2 | +++++ Announcing Tex2RTF +++++ | |
3 | +++++ A Free LaTeX to RTF, Windows Help RTF, HTML & wxHelp 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 | * wxHelp (the wxWindows 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 | ||
