Convert LaTeX to Word

Upload a .tex paper or a project .zip (with .bib for processed citations) and download a standard double-spaced manuscript .docx - Times New Roman 12pt, numbered headings, formatted figures and tables. Your files are never stored.

Drag a .tex file or project .zip here, or choose one. Max 5 MB (.tex) / 10 MB (.zip).

Accepts a single .tex or a project .zip with main.tex at the root. Complex custom macros may not convert perfectly. Files are never written to disk.

How to convert LaTeX to Word online

  1. Single file: drag your .tex paper onto the upload area, or choose it (up to 5 MB).
  2. Multi-file project: zip your project with main.tex at the root. Include your .bib file to get processed citations in the output Word document. Upload the .zip (up to 10 MB).
  3. Optionally tick Anonymize to strip the author block for double-blind submission.
  4. Click Convert to Word and download the formatted .docx manuscript.

About this tool

This converts your LaTeX to a Word document using pandoc, then reformats it to a standard double-spaced manuscript: Times New Roman 12pt body, 1-inch margins, multilevel-numbered headings, and "Figure N." / "Table N." captions. Upload a single .tex or a full project .zip. Choose Manuscript for a standard submission-ready document or Preprint for a compact single-spaced layout (11pt, 0.75-inch margins).

Are my files stored?
No. Your files are converted in an ephemeral container and discarded immediately.
Will my citations become processed references?
Yes, when you include your .bib file in the project .zip. The tool runs pandoc with --citeproc so \cite{} commands are resolved into a formatted reference list in the Word document. Upload a single .tex without a .bib and citations are left as static text.
What does "anonymize" do?
It removes the author block for double-blind submission. Leave it unchecked to keep your author line.
Why doesn't my custom formatting carry over?
Pandoc handles standard LaTeX well, but heavily customized macros and packages may degrade. The tool targets a clean, standard manuscript layout.
