<!--l. 1133--><p class="noindent">TeX4ht is a highly configurable TeX-based authoring system for producing hypertext. It interacts with TeX-based
applications through style files and postprocessors, leaving the processing of the source files to the native TeX
compiler. Consequently, TeX4ht can handle the features of TeX-based systems in general, and of the LaTeX and
AMS style files in particular.
</p><!--l. 1140--><p class="indent"> The examples of this document relate mainly to configurations tailored for HTML transitional 4.0, XHTML,
HTML 3.2, HTML for Microsoft Word, MathML, DocBook, TEI, and CSS. The document itself is available for
downloading in zipped format (<a

name="QQ1-1-2"></a>Using the System</h2>
<!--l. 1159--><p class="noindent">Typical LaTeX source files can be compiled into standard HTML and XML formats in a manner similar to the way
they are compiled into print formats, namely, through variations of the command <a
name="index1-2001"></a>‘<span
class="cmtt-10">htlatex </span><span
class="cmti-10">filename </span><span
class="cmtt-10">"</span><span

class="cmtt-10">"</span>
<span

class="cmti-10">option2</span><span
class="cmtt-10">" "</span><span
class="cmti-10">options3</span><span
class="cmtt-10">"</span>’. For instance,
</p><pre class="Verbatim"><span
class="cmtt-10">htlatex</span> <span
class="cmtt-10">foo</span>
<span
class="cmtt-10">htlatex</span> <span

<h2 class="ChapterHead"><a
name="QQ1-1-28"></a>Installation</h2>
<!--l. 4333--><p class="noindent">To be installed, the system needs a port made up of native utilities of TeX4ht and of non-native utilities (see
<a
href="mn29.html" name="mn29.html" >overview</a>). The <a
href="http://www.tug.org/tex-live.html" >TeX Live</a> and <a
href="http://4tex.ntg.nl/" >4allTeX</a> CD-ROM distributions, the <a
href="ftp://ftp.suse.com/" >SuSE</a> package management (<a
href="http://www.rpm.org/" >RPM</a>) directory, and the
<a
href="ftp://ftp.debian.org/" >Debian Linux</a>, <a
href="http://www.ese-metz.fr/~popineau/fptex/wwwfptex.html" >fpTeX</a> , and <a
href="ftp://ftp.simtel.net/pub/simtelnet/gnu/djgpp/v2apps/tex/" >simtelnet</a> distributions, include installed versions of these utilities. Hence, users having
no need for the latest version of TeX4ht might be well served by getting the system from the above
distributions.
</p><!--l. 4514--><p class="indent"> The current document gives instructions on how to establish ports for <a
href="mn30.html" name="mn30.html" >Unix</a> and <a
href="mn34.html" name="mn34.html" >MS Windows</a>. Alternative ports for these and other platforms can be tailored in a <a
href="mn38.html" name="mn38.html" >similar manner</a>.
</p><!--l. 6469--><p class="indent"> Philip A. Viton discusses in details issues of installing TeX4ht under <a
href="http://www.arch.ohio-state.edu/crp/faculty/pviton/support/tex4ht.html" >MikTeX</a> and <a
href="http://www.arch.ohio-state.edu/crp/faculty/pviton/support/swpht.html" >Scientific Word/WorkPlace</a>,
but many of the topics apply also to other platforms. The <a
href="http://www.cis.ohio-state.edu/~gurari/dosports/readme.html" >port</a> Gertjan Klein proposed for an older version of
TeX4ht suggests alternative ways to conduct the translation of pictures into gif’s. Steven Zeil offers <a
href="http://www.cs.odu.edu/~zeil/tex4ht/tex4ht_discussion.html" target="_blank" >improvements</a>
for the above settings.

TeX4ht.
