Math symbols are not converted

[ahenkes1]

Using the standard settings of p2r, math symbols are not displayed correctly, e.g.

p2r -n http://alexkritchevsky.com/2020/10/15/ea-operations.html

What am I missing?

Hi @ahenkes1,

Math symbols are typically rendered using Javascript after the page loads. With p2r the raw html is downloaded, and readability/readabilipy is used to extract the "main" content. There is no support for running the Javascript that is called on page load, since p2r isn't emulating a browser fully.

The best solution is probably to use the browser to print the page to PDF, and then send that to the reMarkable using p2r. If you're on Mac, I think you can do this in one go using the Printing to p2r guide.

Hope this helps!
