[Tex/LaTex] Convert from LyX/Latex to wordpress post

htmllyx

I have some documents in LyX/Latex and I want them as a wordpress post. I have tried converting latex to HTML (with latex2html) and afterwards, pasting that code in the wordpress editor but everything looks ugly. Do you know a better approach?

That's an old question, but I have stumbled upon it recently and thought that it might help pointing out to the link below

Seems like someone came-up with an automatic script in python that can translate math oriented latex to nice wordpress formatted text.

[Tex/LaTex] How to convert source code from LaTeX to LyX

Correct me if I'm wrong, but it seems you just want to get a PDF for your LaTeX document. If so, I would skip LyX altogether and just use pdflatex. As Charles pointed out, converting from LaTeX to LyX is tricky under the best circumstances. You seem to have a fairly complicated document, so I'm not surprised that this failed. What is your motivation for moving to LyX?

If you really want to convert to LyX, try removing the child documents before the conversion, and adding the \include tex afterwards from within Lyx. Can you give us more info about the actual error?

[Tex/LaTex] Convert LaTeX to HTML

Using PDF as an intermediate format when converting from LaTeX to HTML is not a very good idea. LaTeX and HTML are both mostly structural markup languages, which means you use them to describe the document structure (sections, emphasize, formulas etc.), whereas PDF is mostly about the representation of your document on the screen or paper. When converting LaTeX to PDF, you lose much of the structural information, and it cannot be successfully recovered by conversion from PDF to HTML.

It is much better to convert LaTeX directly to HTML. There are number of ways (WayBack Archive) how to do that, one I would recommend is by using htlatex. It is probably already part of your TeX distribution, is very powerful and flexible, and its use can be as simple as running

htlatex mydocument.tex

If you tell us more about your environment (which operating system do you use, what is your TeX distribution, your text editor/LaTeX IDE, how you generated the PDF file etc.) we may be able to give you more details on how to use htlatex.
