I'm having a heck of good time converting an existing latex document to

tool, but for the most part it is working fine.
Glad to hear it.
The big problem I'm having is that the symbol \& is being converted to the text "SMPamp". I'm suspecting a bug in the program, but I may well have missed something in the docs. Suggestions?
It is part of the translation process to make substitutions:
\& --> ;SPMamp;
then later to substitute
;SPMamp; --> &
This 2-step process is necessary since & is a special character, both for TeX and also for HTML.
Your description above does not mention the preceding ';' nor the trailing one. If either has been separated from the SPMamp then that would explain why the 2nd substitution does not occur.
However, to completely diagnose what is going wrong for you, I'll need to see an example that fails to work.
Please post one to this list, else send a URL for some documents where the error occurs, as well as the URL for the LaTeX source and any packages and images that it needs.
Version: This is LaTeX2HTML Version 2002-2-1 (1.71) Platform: Linux.
Hope this helps,
Ross Moore
Thanks.
