Question: how to convert latex output to string in older versions of Maple?

I just found that Maple 17 and Maple 16 do not have the option "output=string" in the latex command.

And I need a way to convert the Latex generated to the screen to a string and save it to a variable like I can do with Maple 2017

Here is an example. In current Maple 2017 this works

result_of_int:=int((-5+3*x)^2/(2*x-1)^(7/2),x):
my_latex:= latex(result_of_int,output=string);

But in Maple 16, it gives an error

If I remove the output, then the result is not string.

How to capture the above output which is on the screen and save it as string in a variable?

I do not want to send the output to a file as is. I need to first convert it to a string, and save
it to variable first.
