In a part of my project for creating a dataset, I have a text file containing a list of a bunch of latex equations . Now I want to convert them into images through python in diffrent font sizes. But i dont know how to do it. Please help.

This is the list of latex symbols I am using:- https://docs.mathpix.com/#vocabulary
