LaTeX Support
A LaTeX-native workspace for researchers who live in equations, preprints, BibTeX, and compile logs.
Write and compile real projects
Academe opens .tex, .bib, class, style, and figure files as a project, not as isolated text snippets.
Compile with pdfLaTeX, XeLaTeX, or LuaLaTeX, keep a project-wide main file, inspect parsed errors, and use SyncTeX to move between source and the rendered PDF. Nested files keep their project-relative paths, so editing sections/proof.tex still compiles through the root manuscript.

The chat harness sees the active LaTeX file, selection, outline, compile log, citation keys, figures, and current PDF/source focus. Ask it to:
- Fix compile errorsRead the log, jump to the failing line, and propose a source-level repair.
- Insert native structuresGenerate equations, tables, figures, cross-references, and TikZ-ready source in the active file.
- Ground citationsUse the project bibliography before inserting cite keys, and heal unresolved citations when a key is missing.
- Revise sectionsEdit selected LaTeX directly while preserving commands, labels, equations, and citation syntax.
Symbols, equations, and scanned math
Use the symbol palette, equation insertion, table builder, image-to-LaTeX conversion, and handwritten-note scan flow when typing the source by hand would slow down the research.
These tools write normal LaTeX into the same CodeMirror editor, so the result stays portable to arXiv, Overleaf, journal submission systems, and local TeX toolchains.
Importing LaTeX documents
Upload an Overleaf-style zip, import a shared Overleaf project, or paste a DOI/arXiv ID from the file menu. Zip imports preserve folders, detect the root manuscript, and populate the project library from included BibTeX; arXiv imports bring in the source tree when available, including support files such as class/style files, BibTeX, TikZ/PGF, Asymptote, and figure assets.
Project downloads, GitHub sync, and submission bundles preserve the same tree so you can move work back out as a normal LaTeX project instead of being locked into Academe.
Export and submit
Export source, bibliography, figures, and compiled PDFs as ordinary files. Submission bundles include manuscript sources, bibliography, figures, metadata, and the latest compiled PDF when available.
Journal preflight checks inspect word count, unresolved citations, figures, and disclosure requirements before you leave the workspace.
