Frequently Asked Questions about Image to LaTeX
How accurate is the image to LaTeX conversion?
Our AI-powered image recognition technology can accurately convert most clear images of printed or neatly handwritten mathematical equations into LaTeX code. The accuracy typically exceeds 95% for clear images, but may vary depending on image quality and equation complexity.
What image formats are supported?
We support all common image formats including PNG, JPG, JPEG, GIF, BMP, WEBP, and TIFF. For best results, we recommend using high-resolution images with clear contrast between the equation and background.
Can I convert handwritten equations?
Yes, our AI is trained to recognize neatly handwritten mathematical equations. Our OCR achieves 90-95% accuracy on clear handwriting and 98%+ on printed text. For best results, ensure your handwriting is clear and well-lit when taking photos.
Is there a limit to the complexity of equations that can be converted?
Our system can handle most mathematical equations, from basic arithmetic to complex multi-line equations with special symbols. Yes! Our AI recognizes complex structures including nested fractions, multi-line equations, matrices, integrals, summations, limits, and advanced mathematical notation from various fields. Very specialized notation or extremely complex layouts might require manual adjustments after conversion.
How long does the conversion process take?
Most conversions are completed within seconds. The exact time depends on the complexity of the equation and the current server load, but typically ranges from 2-10 seconds.
Can I edit the LaTeX code after conversion?
Yes, after the conversion, you can edit the generated LaTeX code in our editor to make any necessary adjustments. The real-time preview will update as you make changes, allowing you to correct any errors and perfect the output before copying.
What happens if the conversion is incorrect?
If the conversion result is not accurate, you can manually edit the LaTeX code, try uploading a clearer image, or use our AI assistant to help correct the equation by describing what needs to be fixed.
Is there a file size limit for images?
Images must be under 10MB in size. For best results, use images with resolution between 300-600 DPI. Higher resolution images generally produce better OCR results.
