I'm pretty sure it was not the intention of the AMS LaTeX programmers for an {align} environment to be used in this way. Logically, you have a single paragraph, with several sentences, containing two separate pieces of aligned mathematics. This is the kind of thing that LaTeX2HTML expects, and it would do a good job if your manuscript was marked-up in that way. If you stick to simple, clear, logical markup then LaTeX2HTML will do a good job. If you obscure your markup, then some aspects of the translation may fail, or you may get HTML coding that is not the most desirable for the information that you are wishing to present. So my first piece of advice is to *simplify* your coding. e.g. Do *not* try to be cute by having some environments align with others --- that's a layout issue, rather that a logical structure issue; besides, the journal editor may not like that effect, which may not even work properly anyway (e.g. in multiple-columns). Secondly, if you are going to ignore the above advice, (as you are entitled to do), then at least follow very closely to printed examples that create the effects you desire... > > The last "=&1-\frac{\hat v}{(\pi/4)^2}" part is not aligned on the > '=' as the other sections of the are. ... by including \\ to end the alignment row before the \intertext command. (You do this in the first instance, but not the second.) This should give a result like what you can see at: http://www-texdev.ics.mq.edu.au/MARTIN/aligntest/ In LaTeX, the spacing is unaffected: http://www-texdev.ics.mq.edu.au/MARTIN/aligntest.pdf (In this PDF you can see also many other subtle differences from your coding, which contribute to making the complicated mathematical expressions easier to read and understand. For the source that I used, get aligntest.tex in the same directory.) > $HTML_VERSION = '3.2,math'; > > in the l2hinit file. > > This latex file renders properly under Miktex. LaTeX (via MikTeX) is building up an image of a page for itself. LaTeX2HTML is trying to encode the structure of your information to present in a logical way to (many different) web-browsers, so that they can build their own idea of how the page should appear. That is a quite different problem, which in some senses is more difficult. The hints as to the logical structure must come from the markup commands that you use in the LaTeX source of your document. If you use convoluted LaTeX coding constructions, then you are less likely to get the result that you think you want. > > Thank you.
