docx2tex's Issues

possible error in some of the last commits

[low priority]
If I pull the docx2tex code from the repo now, the d2t script fails and I get the following errors in the .d2t.log
This does not happen if I download the release 1.1.
It is not a problem for me, but I tought I should report.

ERROR: http://transpect.github.io/../index.html:1:107:Not a pipeline or library: html
ERROR: err:XS0044:Unexpected step name: tr:load-cascaded
ERROR: It is a static error if any element in the XProc namespace or any step has element children other than those specified for it by this specification. In particular, the presence of atomic steps for which there is no visible declaration may raise this error.

Citavi→BibTeX

Citavi 6 seems to store its references as base64-encoded JSON in field codes. There has been a request to transform them into BibTeX.
We will do this if we receive at least € 960 of external funding for it. The user who requested the feature is currently considering sponsorship (that is, committing to the full amount).

Beginner's question on how to use docx2tex

Dear Sirs/Madams,
I need to convert a number of docx files to LaTeX so I have downloaded your tool on my xubuntu 19.04 laptop. Regrettably, when I try to run your code an error message is displayed:

$ ./d2t ~/Documents/Introduction.docx 
starting docx2tex
Errors encountered while running docx2tex. Please see /home/eidon/Documents/Introduction.d2t.log for details.
$ cat Introduction.d2t.log
./d2t: line 203: /home/eidon/packages/docx2tex-master/calabash/calabash.sh: No such file or directory

From this I understood that I needed to install calabash, which I did by running

$ java -jar xmlcalabash-1.1.27-99.jar

Despite this, the error is still there. Would you be so kind as to help me? Thank you very much!

Kind regards,
Eidon

hidden text not "tagged"

Desiderata

Text that has font effect "hidden" is translated as normal text, even if it does not display in a pdf generated from the docx and it does not display in the document when the "formatting symbol" button (¶) is not active.

In the following example, the word "bbb" is "hidden".
Would it be possible to have it translated into something like \@gobble{bbb}?

regression (?) between 1ebf3cf and 74c5b4d

I think that the file JINST_001P_1018.docx translates correctly in
1ebf3cf (Oct 17 change mapping of x131)
but fails in
74c5b4d (Nov 7 update mml2tex)
and following versions (but I think with different errors).

MathType Support

Any chance of adding MathType support?

question re conf.xml

How would I configure the conf.xml to produce an article instead of a book? Is there a basic conf.xml for articles?

Problems with Endnote references

I have a document where I used Endnote to manage the references. The file is the same of #3.

What happens is that the superscripted numbers in the main text corresponding to the references are all replaced by \href{}{}, which causes the resulting pdf to show nothing instead of the superscripted numbers.

align within tabular

I get ! Argument of \align* has an extra } when I run d2t -d -p test.docx.

There is a Stackexchange question related to this.

I’d probably go with the {$\begin{aligned}…\end{aligned}$} approach proposed there.

Is this the project relatex to docx2latex.com?

Hi, I am looking for the source code that generated from google doc latex document.

I wonder if this is the script used by docx2latex.com, with this script I am not getting the same result and perhaps I am missing something.

Thanks in advance,

how to obtain a tex file with utf8 chars?

I would like to obtain that in the output tex file certain chars stays in utf8 (à) and are not translated into latex macros ('a). Is this possible?

I tried to look in the <charmap> of conf.xml, but the chars that I want are not there.
I was looking at fontmaps, but, if I understand correctly, I want the opposite of what they would do.

thanks

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: javax/activation/

Hello,

After updating jvm, I can no longer use docx2tex to produce tex files from docx files with the ./d2t command. I use mac OS via terminal for conversions and currently I have the following version of java:
java version "1.8.0_211"
Java (TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_211-b12)
Java HotSpot (TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 25.211-b12, mixed mode).
I would like to know if the problem is really with the java version of my computer, if someone else has already encountered this problem and, if possible, what solution should I take to remedy the problem.

Thank you very much in advance.

Follow the log generated.

