LaTeX Equation Editor
Type LaTeX or click symbols and watch the equation render as you type. Export it as an image, MathML, HTML or Typst, paste it into Word, or share a link.
- Free, no sign-up
- Live MathJax preview
- Symbol panel and templates
Export your equation anywhere
One formula, every format you are likely to need. Pick an output tab under the preview.
PNG, JPG and SVG images
Pick a size and color, keep the background transparent, and drop the image into slides, documents or chat. SVG stays sharp at any zoom.
Word equations
Copy for Word pastes an equation you can keep editing in Word. Signed in, you can also download a .docx file for 1 credit.
MathML
Standard math markup for web pages, Word and screen readers, as a block or inline formula.
HTML snippet
MathML or inline SVG wrapped for a web page, with the LaTeX kept as alt text.
Typst and Unicode
The same formula in Typst math syntax, or as plain Unicode text for chat and email. Anything that does not translate is flagged.
Share link
The formula is packed into the link itself, so whoever opens it sees the same equation. Nothing is saved on our server.
How to write an equation in LaTeX
Step 1: Type or click
Write LaTeX in the box, pick a template, or click symbols in the panel. Templates such as \frac{}{} put the cursor where you type next.
Step 2: Check the preview
The formula redraws as you type. Errors and unknown commands show in red with a short explanation.
Step 3: Export or share
Copy the LaTeX, copy for Word, download PNG, SVG or JPG, or switch to MathML, HTML, Typst or Unicode. Share link copies a link to this exact formula.
Common LaTeX math commands
The building blocks most equations need. Press Try it to load one into the editor and change it.
Fraction
Try it\frac{a}{b}Square and n-th root
Try it\sqrt{x} + \sqrt[3]{y}Superscript and subscript
Try itx_{i}^{2}Sum with limits
Try it\sum_{i=1}^{n} i = \frac{n(n+1)}{2}Definite integral
Try it\int_{0}^{1} x^2 \, dx = \frac{1}{3}Limit
Try it\lim_{x \to 0} \frac{\sin x}{x} = 1Matrix
Try it\begin{bmatrix} 1 & 0 \\ 0 & 1 \end{bmatrix}Cases
Try itf(x) = \begin{cases} x^2 & x \ge 0 \\ 0 & x < 0 \end{cases}Greek letters and relations
Try it\alpha \le \beta \ne \gamma \approx \pi
LaTeX equation editor questions
- Is this LaTeX equation editor free?
- Yes. Writing, previewing, copying and exporting images, MathML, HTML, Typst and Unicode are free with no account and no limit. Only the Word (.docx) download needs an account and uses 1 credit; Copy for Word stays free.
- How do I get the equation into Microsoft Word?
- Press Copy for Word and paste into Word: the formula arrives as a Word equation you can edit, not a picture. You can also download a .docx file with the equation after signing in (1 credit). If you only need a picture, download a PNG or SVG instead.
- Which LaTeX commands does the editor understand?
- The preview uses MathJax, which covers standard LaTeX math plus amsmath and amssymb: fractions, roots, sums, integrals, matrices, cases, aligned equations, accents, arrows and font commands such as \mathbb and \mathcal. A command it does not know is shown in red so you can fix it.
- How does the share link work?
- Share link compresses your LaTeX into the part of the address after the # sign and copies the link. Opening it restores the formula in the editor. The formula is not uploaded or stored anywhere, so the link keeps working as long as this page exists.
- Can I export a PNG with a transparent background?
- Yes. Choose PNG or SVG on the Image tab and keep Transparent background ticked. JPG has no transparency, so it always gets a white background. Size sets the resolution, from 1× to 6×.
- Is my formula sent anywhere?
- Rendering, image export and the MathML, HTML, Typst and Unicode outputs all run in your browser. Only the Word (.docx) download sends the LaTeX to our server to build the file.
- Can I write a whole LaTeX document here?
- No. This editor is for equations. For full documents with sections, figures and a bibliography, use a document editor such as Overleaf, then paste the equations you build here.
