To make the preview image, you should modify Path settings in a 
Preference window.
Did you try the way below?

I think so, too. A menu-selecting interface was not good. I will 
improve.

I forgot to support some symbols like ＼propto. If you find them, please 
notify me.

And,
I didn't think over the case using this version of RPN2TeX with amsmath 
or amssymb.
If you want to use symbols like ＼nless, please add 
"＼usepackage{amssymb}" to Preamble in a Preference window and type 
"＼nless" in the input field.

Sorry, I can't understand.
