Use our command line tool to convert between different filetypes including PDF using OCR technology. It’s a convenient option when working with documents or images on your local file system.

The first thing you need is to connect your Mathpix account with CLI interface.

Just login with your Mathpix account credentials when installing MPX CLI from the command line.

npm install -g @mathpix/mpx-cli

mpx login

More details could be found here: https://github.com/Mathpix/mpx-cli/blob/master/README.md

Just set your API key as your environment variable when installing MPX CLI from the command line.

npm install -g @mathpix/mpx-cli

export MATHPIX_OCR_API_KEY=...

mpx set-api-key ...
# This will save the key in a file at
# ~/.mpx/config on Linux, macOS, or Unix
# C:\Users\USERNAME\.mpx\config on Windows

Everything you can do from the command line with MPX CLI:

Convert PDFs from your local filesystem to formats like LaTeX, DOCX, HTML, and Markdown using OCR.

mpx convert input-file.pdf output-file.mmd
mpx convert input-file.pdf output-file.docx
mpx convert input-file.pdf output-file.tex
mpx convert input-file.pdf output-file.html

Convert between document formats like LaTeX, DOCX, and HTML using.

mpx convert input-file.mmd output-file.docx
mpx convert input-file.mmd output-file.tex
mpx convert input-file.mmd output-file.html
mpx convert input-file.mmd output-file.pdf
mpx convert input-file.mmd output-file.pdf --pdf-method html

Use the command line to convert images to LaTeX, DOCX, MMD, and HTML like you would with Snip.

mpx convert input-file.png output-file.docx
mpx convert input-file.jpeg output-file.tex

Serve local MMD files and directories as a static HTML site.

mpx serve ./input-dir
mpx serve ./input-dir/example.mmd

mpx build ./input-dir ./output-dir
