Remark: I think you can also save as SVG format from Latexit which might be better, but you need something extra called PDF2SVG which I'm not sure how to install. Then from Inkscape select File>Import, select the PDF file, hit open and you're presented with this option boxįor some reason it doesn't seem to work unless you tick "Clip to media box" and "Import via Poppler". I use the application Latexit to generate the Latex image. It's not perfect but it's a quick and easy enough workflow for me. I have a solution that I hope future viewers will find useful. On one of my machines, this works when opening inkscape from app launcher, but on the other one this only works when you open the app from terminal by typing /Applications/Inkscape.app/Contents/Resources/bin/inkscape and pressing enter. This worked for me on two different 15" MacPro Retina, mid 2015, El Capitan.ġ. Now at the end of this file, right above the last line exec "$CWD/bin/inkscape" " " add the paths that you extracted from step 1 and 2.įor example I should add the line: PATH=$PATH:/Library/TeX/texbin:/opt/local/binĪfter all these steps, you should be able to open 1 inkscape and type latex formulas by going to Extension->Render->LaTex. With your desired editor, open (with sudo) the following file: /Applications/Inkscape.app/Contents/Resources/script.Now similarly find the PATH for pstoedit. I used macports here to to install this, and it worked for me.

However, I tried installing it from a tar ball and it didn't work (probably cause I didn't have all the dependencies).
