This Inkscape extension searches all text elements in a document and renders them with PdfLatex. The rendered text will appear at the same position as the original text and may contain Latex commands and math formula. Modifications of the source text will be considered when the extension is executed again.
As the rendered text is added to a new layer, the original document content is not touched and you can always wipe out all modifications from this extension by simply deleting the created layer.

Tried installing it on 2 PCs , in one its not installing properly and in the other it compiles but I don't see the compiled equations after rendering. Looking forward to the better versions in the future.
Hi all, the extension works for me. Make sure that the Encapsulate all text with ($..$) option is checked once you the dialog box appears when you click on Extensions>Render>Text with Latex (GTK3)
Hi everyone, does anyone know how to/ where to install the exe files on Windows? I tried on the /share/extension folder but it doesn't work.
Thanks!
Hello,
Thank you for providing this extension for Inkscape users!
This is just to let you know that most 3rd party Inkscape extensions, like this one, probably will not work with the upcoming new Inkscape version, the long-awaited version 1.0.
Here is the info you need to update this extension, so that it will work with 1.0 and future versions.

Thank you very much for this extension. This has helped me a lot in making svg figures for my thesis. I cannot thank you enough :)
I have installed properly but when I render the text in new layer , Rendered Layer is showing no text
Package manager -- can you tell us your plans for updating this package to Inkscape 1.0?
