How to enable LaTeX preview in org, but with tectonic

[osvarcha]

Hello, hello, I recently saw the documentation and the way of working with tectonic with auctex, but what I'm trying to do now is reproduce the equations or make a preview in Org-Mode just as the page here shows, there is an expert in emacs -fu that you could guide me which variables I should manipulate so that I can visualize the equations or in general enrich my texts in org format with LaTex with the help of tectonic, because by default Org expects you to have a TeX distribution installed :c

Add process name tectonic into org-preview-latex-process-alist:

  (tectonic :programs ("tectonic" "convert") 
               :description "pdf > png"
               :message "you need install the programs: tectonic and imagemagick."
               :image-input-type "pdf" 
               :image-output-type "png"
               :image-size-adjust (1.0 . 1.0) 
               :latex-compiler
                 ("tectonic -Z shell-escape-cwd=%o --outfmt pdf --outdir %o %f")
               :image-converter
               ("convert -density %D -trim -antialias %f -quality 300 %O"))

and customize org-preview-latex-default-process to tectonic.

You need to make sure both tectonic and imagemagick installed.

If you org files are in a soft linked directory you may meet the ralative path not correct issue, you can solve it via like to replace %f in latex-compiler with $(realpath --relative-to=$(pwd) %o%b.tex) , and to replace %f in image-converter with $(realpath --relative-to=$(pwd) %o%b.pdf) .

For anyone that got confused what you're supposed to do here, this is what you want.

(add-to-list 'org-preview-latex-process-alist
	     '(tectonic :programs ("tectonic" "convert") 
			:description "pdf > png"
			:message "you need install the programs: tectonic and imagemagick."
			:image-input-type "pdf" 
			:image-output-type "png"
			:image-size-adjust (1.0 . 1.0) 
			:latex-compiler
			("tectonic -Z shell-escape-cwd=%o --outfmt pdf --outdir %o %f")
			:image-converter
			("convert -density %D -trim -antialias %f -quality 300 %O")))
(setq org-preview-latex-default-process 'tectonic)

Additionally, if you get errors like I did about the pipe |'inkscape' -V not being allowed, you're probably using the svg package and you need to change its use to \usepackage[inkscapeversion=1]{svg}.

Muchas gracias me ayudo bastante tu configuración, estaba buscando la manera de obtener mis apuntes con termux, mas emacs y tectonic ahora esto es una maravilla.
