Does anyone have got an experience on that? I'm thinking about two alternatives: * libraries for reading like podofo and custom script for passing pdf context (text) to context commands * pass pdf to jpg, and apply http://detexify.kirelabs.org/classify.html for passing to tex symbols. For me it's vital to pass mathematical symbols like (\int) to tex symbol and not like utf-8 symbols. Thanks a lot, Xan. Note: pdf could be substitute for ps if you want ;-) PS: Please CCme ___________________________________________________________________________________ If your question is of interest to others as well, please add an entry to the Wiki! maillist : ntg-context@ntg.nl / http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context webpage : http://www.pragma-ade.nl / http://tex.aanhet.net archive : http://foundry.supelec.fr/projects/contextrev/ wiki : http://contextgarden.net ___________________________________________________________________________________ ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 4+ messages in thread

I will check it, but I suspect that if I have $$\int_{i=1}^{\infty} x^2$$ in one latex document and it generates pdf, then mupdf -t of that document does not generate that formula, else "S i=1 x²".
