How to convert a TeX file to PDF
- Paste your LaTeX source into the editor, or choose Open .tex to select a file.
- If your document uses images or local style files, select Add files and keep their filenames the same as in your source.
- Choose Compile PDF. The first compile downloads the required engine, fonts, and packages.
- Check the PDF preview, then select Download PDF. If compilation fails, open the log to find the error.
For resumes, reports, and equations
Use this online LaTeX compiler for documents written for pdfLaTeX, including resumes, assignments, and reports. You can edit the source and recompile without installing a TeX distribution.
For a resume template, check its required compiler first. Templates using system fonts or XeLaTeX-only packages need a different engine.
Before you compile
A .tex file contains source code, so it must be compiled to produce a PDF. This tool uses pdfLaTeX through SwiftLaTeX in a browser worker.
Uploads use individual filenames, not ZIP projects or folder trees. Shell commands, Biber, and XeLaTeX/LuaLaTeX-only features are not supported.
Common questions
Is this LaTeX to PDF converter free?
Yes. You can open the converter, compile a document, and download its PDF without an account.
Are my documents uploaded to a server?
Your source and supporting files are processed in your browser. The compiler downloads required TeX packages and fonts from a package server. It sends requests for package filenames, not your document contents.
Why does the first compile take longer?
The browser needs to load the compiler and fetch the packages used by your document. Later compiles reuse downloaded packages while the page stays open. An internet connection is needed for those downloads.
Why did my .tex file fail to compile?
Check the compilation log for a missing file, an unsupported package, or a LaTeX syntax error. Confirm that the document is written for pdfLaTeX and that any supporting files have been added with the correct names.
