Re: [Wikitech-l] MediaWiki to Latex Converter

Hi its on Labs now. http://mediawiki2latex.wmflabs.org/ The only problem is that only about five people a day are using it. Its good on the one hand since the server is small. On the other hand the might be some people who would like to use it but still don't find it. So if anybody got an ide

Sure, I'd love to look at your code. Hopefully we can avoid reinventing the wheel *too* many times. Is it available some where? Or a written report? --scott ___ Wikitech-l mailing list Wikitech-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman

Hi Scott, I saw you started to work on an LaTeX Export yourself. I needed more than 3 year for mine. So I want you to be aware that it might take you a long time to come up with something that really works. I also want to offer you to share all my experience with you if you decide to do it you

Re: [Wikitech-l] MediaWiki to Latex Converter

The new PDF rendering pipeline does indeed use XeLaTeX. I haven't used it to typeset non-latin scripts since a summer I spent at SIL in 1996 (and that might have been Omega, not XeLaTeX), so if you wanted to pitch in and help out I'd greatly appreciate it. To start with, short example LaTeX artic

Re: [Wikitech-l] MediaWiki to Latex Converter

To support complex scripts we need to use a tex system that can support Unicode and complex script rendering system. Xetex works very well with these scripts.I tried the MediaWiki to Latex converter with Malaya

Re: [Wikitech-l] MediaWiki to Latex Converter

The new PDF rendering pipeline includes a new wikitext to latex converter, based on the Parsoid parser. You might want to check out: https://git.wikimedia.org/summary/mediawiki%2Fextensions%2FCollection%2FOfflineContentGenerator%2Fbundler and https://git.wikimedia.org/summary/mediawiki%2Fextens

Re: [Wikitech-l] MediaWiki to Latex Converter

Hi! Well, I was thinking that maybe both formats could coexist in the same project/web, and as soon as somebody wants to export it, it would be possible to convert the wikitext into latex and export both. No idea if it would have any practical use, though. Btw, great music! :) Micru On Tue, Au

Hi Micru! What use case do you have in mind? The main use of latex in WorkingWiki is simply authoring .tex files directly... Lee Worden p.s. I meant to post the "What is WorkingWiki" video here that I put on twitter during Wikimania: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D8pwr-Uizf4 Date: Tue,

You mean the mega font? That's actually 207M uncompressed :) That should probably go to a different package (and depend on it). I don't see why it couldn't fallback to another available font if it's not available, though. I could indeed work without that font. But in this case I will create font
