ChatGPT formulas to Word — without the broken LaTeX
Copied a ChatGPT answer full of equations and Word shows \frac{a}{b} instead of a fraction? Paste it here: the math is typeset for PDF, and Word gets a clean document with every formula preserved.
Why ChatGPT formulas break when you paste into Word
ChatGPT writes mathematics as LaTeX. When you copy an answer, the formulas travel as raw source wrapped in \( … \) and \[ … \], and Word pastes exactly that: backslashes, braces and all. Word's equation editor never sees it, so you get a line of code instead of a fraction.
Screenshots avoid the mess but are not searchable, not editable and blur when printed. The fix is to render the LaTeX first and then hand Word (or PDF) a properly typeset document.
Fix it in 30 seconds
- Copy the answer — use ChatGPT's copy button so the Markdown and LaTeX come through intact.
- Paste it here — the paste box strips copy-button labels and role lines automatically and recognises \( … \) and \[ … \] delimiters.
- Export — click To PDF for typeset formulas, or To Word (DOCX) for an editable document.
What you get, format by format
- PDF, HTML, image and EPUB: every formula typeset with KaTeX — fractions, sums, matrices, Greek letters, subscripts.
- Word (DOCX): the document structure, tables, code and lists come through as real Word styles. In Word each formula becomes a sharp image that looks just like the preview, with its LaTeX source kept as the image's alt text; editable Word equations are on the roadmap.
- Tables, code blocks, headings and lists are preserved in every format.
- Nothing is stored: PDF and Word are converted in memory and discarded; the other formats never leave your browser.

Frequently asked questions
Why do ChatGPT's formulas show as \frac and \sum in Word?
Because they are LaTeX source. ChatGPT renders it in the chat window, but the clipboard carries the raw text. Rendering it here first turns it into typeset math, in PDF and in Word alike.
Do I need to change $ or \( delimiters?
No. Both $ … $ / $$ … $$ and \( … \) / \[ … \] are recognised. Dollar amounts in prose such as "$5 and $10" are left alone.
Will the equations be editable in Word?
Not as equations yet. In Word each formula is a sharp image that looks right and prints cleanly, with its LaTeX source in the image's alt text; editable equations (OMML) are on the roadmap. PDF, HTML, image and EPUB output is fully typeset too.
Is this free? Do I need an account?
Free, no account, no watermark on your documents. Files up to 1 MB; the conversion runs in your browser except PDF and Word, which are converted in memory on our server and discarded immediately.
What about ChatGPT's citation marks and "Copy code" lines?
They are stripped automatically when you paste: copy-button labels, "You said / ChatGPT said" lines, "Thought for 8s" and the 【12†source】 citation glyphs.
