reStructuredText (RST) is the markup behind Sphinx and much of the Python documentation ecosystem. Compiling it to PDF lets you ship a polished, typeset copy of docs, READMEs, and technical notes without setting up a full Sphinx build. FormaTeX converts your RST to LaTeX with Pandoc and compiles it using TeX Live, preserving sections, directives, tables, and code blocks.
Paste your .rst source or upload a file. Attach any referenced images as companion files and they will be embedded in the PDF. Click Convert to PDF to compile, review the preview, and download the document.
No account, no installation — the conversion runs on demand and gives you a downloadable PDF in seconds.
Every tool on this page is powered by the FormaTeX REST API. Integrate the same capabilities into your own apps with a few lines of code.
