Load from OneNote

To load the content from OneNote and optionally start the conversion process, you must perform the following steps:

  1. Sign in to your M365 account to give OneLatex permission to read your OneNote notebooks and to read and save files to OneDrive.

  2. Select your OneNote notebook that contains the section you want to convert to LaTeX.

  3. Select the section you want to convert to LaTeX.

  4. Start the conversion process. Make sure that you have set the desired options beforehand:

    Task 1: Loads the pages from OneNote via the API. You need to have an internet connection to perform this task. This task is mandatory and cannot be disabled.

    Task 2: Saves the content to OneDrive in a proprietary format. This task is mandatory and cannot be disabled.

    Task 3: If enabled, OneLatex will proceed directly with the conversion after task 2 is completed. Alternatively you can disable the task and convert one or more temporary files into one LaTeX-file (*.tex) on the 'Convert to LaTeX' navigation page.

    Task 4: If enabled, OneLatex saves the *.tex file to OneDrive to complete the process. Alternatively you can disable the task and download the *.tex file on the 'Download Files' navigation page.

Convert to LaTeX

The temporary files listed in the “Convert to LaTeX” navigation page were created the moment you loaded them from OneNote. This means that they remain unchanged, even when you add or change content in OneNote.
