What it does
Latex Paper Conversion is an agent skill from sickn33/agentic-awesome-skills. This skill should be used when the user asks to convert an academic paper in LaTeX from one format (e.g., Springer, IPOL) to another format (e.g., MDPI, IEEE, Nature). It automates extraction, injection, fixing formatting, and compiling.
Its SKILL.md is about 1.1k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.
It sits in Documents & Office, covering LaTeX. It works with LaTeX. The repository describes itself as: AAS Core is the local, agent-first control plane for complete catalog discovery, agent-owned selection, stack validation, and planning, backed by 2,400+ agentic skills. Includes… The licence is MIT.

Workflow steps
4 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit b84d35a. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
Tool permissions
Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.
From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
Runs code
No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
Links to these hosts (documentation or services it may open):
overleaf.com
From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Credentials
Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
Context cost
Latex Paper Conversion loads about 1.1k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 65 tokens; SKILL.md has 536 words of instructions outside code blocks.
Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.
Safety
Auto-check passed
The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.
Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

LaTeX Paper Conversion
Overview
This skill automates the tedious and recurring process of converting an academic paper written in LaTeX from one publisher's template to another. Different journals (e.g., Springer, MDPI, IEEE) have vastly different structural requirements, document classes, margin settings, and bibliography styles. This skill streamlines these conversions by executing a structured multi-stage workflow, extracting content, mapping it to a new template, and resolving common compilation errors.
When to Use This Skill
- Use when the user requests to port an existing LaTeX paper to a new journal's format.
- Use when the user provides an existing
.texfile and a new template directory. - Use when the user mentions converting from format A (e.g., IPOL/Neural Processing) to format B (e.g., MDPI).
How It Works
Step 1: Pre-requisites & Assessment
Identify the Source LaTeX file and asking the user for the Target Template Directory. Understand the core layout mapping (single-column vs. double-column, bibliography style).
Step 2: Extraction & Injection Script Generation
Create a Python script (e.g., convert_format.py) to parse the source LaTeX file. Use Regular Expressions to extract core text blocks. Merge the new template's preamble, the extracted body, and the backmatter. Write this to a new file in an output directory.
Step 3: Systematic Fixing
Perform generic fixes on the extracted body text before writing the final file, or in subsequent calls:
- Convert math environment cases (e.g.,
\begin{theorem}to\begin{Theorem}). - Adjust aggressive float placements (e.g.,
[!t]or[h!]) to template-supported options. Avoid forcing[H]unless thefloatpackage is explicitly loaded. - Ensure
\includegraphicspaths are relative to the new.texfile location. - Convert
\begin{tabular}to\begin{tabularx}{\textwidth}or use\resizeboxif moving to a double-column layout.
Step 4: Compilation & Debugging
Run a build cycle (pdflatex -> bibtex -> pdflatex). Check the .log file using grep or rg to systematically fix any packages conflicts, undefined commands, or compilation halts.

Example 1: Converting IPOL to MDPI
``` USER: "I need to convert my paper 'SAHQR_Paper.tex' to the MDPI format located in the 'MDPI_template_ACS' folder." AGENT: Triggers latex-paper-conversion skill
- Analyzes source
.texand targettemplate.tex. - Creates Python script to extract Introduction through Conclusion.
- Injects content into MDPI template.
- Updates image paths and table float parameters
[h!]to[H]. - Compiles via pdflatex and bibtex to confirm zero errors. ```
Best Practices
- ✅ Always write a Python extraction script; DO NOT manually copy-paste thousands of lines of LaTeX.
- ✅ Always run
pdflatexand verify the.logto ensure the final output compiles. - ✅ Explicitly ask the user for the structural mapping if the source and target differ drastically (e.g., merging abstract and keywords).
- ❌ Don't assume all math packages automatically exist in the new template (e.g., add
\usepackage{amsmath}if missing).
Common Pitfalls
- Problem: Overfull hboxes in tables when moving from single to double column.
Solution: Detect
\begin{tabular}and automatically wrap in\resizebox{\columnwidth}{!}{...}or suggest a format change. - Problem: Undefined control sequence errors during compilation.
Solution: Search the
Paper.logand include the missing\usepackage{}in the converted template.

Limitations
- Use this skill only when the task clearly matches the scope described above.
- Do not treat the output as a substitute for environment-specific validation, testing, or expert review.
- Stop and ask for clarification if required inputs, permissions, safety boundaries, or success criteria are missing.
