Writer2LaTeX
Writer2LaTeX is a LaTeX/BibTeX export filter and front end for Writer
latest release: 2024-03-21 21:36:09
Description
Writer2LaTeX provides Writer export filters for LaTeX/BibTeX
This enables you to typeset your Writer documents with LaTeX, which does a better job typesetting text,in particular text with formulas. Writer2LaTeX gives you extensive control over the export of formatting. It can convert your document with as much formatting as possible preserved, or you can completely control the LaTeX code generated for each style in the source document – or even remove all formatting.
Furthermore, Writer2LaTeX makes Writer act as a frontend for LaTeX. This feature integrates Writer with your LaTeX installation, and lets you invoke LaTeX and view the resulting file directly from the provided toolbar.
Writer2LaTeX also enables you to use BibTeX as bibliographic database in Writer (this feature can be used independently of the LaTeX export).

Works well with equations and tables. It supports what i need when converting to latex.
I have no need for command line support.

In LibreOffice w2l can be used from the GUI but not from the terminal. Bug reports are difficult since one need to write a mail to some gmail account. What could we do push and support things here?
