2+++++ Announcing Tex2RTF +++++
3+++++ A Free LaTeX to RTF, Windows Help RTF, HTML & wxHelp converter +++++
4
5Purpose
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
14Input
15=====
16
17A LaTeX subset with some additional hypertext macros; no maths,
18minimal table support.
19
20Caveat: Please do not expect to convert arbitrary LaTex files without
21editing: this is not the primary intention of Tex2RTF. Success converting
22existing LaTeX depends on your expectations and the style in which
23the LaTeX was written. Tex2RTF does not accept pure TeX (non-LaTeX)
24documents.
25
26Output
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
37Installation

41manual itself serves as an example input file, in the docs subdirectory

43own documents. See the online manual for further details.
