Package: latex2html
Version: 2002-2-1-20050114-4
Severity: wishlist
Hi,
latex creates typographic quotation marks (“”) from the ``'' input. It
would be nice if latex2html would do the same if CHARSET=UTF-8 is set. I
think that even using "" would be better than ``'' in the html code. It
should also create a header saying that the html file is utf-8 encoded.
Thanks,
Wolfi

I'm closing this bug now.

Hi,

What would be the right way to go here?
$USE_CURLY_QUOTES = 1;
set this in an initialization file.
Also set the following
$USE_UTF=1;
OR execute the job with options such as:
latex2html -split 0 -html_version 4.0,latin1,unicode,utf8 myfile.tex
4.0 = satisfy HTML 4.0 recommendations (4.1 might work for HTML
4.01)
latin1 = input encoding
unicode = use unicode code-points in the output
utf8 = use byte-sequences, rather than entity numbers (or names)
whenever appropriate.
The HTML headers should now include:
<META HTTP-EQUIV="Content-Type" CONTENT="text/html; charset=utf-8">
Thanks,
You're welcome.
No bugs here.
Ross
