Trying to merge TeX rendering into a Winforms standalone.
After building or downloading the enclosed project, execute ILMerge-vs-WpfMath.Standalone.exe from a bin subfolder. The execution should succeed in rendering the equation.
Now, try moving the standalone executable to it's own folder (specifically, where WpfMath.dll is not present). The execution will fail, throwing:
System.TypeInitializationException: The type initializer for 'WpfMath.DefaultTexFont' threw an exception. ---> System.IO.FileNotFoundException: The system cannot find the file specified. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80070002)

Finally, try copying WpfMath.dll next to the standalone executable, and the render should succeed on reexecution.
Some resource of WpfMath.dll is not being merged properly, or one of it's resources is not included in such a way that it can be merged.
Either way, this repository will be linked to issues in both projects.
