LaTeXSnipper Office 插件

在 Word 和 PowerPoint 中插入、编辑、转换和维护 LaTeXSnipper 公式。

系统要求

组件要求
Windows 版本Windows 10 22H2 或更高版本 / Windows 11
Office 版本
  • Microsoft 365 应用(当前通道或月度企业通道)
  • Office 2024 / 2021 / 2019 零售版或批量许可版
  • Office LTSC 2024 / 2021
运行时.NET Framework 4.8;Microsoft Edge WebView2 Runtime(Windows 11 已内置;M365 会自动安装)
Office 体系仅支持 32 位和 64 位桌面版 Office;不支持网页版、移动版和 macOS 版 Office
LaTeXSnipper 桌面端需在本机运行并开启 Office 插件功能,插件通过 127.0.0.1:28765 与本机 Bridge 通信

快速开始

1. 启动桌面端

打开 LaTeXSnipper 桌面端,在设置中启用 Office 插件功能。

2. 打开编辑器

使用 Ribbon 插入按钮打开 MathLive 编辑器,输入或选择需要插入的公式。

3. 插入到文档

默认使用 OLE 公式对象插入。侧边栏只负责独立草稿和新插入;更新公式只从编辑器窗口提交。

公式编辑与渲染在插件内本地完成;截图识别需要本机 LaTeXSnipper 桌面端。

编辑器快捷键

MathLive 输入区按 Enter 新建数学行,首次换行会自动进入多行数学环境;按 Shift+Enter 插入或更新公式。Ctrl+F、Ctrl+R、Ctrl+H、Ctrl+L、Ctrl+J 分别插入分式、根号、上标、下标和上下标。空格键插入数学薄空格。Esc 不关闭编辑器,只收回 MathLive 虚拟键盘。提交期间按钮会禁用;如果 Office 正在执行加载、删除、重编号或 OCR 等命令,编辑器会提示稍后再试,不排队等待。

字体与宏包命令

设置页提供常用论文写作字体。下列字体既可作为新公式默认字体,也可在源码编辑框显式输入。

默认字体会保存为对应的 LaTeX 字体命令。插件和客户端使用同一组本地 MathJax 3.2.2 扩展;不启用会吞掉错误提示的 noerrors/noundefined,也不默认启用 \require。

Word 功能

OLE 与 OMML

默认使用 OLE 公式对象,公式显示由 MathJax SVG 转为 EMF+Dual 矢量预览。设置中可切换到 Word OMML。

加载、更新和删除

选中受管理公式后用 Ribbon 加载到编辑器修改。编辑器提交后更新原公式;侧边栏不会承担更新入口。编辑器提交、加载所选、删除、重编号、OCR 等 Office 命令互斥执行,正在处理时不会排队堆积新的提交。

侧边栏草稿

侧边栏是独立的新公式草稿区。加载公式到编辑器时会临时显示该公式属性;编辑器提交或取消后恢复原来的侧边栏草稿。

自动编号与重编号

自动编号只对未编号的行间公式生效。可组合章、节、公式三级编号并选择层级分隔符;章、节边界会递归重置后续编号,也可分别隐藏。

转换、引用与格式化

“转换”会处理当前选区内的受管理公式,在 Word OMML 与 OLE 之间原位转换,不处理相邻文字或段落;多选时分批执行并在状态窗格显示进度。“引用”创建 Word REF 交叉引用,重编号时引用域同步更新。“格式化所选”恢复默认字体、颜色和自然大小,多选时同样分批执行;“格式化全文”只恢复被手动拉伸公式的自然大小。

带编号公式布局

带编号公式会将公式居中显示,并按设置把编号放在最左或最右。加载、更新和删除以公式对象或公式所在段落为稳定入口;单独选中编号数字不会反向删除公式。

OLE 对象尺寸

新公式按光标处正文大小计算自然尺寸。更新已有 OLE 公式时保留用户在 Word 中手动拉伸出的对象倍率。

截图识别

点击后等待桌面端截图结果,再次点击可取消。

PowerPoint 功能

OLE 与 PNG 图片

默认使用 OLE 公式对象,公式显示由 MathJax SVG 转为 EMF+Dual 矢量预览。设置中可切换到 PNG 图片方式。

加载和删除

选中受管理公式后用 Ribbon 加载到同一套 MathLive 编辑器修改。编辑器提交后替换原位置公式,并保留用户在幻灯片中手动拉伸出的对象倍率。编辑器提交、加载所选、删除和 OCR 等 Office 命令互斥执行,正在处理时不会排队堆积新的提交。

侧边栏草稿

侧边栏是独立的新公式草稿区,不负责更新已有公式。

转换与格式化

“转换”会处理当前选区内的受管理公式,在 OLE 与 PNG 之间切换,不移动同页其他对象;多选时分批执行并在状态窗格显示进度。“格式化所选”恢复默认字体、颜色和自然大小,多选时同样分批执行;“格式化全文”只恢复被手动拉伸公式的自然大小。

OLE 对象尺寸

新插入的 OLE 与 PNG 使用相同的初始倍率。更新已有公式时保留用户在幻灯片中手动拉伸出的对象倍率。

截图识别

点击后等待桌面端截图结果,识别后的 LaTeX 自动填入编辑器。再次点击可取消。

边界说明

LaTeXSnipper Office Plugin

Insert, edit, convert, and maintain LaTeXSnipper formulas in Word and PowerPoint.

