Hi Avinash.
How's itrans coming along ?
... or your new system ?

I'll take a look at this.
It can't be too difficult to fix.

You want an image ? not a <TABLE> ?
That will be one huge bitmap, but it shoud be possible,
provided your system has the memory to do it.

Set the $PAPERSIZE variable, to say 'a3' or maybe 'a2' or larger.
LaTeX2HTML translates the ISO A and B sizes to points and passes these
values to the programs that need them.

Yes. Set $PAPERSIZE='a2'; within .latex2html-init or other initialisation file.
Is this for the new translator ?
I'd like to see it when you're ready.
