Tex4ht: HTML Production TEX4ht: HTML Production Eitan M. Gurari Ohio State University USA [email protected] http://www.cse.ohio-state.edu/~gurari Abstract TEX4ht is a highly configurable system for producing hypertext from TEX-based sources. The system is distributed with a large set of configuration files. The most commonly used configurations are those supporting LATEX inputs and HTML, MathML, OpenOffice, and DocBook targets. The first part of the presentation will describe how the system can be used for different applications. ConTEXt is a new addition to the style files being supported by TEX4ht. The second part of the presentation will describe the work done to provide TEX4ht configurations for ConTEXt, with the objective of offering an insight into the inner working of TEX4ht. 1 From LATEX to Hypertext command output comment htlatex abc abc.html HTML, bitmap math Reports authored in LAT X may be converted into E xhlatex abc abc.html XHTML, bitmap math hypertext through the T X4ht system [1].

    LATEX for Word Processor Users version 1.0.10 Guido Gonzato, Ph.D. [email protected] January 8, 2015 Abstract Text processing with LATEX offers several advantages over word processing. How- ever, beginners may find it hard to figure out how to perform common tasks and obtain certain features. This manual attempts to ease the transition by drawing com- parisons between word processing and LATEX typesetting. The main word processor capabilities are listed, along with their equivalent LATEX commands. Many examples are provided.

    Apuntes de LATEX Capítulo 13: LATEX y HTML En este último capítulo describiremos brevemente algunos de los sistemas de conver- A sión disponibles para transformar documentos LTEX a formato HTML, centrándonos en dos posibilidades: • TtH • TEX4ht A aunque, existen muchas más (entre las que destacamos LTEX2HTML, ver www.latex2html.org); pueden encontrarse buscando en google “TEX converters HTML”, por ejemplo. 1. TtH TtH es un convertidor bastante sencillo, que, a la hora de manejar fórmulas, directa- mente trata de “traducirlas” a lenguaje HTML, con resultados en general no demasiado fieles al original. Mencionamos este convertidor dado que, por defecto, WinEdt propor- ciona una interfaz para para acceder a este programa. Sin embargo, hay que tener en cuenta que TtH no se distribuye por defecto con MiKTeX, por lo que debe instalarse para que la interfaz de WinEdt funcione. El programa puede descargarse de: http://hutchinson.belmont.ma.us/tth/ en forma de un archivo .zip, que debemos descomprimir; los archivos ejecutables deben entonces copiarse al directorio bin de la distribución de MikTeX (donde viven latex, dvips, etc... c:/texmf/miktex/bin). Asimismo, en la distribución puede encontrarse un archivo tth_manual.html con un manual del programa. 2. TEX4ht El programa TEX4ht funciona de una manera mucho más compleja, lo cual redunda en una mayor calidad del resultado final. A diferencia de TtH, éste traductor procesa A el código LTEX, sustituyendo en el documento HTML final todo tipo de código no reconocible por HTML (fórmulas, por ejemplo) por imágenes GIF ó JPG. Además, es capaz de reconocer paquetes, comandos definidos por el usuario, etc..

  • Beginner's LATEX
    Beginner’s LATEX Electronic Publishing Unit UCC Computer Centre v2.2 December 2001 BEGINNER’S LATEX SUMMARY Summary This booklet is designed to accompany a 2–day course on using the LATEX typesetting system under Linux or Microsoft Windows (but most of it applis to any LATEX system on any platform, including Apple Macs). The audience is assumed to be computer-literate and composed of technical profes- sional, academic, or administrative users. The objective is to enable the users to create their own typeset documents from scratch. The course covers the following topics: • Where to get and how to install LATEX (fpTEX from the TEX Live CD-ROM); • How to type in LATEX: using an editor to create files (WinEdt or Emacs); • Basic document structures (the Document Class Declaration and its layout options; the document environment with sections and paragraphs); • Typesetting, viewing, and printing; • The use of packages and the CTAN to adapt formatting using standard tools; • Other document structures (lists, tables, figures, images, and verbatim text); • Textual tools (footnotes, marginal notes, cross-references, indexes and glos- saries, and bibliographic work); • Typographic considerations (spacing, font installation and changes, inline markup); • Programmability (macros and modifying LATEX’s behaviour); • Compatibility with other systems (XML, Word, etc). It does not cover mathematical typesetting, complex tabular material, the design of user-written macros, or the finer points of typography or typographic design, although it does refer to the existence of these topics.