System Requirements

ComponentRequirement
WindowsWindows 10 22H2 or later / Windows 11
Office
  • Microsoft 365 Apps (Current or Monthly Enterprise Channel)
  • Office 2024 / 2021 / 2019 Retail or Volume License
  • Office LTSC 2024 / 2021
Runtime.NET Framework 4.8; Microsoft Edge WebView2 Runtime (built into Windows 11; auto-installed by M365)
Office Platform32-bit and 64-bit Windows desktop Office only; web, mobile, and macOS are not supported
LaTeXSnipper DesktopMust be running locally with the Office plugin feature enabled; communicates via local Bridge at 127.0.0.1:28765

Quick Start

1. Start the client

Open LaTeXSnipper and enable Office plugin in settings.

2. Open the editor

Use Ribbon insert buttons to open the MathLive editor, then type or choose the formula to insert.

3. Insert into Office

OLE formula objects are the default. The side pane owns an independent draft for new insertions; formula updates are submitted only from the editor window.

Formula editing and rendering are local to the add-in. Screenshot OCR requires the local LaTeXSnipper desktop client.

Editor Shortcuts

Press Enter in the MathLive field to start a new math row; the first line break creates a multiline math environment. Press Shift+Enter to insert or update the formula. Ctrl+F, Ctrl+R, Ctrl+H, Ctrl+L, and Ctrl+J insert a fraction, root, superscript, subscript, and combined scripts. Space inserts a mathematical thin space. Esc does not close the editor; it only retracts the MathLive virtual keyboard. Submit buttons are disabled during submission. If Office is already running load, delete, renumber, OCR, or another command, the editor reports that processing is busy instead of queueing the submit.

Fonts and Macro Commands

The settings page includes common fonts used in academic writing. These styles can be used as new-formula defaults and as explicit source commands.

Additional symbols\degree, \celsius, \textdegreegensymb / textcompSource command
Default fonts are saved as the corresponding LaTeX font commands. The add-in and desktop client use the same local MathJax 3.2.2 extension set; noerrors/noundefined are not enabled because they hide formula errors, and \require is not enabled by default.

Word Features

OLE and OMML

OLE formula objects are the default. MathJax SVG output is converted to an EMF+Dual vector preview. Word OMML remains available in settings.

Load, Update, Delete

Use the Ribbon to load a managed formula into the editor. Submitting the editor updates the original formula; the side pane is not an update entry point. Editor submit, load selected, delete, renumber, and OCR Office commands run through a single command gate; a busy command rejects new editor submits instead of queueing them.

Side Pane Draft

The side pane is an independent new-formula draft. Loading a formula into the editor temporarily shows that formula's properties; after editor accept or cancel, the original side pane draft is restored.

Auto Numbering & Renumber

Auto Number only applies to unnumbered display equations. Chapter, section, and equation levels can be combined with a configurable separator; chapter and section boundaries recursively reset later counters and can be hidden independently.

Conversion, References & Formatting

Conversion processes managed formulas in the current selection in place between Word OMML and OLE without touching adjacent text or paragraphs; multi-selection runs in batches and reports progress in the status pane. References use Word REF fields and stay synchronized when formulas are renumbered. Format Selected restores the default font, color, and natural size and also runs multi-selection in batches; Format All only restores manually resized formulas to natural size.

Numbered Formula Layout

Numbered formulas center the formula and place the number on the left or right according to settings. Loading, updating, and deleting use the formula object or its paragraph as the stable target; selecting only the number text does not delete the formula.

OLE Object Size

New formulas derive their natural size from the text at the insertion point. Updating an existing OLE formula preserves the object stretch factor manually set in Word.

Screenshot OCR

Click to wait for the next desktop screenshot; click again to cancel.

PowerPoint Features

OLE and PNG Image

OLE formula objects are the default. MathJax SVG output is converted to an EMF+Dual vector preview. PNG image insertion remains available in settings.

Load and Delete

Use the Ribbon to load a managed formula into the same MathLive editor. After editing, the new formula replaces the original at the same position and preserves the object stretch factor manually set on the slide. Editor submit, load selected, delete, and OCR Office commands run through a single command gate; a busy command rejects new editor submits instead of queueing them.

Side Pane Draft

The side pane is an independent new-formula draft and is not an update entry point.

Conversion and Formatting

Conversion processes managed formulas in the current selection between OLE and PNG without moving other slide objects; multi-selection runs in batches and reports progress in the status pane. Format Selected restores the default font, color, and natural size and also runs multi-selection in batches; Format All only restores manually resized formulas to natural size.

OLE Object Size

New OLE and PNG formulas use the same initial scale. Updating an existing formula preserves the object stretch factor manually set on the slide.

Screenshot OCR

Click to wait for the next desktop screenshot; recognized LaTeX is loaded into the editor. Click again to cancel.
