Hello everyone,
I'm still playing with LyX and tex4ht to convert my documents (this
time it is lecture notes) to html. I run into a few problems I would
like to discuss here (if you're interested!)
1) the process fails in generating images if such images are inserted
in LyX from a folder which is one level up with respect to the LyX
file. To be clearer, I would use
\includegraphics{../image_folder/image_name.png}
(once for all, I'm using source PNG images if it is important)
I noticed that in the output LaTeX (plain) file, dots are converted in
lyxdot, which I unsuccessfully searched for on the web. I tried to
change this lyxdot into normal dots "." in the tex file but nothing
changed.
2) this is a issue more related to tex4ht I guess. If I include
graphics in LyX and resize them
\includegraphics[scale=0.75]{myfig.png}
the image output in the html document look bad, though the
intermediate EPS are fine.
3) I get a lot of error messages during latex and htlatex runs. one of
those (latex) says no bb file has been found for the images.
4) there's no hyper link to figures in the html file (this is *annoying*)
5) some questions about tex4ht options (found in the notes in the
htlatex log file): if I do:
htlatex foo "html,2,sec-filename"
(to name output files according to section name) there's no
bibliography in the output.
6) another tex4ht option: "imgdir:.../" does not work for me. I tried
replacing the "..." with both an existing and a non-existing folder
name, but nothing, the generated images are placed in the same folder
as the html output (which is not exactly professional, but still
works)
I'm using LyX 1.4.3 with freshly updated MiKTeX system on Windows XP.
Kind regards,
Diego
