[OS X TeX] Exponents in Hyperref bookmark

[David Arnold]

Michael,

No, don't think so. Open:

http://mathrev.redwoods.edu/ElemAlgText/chapter6/chapter6.pdf

Open the bookmarks and click on section 6.3. The math is typeset in the document, but not in the bookmark. I am wondering if there is a way to get this particular math (ax^2+bx+c when a=1) typeset as well in the bookmark.
