0.7.4
Installation
latexml-oxide ships as a single self-contained executable. It also calls a few external tools when they are on your PATH:
- a TeX distribution (TeX Live, MacTeX, or MiKTeX) — for the packages, classes, and fonts your documents load.
- graphics tools (ImageMagick, Ghostscript, MuPDF, Poppler, dvipng, dvisvgm) — to convert figures.
Per-platform install instructions are in the README Installation guide.
Download the asset for your platform (each has a matching .sha256 to verify file integrity):

Changelog
[0.7.4] (Windows target; third-party license notices; crates.io)
- Installable from crates.io —
cargo install latexmlbuilds the CLI from
source, andlatexmlis usable as a library via the batteries-included
latexml::api(convert_to_xml/convert_to_html). The forked dependencies
are published alongside it (marpa-asf,libmarpa-asf-sys,pericortex).
Caveat: a from-source install has no precompiled kernel dumps (generated at
release time, too large for a crate), so it rebuilds kernel state at every
startup. One-time fix — the "build the formats once" step TeX does with
fmtutil:cd ~/.cargo && latexml_oxide --init=plain.tex && latexml_oxide --init=latex.ltx. See the README. - New target: Windows (
x86_64-pc-windows-msvc) — a single fully-static
latexml_oxide.exe(no VC++ redistributable), shipped as a.zip. - Third-party notices now complete and identical in every download.
Attributed the third-party material a manifest-level audit cannot see, because
the manifest describes the wrapper rather than what ships: libmarpa (MIT,
with LGPL-3.0/LGPL-2.1 parts), mimalloc (MIT, Microsoft — its crate's own
LICENSE names a different holder), libkpathsea (LGPL-2.1, statically linked
into every released binary), the W3C/Mozilla SVG schema, rustdoc's Ayu
palette, and unidecode's table (generated from Sean M. Burke's
Text::Unidecode) — and ship the verbatim copyleft texts the static LGPL links
oblige, plus the exact source commits to relink from. Previously only the
x86_64-Linux tarball carried the full file; the.debs carried sections 1–4,
and the Windows download and container images carried nothing at all.
latexml-oxide's own source remains CC0-1.0; seeTHIRD-PARTY-NOTICES
anddocs/release/LICENSE_INVENTORY.md. - Three
--helpoptions are now functional (--inputencoding,
--sourcedirectory,--sitedirectory). All three were declared for Perl
CLI parity but silently ignored — parsed, then dropped. Now:
--inputencodingseeds the Mouth's byte decoder (PerlPERL_INPUT_ENCODING,
Core.pm L60-61);--sourcedirectoryand--sitedirectoryfeed the
post-processor's resource resolution and site-relative resource URLs (Perl
sourceDirectory/siteDirectory, LaTeXML.pm L429-430). A new source-scan
test (98_cli_options_consumed) fails the build if any option shown in
--helpis parsed but never consumed, closing theDebug-masks-dead_code
blind spot that let these three slip through.
