pdf-to-latex

# PDF to LaTeX Convert PDF documents to LaTeX format using MinerU. Best suited for academic papers and documents with formulas or complex layouts. ## Install ```bash npm install -g mineru-open-api # or via Go (macOS/Linux): go install github.com/opendatalab/MinerU-Ecosystem/cli/mineru-open-api@latest ``` ## Quick Start ```bash # Convert PDF to LaTeX (requires token) mineru-open-api extract paper.pdf -f latex -o ./out/ # With VLM model for better accuracy on complex layouts mineru-open-api extract paper.pdf -f latex --model vlm -o ./out/ # From arXiv URL mineru-open-api extract https://arxiv.org/pdf/2309.10918 -f latex -o ./out/ ``` ## Authentication Token required: ```bash mineru-open-api auth # Interactive token setup export MINERU_TOKEN="your-token" # Or via environment variable ``` Create token at: https://mineru.net/apiManage/token ## Capabilities - Supported input: .pdf (local file or URL) - Output format: LaTeX (`-f latex`) - LaTeX output requires `extract` with token — not available in `flash-extract` - Use `--model vlm` for papers with complex math, tables, or multi-column layouts - Language hint with `--language` (default: `ch`, use `en` for English) ## Notes - LaTeX output (`-f latex`) is only available via `extract` with token - `--model vlm` gives higher accuracy but may have rare hallucination risk; use `pipeline` for guaranteed fidelity - Output goes to stdout by default; use `-o <dir>` to save to a file - All progress/status messages go to stderr; document content goes to stdout - MinerU is open-source by OpenDataLab (Shanghai AI Lab): https://github.com/opendatalab/MinerU
