How do I get the first result if I need to use quantikz in my document? Loading quantikz locally for each diagram seems painful.

    I think you mean "altering" not "alternating" in the title. Also, quantikz not quantikz2. – Sandy G Mar 21 '24 at 02:43
  • It's quantikz2 actually. – mavzolej Mar 21 '24 at 03:24
  • Not sure, what you are after. However, this approach lets you combine anything, because you avoid such conflicts, while preserving vector graphics: https://tex.stackexchange.com/a/713595/245790. – MS-SPO Mar 21 '24 at 04:21

    \usetikclibrary{quantikz2} uses xparse and etoolbox to modify TikZ. making it incompatible with any other use of TikZ, Tikzcd should't cause any problems. – John Kormylo Mar 21 '24 at 17:55

  1. To have both, separate in space (i.e. in files here).
  2. Join later.

1) create and compile individual files

Kindly recognize the different documentclass.

t-tex:

\documentclass[10pt,border=3mm,tikz]{standalone}
\usepackage{tikz-cd}

\begin{document}
\begin{tikzcd}[ampersand replacement=&]
    A \arrow[rrrr, ""] & & & & B \arrow[rd, ""] \
    & & & & & C \
    D \arrow[rrrr, ""] & & & & E \arrow[ru]
\end{tikzcd}
\end{document}

q.tex:

\documentclass[10pt,border=3mm,tikz]{standalone}
\usetikzlibrary{quantikz2}

\begin{document}
\begin{quantikz}[ampersand replacement=&]
    A \arrow[rrrr, ""] & & & & B \arrow[rd, ""] \
    & & & & & C \
    D \arrow[rrrr, ""] & & & & E \arrow[ru]
\end{quantikz}
\end{document}

2) Your main document

main.tex:

\documentclass[10pt,a4paper]{article}
\usepackage{graphicx}

\begin{document}
 \includegraphics[width=\textwidth]{t}
 \includegraphics[width=.5\textwidth]{q}
\end{document}

result
