Image to Typst

Transcribe notes, equations, or a table from an image into editable Typst source with a local vision model.

Image to Typst turns a screenshot or photo into source you can revise, style, and compile. It is a practical starting point for notes on a whiteboard, a photographed derivation, or a small table that needs to join a Typst document.

When it helps

Use it when the image contains content you want to edit. If the image itself is the artifact, place it in the project as a figure. For a complete selectable PDF, use PDF to Typst instead.

Transcribe the image

Open Image to Typst, or run /image-to-typst.
Drop a PNG, JPEG, or WebP image into the input area.
Choose Convert.
Review the returned Typst source.
Copy it, save transcription.typ, or create a Typst project.

The tool asks a compatible Ollama vision model on your device to preserve visible wording, equations, tables, and reading order. It is instructed not to invent missing text or silently rewrite the prose.

Review the result

Compare the source and its compiled preview with the image. Check:

equation grouping, symbols, and limits;
the order of columns or handwritten branches;
headings and list levels;
units, punctuation, and proper names.

Typst and LaTeX express some structures differently. If the final destination is a LaTeX submission, transcribe with Image to LaTeX instead of adding another conversion step.

The tool recovers visible content. It does not validate a calculation or decide what an unclear handwritten mark was meant to say.
