    Thanks, but I want a zero-width non-breaking character, or else there would be a visible space between the punctuation and the math, which looks bad. I also tried inserting U+2060 (ctrl+shift+u, then 2060) from here, but, surprisingly, this didn't work either. Maybe it is a limitation of how LibreOffice allows "words" (which in this case include characters and an image) to be broken across lines.

    I have the following model: X = D(F+S(1+G)) D ∼ Exp(1/λ) F ∼ Unif(0,1) S ∼ Poi(σ) G ∼ Exp(1/γ) which I want to fit via Gibbs sampling - i.e., estimate λ, σ, and γ, all having uninformative priors. The problem is: the available data are not realizations of X, but rather frequency (proportion) data for some (5) ranges of X, which also have confidence intervals - e.g., P(0 ≤ X < 2) = 0.22, 95% CI: (0.19, 0.26). If X had a standard distribution, we could use the cumulative distribution function to model...
