HTML2LATEX(1) General Commands Manual HTML2LATEX(1) NAME html2latex -- convert HTML markup to LaTeX markup SYNOPSIS html2latex [opt] [file ...] DESCRIPTION For each file argument, html2latex converts the text as HTML markup to La- TeX markup. If no files are specified, a usage message is given. Input will be taken from standard input for files named -. Output will to a sim- ilarly named file with a `.tex' extension ( html2latex recognises `.html' extensions). Options modify the action of html2latex. The options are: -n Number sections. -p Place page breaks after the title page (if present) and the ta- ble of contents (if present). -c Generate a table of contents. -s Create no files -- LaTeX is output to stdout. -t Title Generate a title page, with the title Title. -a Author Generate a title page, with the author Author. -h Header Place the text Header after `\begin{document}'. -f Footer Place the text Footer before `\end{document}'. -o Options Specify the options to `\documentstyle'. EXAMPLES An example of use is html2latex -n - < file.html | less This converts file.html to LaTeX and pages through the output. The sec- tions (corresponding to heading tags in the HTML source) will be numbered. Another example is html2latex -t 'Introduction to HTML' -a gnat \ -p -c -o '[bookman]{article}' html-intro This takes input from the file html-intro, writing to html-intro.tex, and adds a title page (with title Introduction to HTML and author gnat) and ta- ble of contents with page-breaks after both. The sections of the document are not numbered. The LaTeX source includes the line `\documentstyle[bookman]{article}'. SEE ALSO latex(1). BUGS Current the only HTML tags supported are: TITLE, H1, H2, H3, H4, H5, H6, UL, OL, DL, DT, DD, LI, B, I, U, EM, STRONG, CODE, SAMP, KBD, VAR, DFN, CITE, LISTING. The only recognised SGML escapes are `&.amp', `&.lt', `&.gt'. ADDRESS tags are handled badly. The COMPACT attribute to a DL tag is not recognised. MENU and DIR styles are not handled well. TITLE text are ignored. Currently PRE tags are not handled at all. The entire file is read into memory. For long HTML documents on machines with little memory, this may cause problems. CREDITS Nathan Torkington adapted the HTML parser from NCSA's Xmosaic package (file://ncsa.uiuc.edu/Web/xmosaic) and wrote the conversion code. The HTML parser code is subject to the NCSA restrictions. The conversion code is subject to the VUW restrictions. Enquiries should be sent via e-mail to `Nathan.Torkington@vuw.ac.nz'.
