Description: LaTeX to HTML translator.
LaTeX2HTML is a conversion tool that that converts documents written
in LaTeX to HTML format. In addition, it offers an easy migration
path towards authoring complex hypermedia documents using familiar
word-processing concepts.
.
LaTeX2HTML replicates the basic structure of a LaTeX document as a
set of interconnected HTML files which can be explored using
automatically generated navigation panels. The cross-references,
citations, footnotes, the table of contents and the lists of figures
and tables, are also translated into hypertext links. Formatting
information which has equivalent ``tags'' in HTML (lists, quotes,
paragraph breaks, type styles, etc.) is also converted
appropriately. The remaining heavily formatted items such as
mathematical equations, pictures or tables are converted to images
which are placed automatically at the correct positions in the final
HTML document.
.
LaTeX2HTML extends LaTeX by supporting arbitrary hypertext links and
symbolic cross-references between evolving remote documents. It also
allows the specification of conditional text and the inclusion of raw
HTML commands. These hypermedia extensions to LaTeX are available as
new commands and environments from within a LaTeX document.
.
Pstoimg, the part of latex2html that produces bitmap images from the
LaTeX source, can support both GIF and PNG format. The default is
PNG.
.
Please note that there are certain legal limitations on the use of
the GIF image format. Also, LaTeX2HTML would depend on netpbm-non-free,
which is in section non-free, if the default image style is changed to be
GIF.
