Why Word to LaTeX and PDF to LaTeX Conversion Needs a Specialist
We tested Pandoc and popular converters against a real document: 15-page IEEE paper, 25 equations, 4 tables, 30 citations.
| Tool | Equations | Tables | Bibliography | Compiles? | Usable? |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Pandoc | Converted to images | Broken alignment | Missing fields | 47 errors | No |
| pdf2latex | Skipped entirely | Misaligned text | Not included | Failed | No |
| Online tools | Gibberish output | Formatting lost | Not extracted | Broken | No |
| The LaTeX Lab | Typeset in math mode | Professional rebuild | Clean BibTeX | Zero errors | Yes |
Why automated tools fail: PDFs and Word files store equations as images or proprietary formats. There's no reliable way to reverse-engineer LaTeX from rendered output.
Why specialist conversion works: We read your equations and type them in proper LaTeX math mode. Tables are rebuilt. Bibliography is entered in BibTeX with all required fields.
Time required from you: Zero hours.
