Features & Capabilities

LaTeX From Web is a powerful browser extension that enables users to extract and copy LaTeX code from mathematical equations displayed on any website. With a simple hover and click, you can grab the exact LaTeX source without viewing the page’s HTML or developer tools.

Key Features:

  • Wide Site Compatibility: Seamlessly works on Wikipedia, Stack Exchange, arXiv, and any other website using MathJax or KaTeX to render equations.
  • Cross-Browser Support: Fully functional on Chrome, Firefox, Edge, Safari, and other Chromium-based browsers.
  • Precision Copying: Each individual equation is recognized and linked to its correct LaTeX source, ensuring accurate results.
  • Smart Detection: The extension automatically identifies and activates only on supported equations, minimizing interference with other page content.
  • Modern UI: Comes with a clean, dark-themed popup panel designed for minimalism and usability.
  • Usage Tracking: Displays daily stats including the number of LaTeX copies and visited sites for your reference.
  • Lightweight and Secure: No third-party scripts or analytics — 100% privacy focused.

How to Use:

  • After installing the extension, click on the icon in your browser toolbar.
  • Use the toggle to enable the extension.
  • Navigate to any webpage containing rendered equations.
  • Hover over any equation and a "Copy LaTeX" button will appear.
  • Click the button to copy the LaTeX code to your clipboard.
  • You can paste this code into your LaTeX editor, Overleaf, Notion, or anywhere you need it.

Troubleshooting:

  • If the "Copy" button doesn’t appear, wait a moment for the equations to fully render, then try hovering again.
  • If the extension doesn’t respond, ensure it's toggled on in the popup and refresh the webpage.

Is LaTeX From Web Safe?

Risk impact
Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

LaTeX From Web requires some sensitive permissions that could impact your browser and data security. Exercise caution before installing.

Risk likelihood
Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Firefox add-on may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Firefox add-on reputation on Firefox Add-ons Store, the amount of time the Firefox add-on has been around, and other signals about the Firefox add-on. Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always exercise caution when installing a Firefox add-on.

LaTeX From Web is probably trust-worthy. Prefer other publishers if available. Exercise caution when installing this add-on.
