FAQ

• Can I generate transparent backgrounds instead of solid colors?

  JPEG does not support transparency, so the image always has a solid background color. If you need transparency, consider exporting via a PNG-based workflow instead of JPEG.

• Why do my fonts look different from LaTeX's default?

  The renderer uses web fonts (like Arial) via the Canvas API, not full LaTeX typesetting. The layout matches the table structure, but typography will differ from a compiled LaTeX PDF.

• How large can the generated image be?

  Canvas size is limited by your browser and device memory. Very large tables or extremely large font/padding values may hit those limits and fail to render. If that happens, try reducing font size or splitting the table.

• Is it safe to use this for sensitive data?

  Yes, as long as you trust your local device. All processing happens in your browser; no LaTeX content or images are sent to external servers.

• Can I reuse the JPEG in other tools or editors?

  Absolutely. The downloaded .jpg file is a standard image you can insert into slides, documents, design tools, or any software that accepts JPEG images.

Privacy & Security

All conversions happen locally in your browser using Canvas API. Your LaTeX data is never uploaded to any server, ensuring complete privacy and security.
