| | 2 | +++++ Announcing Tex2RTF +++++ |
| | 3 | +++++ A Free LaTeX to RTF, Windows Help RTF, and HTML converter +++++ |
| | 4 | |
| | 5 | Purpose |
| | 6 | ======= |
| | 7 | |
| | 8 | * Allows you to maintain manuals in printed and hypertext formats. |
| | 9 | |
| | 10 | * Allows conversion of existing LaTeX documents to word processor |
| | 11 | formats (usually some 'tweaking' is required to conform to |
| | 12 | Tex2RTF restrictions). |
| | 13 | |
| | 14 | Input |
| | 15 | ===== |
| | 16 | |
| | 17 | A LaTeX subset with some additional hypertext macros; no maths, |
| | 18 | minimal table support. |
| | 19 | |
| | 20 | Caveat: Please do not expect to convert arbitrary LaTex files without |
| | 21 | editing: this is not the primary intention of Tex2RTF. Success converting |
| | 22 | existing LaTeX depends on your expectations and the style in which |
| | 23 | the LaTeX was written. Tex2RTF does not accept pure TeX (non-LaTeX) |
| | 24 | documents. |
| | 25 | |
| | 26 | Output |
| | 27 | ====== |
| | 28 | |
| | 29 | * ordinary RTF |
| | 30 | |
| | 31 | * Windows Help hypertext RTF |
| | 32 | |
| | 33 | * HTML (the World Wide Web hypertext format) |
| | 34 | |
| | 35 | * wxHTML Help (the wxWidgets GUI library help file format) |
| | 36 | |
| | 37 | Installation |
| | 38 | ============ |
| | 39 | |
| | 40 | Under Windows, please run the supplied install.exe program. The Tex2RTF |
| | 41 | manual itself serves as an example input file, in the docs subdirectory |
| | 42 | with various .sty, .ini, and .gif files that you may need for your |
| | 43 | own documents. See the online manual for further details. |
| | 44 | |
| | 45 | Platforms supported |
| | 46 | =================== |
| | 47 | |
| | 48 | * Windows (all 32-bit desktop versions) |
| | 49 | |
| | 50 | * Any Unix supporting wxWidgets |
| | 51 | |
| | 52 | * Mac OS X |
| | 53 | |
| | 54 | Where to get it |
| | 55 | =============== |
| | 56 | |
| | 57 | The latest version of Tex2RTF can be accessed by anonymous ftp |
| | 58 | from: |
| | 59 | |
| | 60 | ftp://biolpc22.york.ac.uk/pub/tex2rtf |
| | 61 | |

| | 63 | |
| | 64 | http://www.wxwidgets.org/tex2rtf |

| | 66 | Tex2RTF was developed using the free, cross-platform GUI toolkit |
| | 67 | wxWidgets, at http://www.wxwidgets.org. To compile Tex2RTF |
| | 68 | for platforms for which there are no Tex2RTF binaries, |
| | 69 | you need to download an appropriate version of wxWidgets, |
| | 70 | configure and compile the library, then compile Tex2RTF |
| | 71 | in utils/tex2rtf/src. |
