56 | This document describes a utility for converting \popref{\LaTeX}{latexgloss}\ files into | |
57 | several other formats. | |
58 | ||
59 | Only a subset of \LaTeX\ can be processed by this utility, especially | |
60 | since the target document language will never perfectly match \LaTeX. | |
61 | Whether the quality of the results is good enough will depend upon the | |
62 | application and your own expectations. {\it This caveat is worth emphasizing}, because | |
63 | many people assume that any old \LaTeX\ document will go through without modification: it might, | |
64 | but the chances are you'll need to modify it a bit for Tex2RTF. Tex2RTF was written with | |
65 | portable document maintenance and generation in mind, with less emphasis on accepting all \LaTeX\ syntax. | |
66 | You have been warned! | |
67 | ||
68 | Tex2RTF is heavily biased towards making on-line, hypertext versions of | |
69 | \rtfsp\LaTeX\ documents, but the \popref{RTF}{rtf} converter can be used to generate linear, | |
70 | paper-based documents too. | |
71 | ||
72 | The latest version of Tex2RTF, plus source code, can be accessedfrom: | |

77 | \end{verbatim} | |
78 | ||
79 | It is available in Sun Open Look, Motif, Windows 3.1, Windows 95/NT, and | |
80 | non-GUI UNIX versions. | |
81 | ||
82 | Tex2RTF was developed using the free Open Look, Motif and Windows 3.1 | |
83 | C++ class library \popref{wxWindows}{wxwindows}. | |

87 | Windows HTML help, and wxWindows 2 wxHTML help, are now catered for using | |
88 | the htmlWorkshopFiles setting. | |
89 | ||
90 | Tex2RTF is very rarely updated these days: it would be nice to | |
91 | rewrite the parser (and indeed the rest of it) at some point, | |
92 | to improve error reporting, space handling and ability to | |
93 | handle more advanced Tex/Latex commands. | |
94 | ||
95 | \section{Acknowledgements}\index{acknowledgements}% | |
96 | ||
97 | Thanks are due to the many people in AIAI and on the Internet at large | |
98 | who have pointed out bugs or shortcomings in Tex2RTF. Michel Lavaud has been | |
99 | a great help in giving advice for improvements to the manual. | |