Issues with d2t.bat

The current version of the d2t.bat file doesn't work correctly it has 2 issues:

• The path to calabash is incorrect
• Exiting the script also exits the shell

translation fails

Hi have some errors translating the following file:
https://medialab.sissa.it/owncloud/index.php/s/R3Fc2PXHdlK2LEy

I think I have the latest version of docx2tex.
I get the attached log
JINST_079P_1018.d2t.log

ERROR: An empty sequence is not allowed as the third argument of replace()

I am trying to convert a .docx file that is an article with equations, figures, and even references introduced with Endnote.

Using the master (since with the last pre-release (0.3), I was getting the same reported error that was solved recently), and running:

$ docx2tex-master/d2t -o test test.docx

I am getting the following errors:
ERROR: docx2tex-master/xproc-util/load/xpl/load.xpl:0:load-error:Could not load file:/usr/people/jmdamas/docx2tex-master/conf/conf.csv (file:///usr/people/jmdamas/docx2tex-master/xproc-util/load/xpl/load.xpl) dtd-validate=false

ERROR: Pipeline failed: An empty sequence is not allowed as the third argument of replace()
ERROR: Underlying exception: An empty sequence is not allowed as the third argument of replace()

In the first ERROR, I don't understand why the file can't be loaded, since it is there.
The other errors are all related to a replace function, but I can't understand the origin.

I tried to run with an a shorter version of the .docx (just the first 5 or 6 pages, with some equations), and I didn't get any errors. I tried to remove the Endnote references only (I thought they might be a problem) and tested it, and it gave me the errors again. I could go in a trial-and-error mode, trying to identify which part of the document is causing the problem, but I don't think that's a solution.

Can you give me some tips on how to solve this?

Oh, I am running this on an Ubuntu 12.04 with JAVA 1.7.0_80.

Meanwhile, I am using an older (?) version of this software in codeplex (https://docx2tex.codeplex.com/releases/view/19618), that is working well on Windows.

conf.csv in d2t

Why is there a default value of conf.csv when the pipeline actually expects an XML file (that it then loads with tr:load)?

funny translations: \TimesNewRoman{56 41 43...

The translation of the attached file results in a lot of macros in the following form:
\TimesNewRoman{41 43...

As soon as I open the docx in word and save it, the problem disappears.

Might be related to issues/25

I am using the master branch.

In fact I don't really care about the system font. I don't if there is way to ignore this error and continue?

possible regression in commit e219cf8

Hi, it is possible that some error crept in with commit e219cf8
I have a working d2t until commit 53d293b, but with the next one I get some errors.

*.tmp folder outside the -o folder

This is a minor issue, but when I run doc2tex with the -o option, the *.tmp folder, which contains stuff like the media folder with the images to be inserted, is placed outside the -o folder, so the path for the images is wrong and they are not loaded when the .tex is compiled.

Cheers

doc2tex throws an error while running it in Windows

Following is the error I get when I run it in Windows 10 using this command
d2t.bat filename.docx

ERROR: There is a binding for the port 'conf' but the pipeline declares no such port.

space lost at end of eq. after composite char

Probably similar to issue #24

In the file below, the space after \overline{g} and \overline{n} is "lost".

(I think that docx processors should "trim" equations, so I'm not sure if this is a d2t error, but I'm reporting because the final appearance is different between docx and tex)

https://medialab.sissa.it/owncloud/index.php/s/t1f3dW0Vop7DZih

lost image and caption (probably related to east-asia chars)

Please note that in the translation of the file given below, figure 4 and its caption become (line 89 in the tex file):

There is something similar at line 330.

I tried to isolate the problematic part only, but I get a different output (below), so I'm providing the whole document, but please do not distribute it

Problems with symbols and accented characters

The reference file is the same as #3.

I am not sure of how doc2tex should be dealing with these issues, but while symbols like the alpha or beta characters are converted to $\alpha$ or $\beta$, other symbols are not being recognized. Some examples include the minus or times signs, apostrophe (for example, see «Kramers'» in the file), or tildes (which should be converted to \~{} or \textasciitilde{}).

Moreover, some accented characters, like in my name, are not being recognized, but comparing with the output from codeplex's doc2tex, I identified this problem to be the lack of \usepackage[utf8]{inputenc} in the preamble. Am I correct?

