path. In case you didn't know, the prefs.pm mod that takes care of this without having to put GS and netpbm in the path is: $prefs{'EXTRAPATH'} = 'F:\\gs\\gs7.04\\bin;F:\\netpbm\\bin'; ...your paths may vary according to where you installed GS and netpbm, obviously. 6. If all's OK in config.log, run test.bat. See if your errors go away. 7. Look at test output with your browser and verify the mathematical formulae display correctly. 8. Run install.bat. Consider placing the l2h\bin folder in your path, so you can later run latex2html.bat from any directory. You may also wish to keep that l2hinit file discussed earlier (for some reason it did not seem to copy over to the install directory.) It doesn't really need to go there per se, but you will probably want to keep a copy of it _somewhere_ before you remove the expanded archive files that you ran the install from (which are now safe to delete since it is already installed at the destination folder.) Copies of l2hinit can be modified and placed accordingly to facilitate different local configurations (e.g. unique to each project, person, etc.) without having to all the time modify the l2hconf.pm, which applies global settings _before_ parsing l2hinit. Here is a useful document that you may or may not have looked at: http://www.mayer.dial.pipex.com/l2h.htm Darrell Similarly, the following is the segmented texts in pstoimg.bat after running install.bat: ... # Ghostscript my $GS = 'C:\\gs\\gs8.00\\bin\\gswin32c.exe'; my $GSDEVICE = 'pnmraw'; my $GSALIASDEVICE = 'ppmraw'; ...

Run your job again, using the -debug switch. Post the output to the terminal that results. Perhaps some of the extra messages will reveal something useful. This will also retain intermediate files, such as the .ps files, and show LaTeX messages as well.

Hope this helps, Ross Moore best regards, Shujun LI Hi all, I download the latest version of latex2html from www.latex2htm.org, but I encountered strange problem when I run test.bat after running config.bat. The problem is: all images, including the ones generated to display complex equations, cannot be displayed in the html pages. The report is as follows: Converting image #2 pstoimg.bat: Error: Ghostscript returned error status 0 pstoimg.bat: Error: Couldn't find pnm output of C:\ChinaTeX\Temp\l2h1624\image002.ps Error: Cannot read 'img2.gif': No such file or directory Although it seems that I have not correctly installed Ghostscript, I really installed the latest version (Ghostscript 8.00) and set $prefs{'EXTRAPATH'} = 'C:\\gs\\gs8.00\\bin'; in prefs.pm before I ran config.bat. Hmm; I've never seen Ghostscript 8. Can you please show me what message results from the following commands: gs -v gs --help (just the first few lines, please) If I omit the problem and continue to run install.bat, the problem remains when I try to translate any .tex file to html documents. I'm guessing that the full path to Ghostscript was not found when you installed LaTeX2HTML. There should be a message about this in the configure log. This means that some variables, name $GS and starting $GS... will have empty values instead of full directory paths. You could try to find these and fix them, or wait until the installer is patched to recognise this latest version of Ghostscript.

[l2h] Math in section title
I quickly browsed the archives and found some related issues addressed, but none that I saw were quite like my problem. I have a simple equation in a section title. I am using amsmath and L2H 2002-2 (1.70). The LaTeX output is perfect, i.e. the equation is included everywhere it should be (TOC, section heading, etc.) and scales correctly. As you know, the main html page produced by LaTeX2HTML (index.html) contains a copy of the TOC, even if there is no \tableofcontents command in the LaTeX source. In this TOC copy the equation displays fine, but the real TOC (i.e. the separate html page accessed from the contents navigation button when a \tableofcontents is included) does not contain the equation. The html source for this page is completely missing the img tag for the equation. I guess I could copy and paste the tag from index.html, but I thought I would ask if anyone knew of a fix since that seems like a very inefficient workaround, especially if I wish to include math in many more section titles. There is a separate issue of getting the image to scale correctly in the heading of the actual html file for that particular section. I've tried \protect to no avail. Any suggestions for both or either of these issues will be appreciated. -- Darrell ___ latex2html mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://tug.org/mailman/listinfo/latex2html
[l2h] Re: GS returned error status 1
Just an update, this problem goes away if L2H and the .tex source files both reside on the NT system partition. Oddly enough, if they both reside on some other partition (E: in my case) the problem continues. I just thought I would bring this to the developers' attention to see if it made any sense to you. This workaround will suffice, but it would be nice if I could keep all my data segregated from the system partition. Has this happened to anyone else running NT?

Although I have not been able to consistently reproduce the problem, I have noticed if you by chance have another process that has recently done something (i.e. an explorer window or dos box open on your destination directory or the temp folder) and have recently deleted something in that process, then this can cause problems somewhere in the process of running latex2html subsequently. In my experience, I sometimes even get access denined when trying to delete stuff from the destination folder after this problem happens (and I am admin, so not a permission issue.) I am able to get around this by either 1)terminating the offending process, i.e. closing the dos box or explorer window, 2)tinkering with the ldump setting and/or the reuse setting, or 3) at worst, sending the output to a completely different location than used on previous runs. Your mileage may vary. What I am certain of is it is looking for something that simply isn't there (for some reason) which is why I would be suspect of anything in latex2html or supporting programs that in any way cache file locations. Somehow you need to force it to forget the images were ever there in the first place so they can create a new home for themselves on the next run. Weird problem, I know.

According to this, it may be that the NT operating system, or a process initiated by browser software, is deleting the contents of the temporary directory *before* LaTeX2HTML has finished using those files. I realize that some are not as fortunate as others and must run NT :-) but it is not Nt that is deleting them. It is, as you say, lth that is deleting them. The problem is, at least by my observations, that l2h for some reason (when trying to convert the images) sometimes wants to use the same directory it used in the previous run, which is of course, no longer exists because l2h deleted it :-) If this is indeed the case, then having l2hnum created in a different location may well be appropriate on the NT platform. Ways to do this are outlined above. Please test this and report success or failure. I will try this, but definitive results may take a while since this is an intermittent problem (at least on my box.)

Re: [l2h] newbie question
$INIT_FILE_NAME = $ENV{'L2HINIT_NAME'} || '.latex2html-init' So to change the default name, you have to set an environment variable with name L2HINIT_NAME . That worked. I don't know why the default file isn't being read. Perhaps filenames beginning with '.' are not allowed on your system ? Apparently so. I can rename a file to . but I cannot edit .. Says bad file name. Additionally, during installation it appears that NT parsed .latex2html-init as dot.latex2html-init because that's what was created initially, hence the need to rename it. Use also the -show_init commandline switch; this will cause the contents of the initialisation file to be printed on the About this Document... page. That way you can see whether the correct file is being found and read. (You may also spot a Perl error, that is otherwise eluding your gaze. :-) I C:ee what you mean :-) 2. For the life of me I can't seem to customize $ADDRESS. Changes I make in l2hconf.pm (and in the init file per #1) are not being applied. Have you included the line: package main; in the init-file ? This may be needed to match the package used in the main script, so that your own definitions will override the defaults. Now that it's reading the init file, it works (even without package main). 3. This may be a LaTeX issue, not sure, I'm a newbie there too. How can I prevent l2h from placing a contents entry in index.html. (i.e. clicking on next in index.html just takes you to, well, the contents page. I definitely want the contents to be there, just not in the list in index.html. Show me an example document.
