LaTeX to HTML Converter

Turn a LaTeX formula into an HTML snippet, MathML or inline SVG, that shows in any modern browser without scripts. Paste LaTeX, copy HTML.

MathML or inline SVG

Both options need nothing else on the page. Pick the one that suits where the formula goes.

  • MathML

    Good: Real text: selectable, zoomable, read by screen readers, tiny in size. Follows your page’s font size.

    Keep in mind: Rendered by the browser’s own math fonts, so it can look slightly different between browsers.

  • Inline SVG

    Good: Looks exactly like the preview in every browser and email client that shows SVG. Takes the surrounding text color.

    Keep in mind: A drawing rather than text: larger markup, not selectable. We add role="img" and the LaTeX as its label for screen readers.

Example: inline MathML for E = mc^2
<math alttext="E = mc^2" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML">
  <mi>E</mi>
  <mo>=</mo>
  <mi>m</mi>
  <msup>
    <mi>c</mi>
    <mn>2</mn>
  </msup>
</math>

In a sentence it reads: the energy is E = m c 2 .

How to convert LaTeX to HTML

  1. Step 1: Paste the formula

    Type or paste LaTeX math; the preview checks it as you go.

  2. Step 2: Choose the markup

    MathML or inline SVG, as a block on its own line or inline in a sentence.

  3. Step 3: Copy into your page

    Copy HTML and paste it into your page source, or download a small .html file to test it.

Formulas to try

Previews here are MathML rendered by your browser. Press Try it to load one and get its HTML.

  • Inline-friendly

    Try it
    a 2 + b 2 = c 2
    a^2 + b^2 = c^2

  • Displayed integral

    Try it
    ∫ 0 1 x n d x = 1 n + 1
    \int_0^1 x^n \, dx = \frac{1}{n+1}

  • Piecewise

    Try it
    | x | = { x x ≥ 0 − x x < 0
    |x| = \begin{cases} x & x \ge 0 \\ -x & x < 0 \end{cases}

LaTeX to HTML questions

How do I put a LaTeX formula on a web page?
Paste the LaTeX above, choose MathML or inline SVG on the HTML tab, and copy the snippet into your page’s HTML. No script or library is needed on the page for either option.
Should I use MathML or SVG?
MathML for most sites: it is text, stays small and works with screen readers. Inline SVG when the formula must look identical everywhere, such as in an email or a design with strict styling.
Can it convert a whole .tex document to HTML?
No, this tool converts formulas, not documents. For a full paper or thesis, use a document converter such as Pandoc (pandoc paper.tex -s --mathml -o paper.html), tex4ht / make4ht, or LaTeXML, and use this page for single formulas.
Do readers need MathJax or KaTeX installed?
No. The snippet is finished MathML or SVG, so it displays without any script. MathJax runs only here, in your browser, to produce it.
Is HTML similar to LaTeX?
Both are markup languages, but HTML describes web pages and has no math of its own; formulas in HTML are written as MathML (or drawn as SVG or images). LaTeX describes printed documents and has math built in.
Is the output accessible?
MathML is read by screen readers directly, and we add the LaTeX as its alttext. The SVG option carries role="img" with the LaTeX as its accessible name.
