marker VS easy-markdown-editor

You may want to try https://github.com/VikParuchuri/surya (I'm the author). I've only benchmarked against tesseract, but it outperforms it by a lot (benchmarks in repo). Happy to discuss.

You could also try https://github.com/VikParuchuri/marker for general PDF parsing (I'm also the author) - it seems like you're more focused on tables.

Hi HN - I made texify to convert equations to markdown/LaTeX for my project marker [1] then realized it could be generally useful.

Texify converts equations and surrounding text to Markdown, with embedded LaTeX (MathJax compatible).

You can either use a GUI to select equations (inline or block) from PDFs and images to convert, or use the CLI to batch convert images. It works on CPU, GPU, or MPS (Mac).

The closest open source comparisons are pix2tex and nougat - marker is more accurate than both of them for this task. However, nougat is more for entire pages, and pix2tex is more for block equations (not inline equations and text).

I trained texify for 2 days on 4x A6000 GPUs - I was pleasantly surprised how far I could get with limited GPU resources by reframing the problem to use small parameter counts/images.

Texify is licensed for commercial use, with the weights under CC-BY-SA 4.0. Fine them here - https://huggingface.co/vikp/texify .

See the texify repo for more details, benchmarks, how to install, etc.

Both are tools to convert pdfs into Latex or Markup with latex formulas. Maybe that helps

Otherwise I've been using EasyMDE, seems to be going OK.

FWIW, I'm using EasyMDE as the markdown editor in Django Admin for my site.

I'm using the Easy Markdown Editor by ionaru.

Hi u/tiimedilation, this appears to be intentional as the underlying displays which formatting style was applied to the text in real time. The Markdown Pro editor is derived from the Easy Markdown Editor. If you'd like to submit a request for this feature, please create a thread in the EasyMDE repo's issues tab.

Questions and answers are written in Markdown. For this I have a SFC that imports and wraps EasyMDE:

To make sure things did not diverge, I needed to pick a specification and stick with it. Thankfully, EasyMDE already followed Commonmark, it was Blackfriday that was a little buggy.
