Who it is forA researcher preparing a submission in one of the named conference styles who wants to confirm the HTML view handles that template.

The problemConference templates use different styles and macros, and it is unclear whether a review layer will render them correctly before you rely on it.

The outcomeYou have rendered HTML for the chosen conference demo and a running local view showing formulas, citations, figures, tables, and sections.

What you need first

  • Python 3 installed to run pairtex.py (standard library only)
  • A local LaTeX project in a Git repository
  • A rendered HTML file of the manuscript, produced by the default make4ht renderer or an adapter
  • A coding agent of your choice to consume the feedback files

Steps

  1. Install latexmk so the build command in the README can run.
  2. Run python3 pairtex_render.py --project demo/iclr --input main.tex --output /tmp/pairtex-iclr-rendered --build-command 'latexmk -pdf -interaction=nonstopmode -halt-on-error {input}'. (inferred, check the README)
  3. Run python3 pairtex.py --project demo/iclr --html /tmp/pairtex-iclr-rendered/main.html --port 8766. (inferred, check the README)
  4. Open the printed URL and check formulas, citations, figures, and tables. (inferred) Repeat with demo/neurips/ or demo/icml/ by changing the project and output paths.

Prompt for your agent

Read the PairTeX README in this repo and render the demo/iclr project with pairtex_render.py using the build command shown there. Report the render output path and the URL from pairtex.py, and list which of formulas, citations, figures, and tables rendered without errors.

Caveat. The default renderer is make4ht and the build step depends on a working latexmk install, so a missing TeX toolchain will stop the render before PairTeX starts.
