, but I guess MathType MTEF could be parsed. The RTF
Field extensions are an unsupported dead end which the latex2rtf project
concedes is getting progressively worse in fidelity on their target Word
platform.
