Org to Typst Converter
Processing entirely on your device — large files may take a moment.
Org mode is the Emacs ecosystem's plain-text format for notes, TODO lists, authoring and literate programming — asterisk headings, TODO keywords, #+begin_src blocks. Everything lives in one future-proof text file. Convert Markdown/Word content into Typst to try the new typesetting toolchain, or bring Typst documents into Word/EPUB pipelines.
iLoveConverter processes everything locally on your computer, which makes it private and fast: no upload wait, no server storage, no limits. Add as many files as you like — batch conversion is built in.

About the Org format
Org mode is the Emacs universe's answer to "what if everything was plain text": one .org file holds your outlines, TODO states with agendas, deadlines, tables and even runnable code blocks. Twenty years of personal knowledge management workflows are built on its asterisk-and-keyword syntax.
Its reach outside Emacs used to be the pain — now a converter bridges it. Markdown collaborators get .md, managers get .docx, readers get .epub, and LaTeX journals get .tex, all with the outline hierarchy intact. Bringing Markdown back into Org is equally one click.
+Strengths
- ✓Outlines, TODO and scheduling in one text file
- ✓Future-proof: readable in any editor, forever
- ✓Babel code blocks make documents executable
!Limitations
- −Full features require Emacs itself
- −Unfamiliar syntax for mainstream collaborators
- −No native mobile editing story
About the Typst format
Typst is the youngest serious typesetting system: LaTeX-grade output quality with markup as approachable as Markdown, and a compiler fast enough to run in a browser tab. Sets math with $x^2$ syntax, styles with small scripts, and has been adopted rapidly for theses, papers and documentation.
The ecosystem is young, so Typst files often need to leave for Word or EPUB pipelines — and Markdown content often needs to arrive. Conversion in both directions keeps Typst documents interoperable while the toolchain matures.
+Strengths
- ✓LaTeX-quality typesetting, Markdown-level syntax
- ✓Instant compilation with live preview
- ✓Modern scripting for styles and automation
!Limitations
- −Young ecosystem, fewer packages than LaTeX
- −Journals mostly still require LaTeX
- −Spec still evolving between releases
