I am trying to use latex2html, but something seems to go wrong at
last step of the image conversion.
I made a small test file as suggested in the troubleshooting section
of the documentation on the web. I called the file mytest.tex,
and this is the file:
---------- file below ---------
% mytest.tex
\documentclass{article}
\begin{document}
Some text followed by \fbox{some more text in a box}.
\end{document}
---- file above -------
The documentation had "documentstyle" not "documentclass",
so I changed it so that there wouldn't be extraneous error
messages. (Should the documentation suggest "documentclass"?)
The full output when I run latex2html is given at the end of this message.
I also tried the "do it manually" as suggested in the troubleshooting
section. Is it possible that the suggestions there are outdated?
It talks about Ghostscript version 3 vs Ghostscript version 2.x,
and the one on my computer is version 5. The commands I tried
to use seemed to not exist. The complete run at the end of this message.
Also, I checked images.tex in the created directory. It looked fine,
latex ran on it with no problem, and the result looked like
I expected.
Also, I looked in /tmp and there weren't any files or directories
with names similar to what latex2html claimed it was creating.
Thank for any help or pointers you can give me.
