Description
**Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.**
**Describe the bug**
I am creating some functionality that allows a user to download a blog-like item as a PDF. The PDFs are rendered server-side. In these blogs, there are many occurrences of formulas in LaTeX, and I need a way to render these. To this end, I have created some custom code that converts LaTeX to a base64 PNG and I am now rendering these images inside text components.
The issue I'm facing is that I can't place the image over the text baseline to vertically centre the image.
**To Reproduce**
Steps to reproduce the behavior including code snippet (if applies):
The images are rendered using the following code snippet:
```typescript
```
The following images show in black where the image is rendered, and a red background for the text element in which it is rendered.


The reference outputs are the following:
**Describe the solution you'd like**
I would like to be able to add a `verticalAlign: 'middle'` style property to a `` component (or something similar).
**Describe alternatives you've considered**
At first, I tried to convert the LaTeX inputs to SVG, which I then converted to react-pdf's `` components. However, these can't be rendered inside of `` components.
**Additional context**
Add any other context or screenshots about the feature request here.
