Getting Started

git clone https://github.com/projektjoe/arxiv2kindle
cd arxiv2kindle
pip3 install -r requirements.txt
python3 main.py https://arxiv.org/abs/1706.03762

Features

  1. Works on any device that supports KoReader.
  2. Parses title and author properly.
  3. Handles references.
  4. Handles SVGs.
  5. Handles Math (LaTex) equations.

Limitations

  1. Does not work on Kindle devices yet, since the kindle software does not support parsing of advanced objects (such as LateX equations)
  2. Performs conversion based on ar5iv (LateXML) and therefore new papers wont work (needs a week or two for the paper to be processed)
  3. Tables are sometimes not very well formatted.
