\usepackage{academia}
From first draft to arXiv submission — LaTeX tools built for academic workflows.
\section{Pain Points}
Maintaining a local TeX installation wastes research time. Updates break packages, fonts, and custom styles at the worst moments.
Emailing .tex files back and forth causes version conflicts. Merging changes from a supervisor and co-author at the same time is painful.
Generating multiple paper variants, supplementary materials, and grant reports manually is repetitive work that should be scripted.
\section{Solutions}
Write LaTeX anywhere — no local install, no 4 GB download, no broken packages after an OS update.
Co-author with your supervisor in real-time. No more emailed .tex files or merge conflicts.
pdfLaTeX, XeLaTeX, LuaLaTeX, and latexmk — run the exact engine your journal or arXiv submission requires.
Full reference management support. BibLaTeX with Biber backend handles complex citation styles out of the box.
Automate report generation and batch-compile document variants from Python, Go, or any HTTP client.
Submit-ready output with correct engine support. FormaTeX compiles to the exact format arXiv accepts.
\section{Use Cases}
Multi-chapter documents with bibliographies require multiple compilation passes to resolve cross-references. latexmk handles this automatically — no manual re-runs.
arXiv accepts pdfLaTeX and XeLaTeX. FormaTeX compiles your document to the exact format arXiv expects, reducing submission rejections.
Use the REST API to batch-compile multiple figures and tables from a single template. Automate what used to be a manual, error-prone process.
Generate weekly lab reports via API. Feed experimental data from Python scripts directly into a LaTeX template and receive a PDF — no manual editing.
