[Tex/LaTex] Can we convert DVI or PostScript into TeX

conversiondvisource

Basically that is the question – if we have a DVI file can we get on the base on it the original TeX file?

Best Answer

The simple answer is no. If you have a dvi and have lost the TeX there are tools such as dvi2tty which will extract the text and some of the paragraph structure, but in general you will have to add the markup back by hand.
