So, I've installed it and run it on a somewhat challenging LaTeX file
with lots of things that are defined in a style file L2H has never heard of.
Overall - it did *remarkably* well. Yay.
So, now I start hacking the latex2html file to fix the places
where it doesn't quite work.
1) In figure environments, it puts the caption on top of the figure.
Wrong (for me) - captions go below the figure. So I change the
call to join so that things go in the (for me) proper order.
But L2H doesn't obey - it writes the HTML the way I want it to,
but the captions stubbornly stay on top. Now one command I never
use is <DIV> --- is this what's causing the problem? If so, what
needs to be tweaked to put the captions where ordered?
2) The first paper I'm working on has 14 figures. For 4 of them,
that there is no number associated with [text from caption].
But it doesn't mess up the order or numbering of the figures that
it is happy with. For example, Figs 1 and 2 are fine, 3 loses
its "3" (you get <STRONG>Figure:</STRONG> for output), but
Figs. 4 and 5 are fine (labeled "4" and "5"). I can't find anything
about the input to LaTeX that might cause this problem.
Sample LaTeX code that works:
%%% Figure 5
\begin{figure}[!ht]
\plotfiddle{m67.eps}{3.75in}{90}{55}{55}{210}{-30}
\caption{
Distribution of \protect\ion{Ca}{2} H and K fluxes on an arbitrary scale
for dwarf stars in the clusters M\,67\index{*M 67}
(age 4 Gyr) and NGC\,752\index{*NGC 752} (age 2 Gyr).
} \label{f-m67}
\end{figure}
Sample LaTeX code that doesn't:
%%% HD 81809 image from AO
\begin{figure}[!ht]
\plotfiddle{ao81809.eps}{2.35in}{0}{100}{100}{-305}{-310}
%\plotfiddle{ao81809_bw.eps}{2.35in}{0}{100}{100}{-305}{-310}
\caption{ADOPT image of the binary HD 81809\index{*HD 81809}
in $I$-band obtained with the adaptive
optics system of the 100-inch telescope.
The separation of the components is 0\farcs3. No post-processing
has been done to the image.
} \label{f-ao}

\end{figure}
Something that leads to enlightenment on my part will be very
much appreciated! Once I get the "feeling" for how something works,
I typically begin to sort out similar problems on my own.
While I'm at it:
3) ONE figure came out chopped... this is likely a BoundingBox
problem, right?
Cheers,
Bob
