This is one of the simplest documents you can make:

\documentclass[12pt]{article}
\pagestyle{empty}
\begin{document}
\begin{displaymath}
\int e^x dx = e^x
\end{displaymath}
\end{document}


Then you can invoke this like so:
(first download textogif and have latex installed)
textogif filename.tex

Now you should have this image:

To make more complicated files, you can do something like this:
\documentclass[12pt]{article}
\title{Divisibility Rules}
\date{}
\begin{document}
\maketitle % this puts the title in the document
This is where the body text can go
\begin{eqnarray}
e^x &=& \int_{a}^{b}                      \\
e^x &=& \int_{a}^{b}                      \\
m &=& \frac{m_0}{\sqrt{1-\frac{v^2}{c^2}}}
\end{eqnarray}
\end{document}


Then you can generate a pdf:
latex filename.tex
dvipdfm filename.dvi


Now you should have a pdf!
