Frequently Asked Questions

Many journals and academic institutions require Word submissions despite LaTeX being the preferred format for technical writing. Converting LaTeX to DOCX enables collaboration with co-authors who use Word, submission to non-LaTeX-friendly journals, and sharing with reviewers who prefer Word's track changes feature.

Yes. LaTeX math expressions ($inline$ and $$display$$) are converted to Word's native equation format (Office Math Markup Language). This ensures equations remain editable in Word and display correctly across all platforms. Complex math like matrices, integrals, and Greek symbols are fully supported.

LaTeX tables convert to native Word tables with proper borders and alignment. Figure references using \includegraphics need image URLs or embedded images. For academic papers, manually verify table captions and cross-references in Word after conversion, as complex environments may need adjustment.

Standard LaTeX citation commands (\cite, \ref) are preserved as text references. For complete bibliographies, you'll need to compile with BibTeX first to generate the bibliography, or manually format citations in Word. Complex bibliography styles may require citation manager software like Zotero or Mendeley.

Common packages like amsmath, graphicx, and hyperref are supported. Standard document classes (article, report, book) convert well. Custom macros and complex packages may not convert perfectly. For best results, use standard LaTeX syntax and avoid highly specialized packages before conversion.

Many journals accept only Word submissions even for STEM papers. Convert your LaTeX manuscript to DOCX to meet submission requirements without rewriting. Perfect for dual-submission strategies where you maintain the LaTeX source but provide Word files when required by specific venues.

Section headings, bold, italic, lists, and paragraph structure convert accurately. LaTeX \section becomes Word Heading 1, \subsection becomes Heading 2, etc. Some advanced formatting like custom spacing or complex layouts may need manual adjustment in Word after conversion.

One-way conversion to DOCX is reliable. Converting back from Word to LaTeX is possible but may lose formatting. Best workflow: maintain LaTeX as source of truth, convert to Word for collaborator edits, then manually incorporate changes back into LaTeX source using Word's track changes.

Yes, excellent for thesis chapters that need sharing with advisors who prefer Word. Long documents with complex structures convert well. For final submission, verify university formatting requirements as some accept LaTeX directly. Use standalone mode with metadata for proper title pages and author information.

Most academic papers (20-50 pages) convert instantly. Longer documents like dissertations (100+ pages) may take a few seconds. The tool runs in your browser with no file size upload limits. For multi-file LaTeX projects, combine your .tex files into a single document before conversion.
