# Arxiv2Kindle
Arxiv2Kindle is a simple script written in python that converts LaTeX source downloaded from Arxiv and recompiles it to better fit a reading device (such as a Kindle).
## Features
- Arxiv2Kindle can render images, diagrams, tables and formulae.
- It also converts 2-column formats into a single column for ease of reading.
- Arxiv2Kindle can mail the converted pdf file to your kindle (if you have a wifi-enabled Kindle).
**Note:**
- Arxiv2Kindle does not work on papers without the source.
- The fixed transformations applied on the source may not lead to a desired result in a few cases. Still, on most cases the results are readable.
## Useage
Install the dependencies using `pip install -r requirements.txt`, preferrably inside a virtual environment.
Arxiv2Kindle can be used via a CLI:
```
Usage: arxiv2kindle.py [OPTIONS]
Options:
-u, --arxiv_url TEXT Arxiv URL
-w, --width INTEGER Width
-h, --height INTEGER Height
-m, --margin FLOAT Margin
-l, --is_landscape Flag: Is output landscape
-g, --gmail TEXT Your Gmail ID
-k, --kindle_mail TEXT Your Kindle ID
--help
```
## Converted Samples
**Note:** All photoes have been captured on a Kindle Paperwhite 10th Generation.
