  • Customize style and layout (anything Typst is capable of).
  • Change your Typst/LaTeX preamble, and use any package from the Typst Universe.
  • Export as SVG, PDF, PNG, JPEG, and WebP.
  • Directly paste vector output into LibreOffice, OnlyOffice, or any program that support pasting SVGs.
  • Directly paste vector output into Google Slides (experimental).
  • Recover formulae from Platen-made image files by pasting them back into Platen.
  • Recover formulae from Platen-made SVG objects in LibreOffice, OnlyOffice, and Google Slides by pasting them back in (experimental).
