BTW, the -b option should define the .bbl, not the .bib file. But
anyway, I have normally used it just like:
latex2rtf myfile.tex (or latex2rtf -C raw myfile.tex)
because 'man latex2rtf' says...
"The latex2rtf command converts a LaTeX file into RTF text format.
The text and much of the formatting information is translated to RTF.
-a auxfile
Used to specify a particular cross-referencing file.
When this ption is omitted, the auxfile is assumed
to be the same as inputfile with the .tex suffix
replaced by .aux.
-b bblfile
Used to specify a particular bibliography file. When this
option is omitted, the bblfile is assumed to be the same
as inputfile with the .tex suffix replaced by .bbl."
... and the files (both .tex, .aux, .bib and .bbl) are all in the same
directory. Oddly enough, as I tried it with -a, the conversion
worked :-\ - i.e. I could open the rtf-file with OOo.
The bibliography is still missing in the rtf file, but because I can
copy and paste it from the pdf-file, it is not a problem. So thanks for
your help, Charles.
Kind regards,
Kimmo
