  Encode Unicode characters to LaTeX commands. Use when converting text with special characters (é, ü, ñ, etc.) to LaTeX format for use in .tex files, BibTeX entries, or LaTeX documents.

LaTeX Unicode Encoder

Convert Unicode characters to LaTeX command syntax for use in LaTeX documents.

Usage

bash
npx tsx scripts/encode.ts [options] <text-or-file>

Options

  • •--file - Read input from file instead of command line argument
  • •--output <file> - Write output to file
  • •--format <type> - Output format: braced (default) or compact

Examples

Encode text with accents

bash
npx tsx scripts/encode.ts "café naïve"
# Output: caf\'{e} na\"{i}ve

Encode from file

bash
npx tsx scripts/encode.ts --file input.txt --output output.tex

Encode for BibTeX

bash
npx tsx scripts/encode.ts --format braced "Müller"
# Output: M\"{u}ller

Supported Characters

  • •Accented characters: é, è, ê, ë, ñ, ü, etc.
  • •Ligatures: æ, œ, ß
  • •Special characters: &, %, $, #, _
  • •Greek letters: α, β, γ, δ, etc.
  • •Dashes: – (en-dash), — (em-dash)
  • •Quotes: ", ", ', '

Technical Details

The encoder converts Unicode characters to LaTeX commands using a comprehensive mapping table:

  • •Accented vowels: é → \'{e}, ü → \"{u}
  • •Special characters: & → \&, % → \%
  • •Ligatures: æ → \ae, ß → \ss

Regular spaces are NOT escaped. Only special LaTeX characters and Unicode characters without ASCII equivalents are encoded.