About the lone symbols, is there anything that can be done?
Also, can doc2tex recognize the differences between types of dashes (see here)?

Cheers

soft hypen tranlated into "

I've added

    < !-- soft hyphen -->
    <char character="&#xAD;" string="\-"/>

in conf.xml on l.613
and now the translation seems good

Please find a MWE here:

P.S. I've just started using docx2tex and it seems very very good. Thanks a lot :-)

Improper LaTeX output

docx2text running on

http://public.zopyx.com/lungenkarzinom-nicht-kleinzellig-nsclc.docx

generates improper LaTeX....possibly an improper DOCX structure however the converter should
perhaps not generate improper output but add some logging message to the log.

lost most newlines and formatting

In the two documents from the link below, the translation looses most (all?) newlines:

I tried a simple edit, save and translate again without success.

Formatting issues with in-text (sub|super)scripts

The reference file is the same as #3.

I am experiencing some issues with subscripts and superscripts in the reference file.

1. I think there in a lack of brackets for longer subscripted words, with k_cat being converted to \textit{k}$_cat$/ instead of \textit{k}$_{cat}$/.
2. Issues with the superscript when the following character in a minus sign, like $^−1$ (maybe related with issue #5?)
3. I am getting double-equation mark-up for C^α, like this C$^$\alpha$$. This screws things and a lot of the non-equation text following it is pulled into the equation mode.

Cheers

space lost

In the following docx file, the space between "40" and "MHz" is lost:
https://medialab.sissa.it/owncloud/index.php/s/zkxFGDvNAehVatl
I'm not sure if it is an error, but I'm reporting it because the appearance of the tex/pdf and docx file differ.

xslt-util/calstable/xpl and com.xmlcalabash conversion errors

Bug Report:
My OS: Linux Gentoo Base System release 2.24.1.12 64 bit PC desktop
Java: 1.8.0_66
Shell: bash 4.3.42 (x86_64-pc-linux-gnu)
Install: cd /home/el/bin; git clone https://github.com/transpect/docx2tex --recursive
The input docx has a few unicode shenanigans, but nothing too out of band: http://www.filedropper.com/examplefail
Run you code: cd /home/el/bin/docx2tex; ./d2t ExampleFail.docx
Failure .log File: http://www.filedropper.com/examplefaild2t

What I expected: I expected some kind of output file ExampleFail.tex output containing latex code.

Quarantining the bug, proving the bug isn't on my side:

1. Use libreoffice version 5.2.3.3 -writer to create an new empty .docx document containing the ascii text asdf.

2. Save the above file as Untitled.docx using format Microsoft Word 2007-2013 XML (.docx) format.

3. Openoffice -writer produces this Untitled.docx: http://www.filedropper.com/untitled_22

4. Run the code: cd /home/el/bin/docx2tex; ./d2t Untitled.docx

5. docx2tex works as expected, the contents of Untitled.tex render by pdflatex to a similar looking pdf:

The problem is in the table layouts.

Equation-related issues (\underset, \sum\nolimits, \substack, cases environment)

The reference file is the same as #3.

1. I use some sum-class symbols in-text and the limits are always on the right of the sigma symbol. But doc2tex is recognizing this and using the \underset{<limits>}{\sum} instead of the more common \sum\nolimits. In fact, this is also happening in the equations not in-text, but I am guessing that's because they are inside the tabular environment.
2. Limits of sums with more than one line (see equation 2 of reference file) are being transformed into an array environment. I think the best solution would be to use \substack (maybe \mathclamp could also help here)

Cheers

lost newline

In the following file, a newline is lost between "...Fast ICA Algorithm" and "FastICA disintegrates...":
https://medialab.sissa.it/owncloud/index.php/s/PXm3ktw0LFYXVti

However, please note that in the original docx, there are a couple of spaces missing in "3.1Denoisingby" (probably a typo), but when I tried to add them (to get "3.1 Denoising by") and save the file, the missing newline magically appears in the TeX translation and I can see no error.

Problem about time improvment

Hi, i have tons of docx files to transform but this project is very time-consuming. I found it generates some temporary files in the process, i guess this may be the problem. I am not good at shell, could you please offer a solution for me? many thanks.
