• Choose to export in LaTeX format (Markdown and HTML are also supported).

Step 2: Quickly translate using deepseek API

• In the gpt_academic virtual terminal, upload the LaTeX file.
• Use the deepseek API for translation; translating over 400 pages costs just $1.

Step 3: Generate Chinese PDF

• Open the translated file in a LaTeX editor (e.g., Overleaf).
• After verifying everything is correct, generate the PDF.
