Re: tex4ht on FreeBSD with LyX 1.5.7
Dear Marco, There is no port or package for tex4ht and it is not included in teTeX which FreeBSD uses. You have to visit the web page of tex4ht to download it and you need to compile it manually. I don't think it will be enabled even if you install lyx-1.6, but the (unauthorized) port of lyx-1.6 itself can be downloaded from: http://www.int.otaru-uc.ac.jp/lyx-howto/install/port-lyx-1.6.2.tar.bz2 Please expand it in /usr/ports/print and make it. LyX 1.6 will not be introduced in system ports until the overhaul of LaTeX system in FreeBSD completes (which is taking time somehow). Koji

tex4ht on FreeBSD with LyX 1.5.7
Hi, I'm looking for someone who has experience with exporting lyx documents to open document format in FreeBSD. I read that is done by the tex4ht package. I'm running LyX 1.5.7 on FreeBSD 7.2-ST, and LyX uses teTeX 3.0. How do I install tex4ht on my system? The LyX-wiki says that it should already been installed but on my system I don't think it is. When I add a converter LaTeX (plain) - OpenDocument with the converter htlatex, LyX complains that an error occurred whilst running htlatex, and does nothing. I hope that someone here has an idea how to do this. Perhaps I should wait for LyX 1.6 submitted to the ports? Thanks in advance, Marco -- To generalize is to be an idiot. -- William Blake

[Re] problem with tex4ht ### SOLVED ###
From: Ares [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Hello everyone,
I wrote a nice user manual for my application in LyX and I wanted to
translate it to html to inlcude it direclty in the user interface (I
know pdf with hyperref can do wonderful things but I want to play with
html now).
After some trouble (always the same problem of compatibility of
hyperref package) I manage to have a good html by:
1. exporting foo.lyx to foo.tex (plain)
2. latex foo
3. bibtex foo
3. latex foo
4. latex foo
3. htlatex foo html
except that figures look very bad (not all) as I suspect they are
converted from png to eps to jpg and resized as well somewhere. but
this is not my concern now.
try
\usepackage{graphicx}
in the preamble, and
\DeclareGraphicsExtensions{.png,.eps,.ps}
in your document. This shall avoid useless file conversions.
I try to do:
htlatex foo html,2,frames
as suggested in the tex4ht doc
(file:///C:/Programmi/MiKTeX%202.5/doc/tex4ht/tex4ht/mn.html) to
break up the output into separate web pages, in accordance to the two
top sectioning levels of the document and to place the content and
table of contents in separate frames.
what I get is a single file, in one single frame.
The funny thing is that I managed to achive the desired result some
time ago on the same machine. by the way I'm on WinXP, LyX 1.4.3,
freshly updated MiKTeX 2.5
To solve this problem, try renaming the htlatex.exe file (which is
equivalent to deleting it while saving it for later) and moving the
htlatex.bat file to the htlatex.exe folder (you have to locate these
two files - exe and bat - on your machine). thanks to Eitan M. Gurari.

Hi Jens, I just wanted to thank you for all the text4ht into and your own very helpful page on same. These resources are going to be very helpful as I continue to learn about TeX, LaTeX, XML and such. Being an author of music instruction materials as well, my primary use and interest in LyX/TeX is not as a mathematician or scientist. I love the way LyX let's me concentrate on the content, and avails me of a wide-range of symbols as I need them. Unlike many authors of music materials, my need for music notation is less critical because the type of things I teach (mainly to professional and other aspiring musicians). For rhythmic and also standard notation however, I do have occasional needs. I would really prefer to use typography rather than bitmaps. So I was wondering if you or any other reader on this list knew of any music notation packages that use or export to LaTeX so that I might be able to use these in conjunction with my LyX docs. thanks much, Jamie Faunt http://musicalskills.com

Hi, couple of people mentioned htlatex as tool for conversion from LaTeX to HTML. I have long history (at least 2 years) of not being able to convert even quite simple LaTeX to HTML with tex4ht stuff. Using Debian/testing, I have tex4ht 20060619-1 and when I tried to convert my dissertation proposal, I got just garbage -- certainly not correct HTML. You can see record of my attempts on http://www.ceplovi.cz/matej/tmp/htlatex-record.zip . Could anybody explain me what's wrong with me, please?

Hi, I would like to convert my lyx file to some m$ office editable format.
You have suggested tex4ht, what I haven't used before. I have used tex2rtf
already.
Right now I cannot use any of the two.
Can someone help? I don't care how, but I would like to have some format
that my prof can open and edit in Word, and he should see at least some
structure and layout. I no longer care about the quality, it is quite
enough if he sees the numbering of sections, the lists, different depths,
etc.
Here are the things I did after exporting to latex from lyx:
$ htlatex thesis-komascript_article.tex
...
(./thesis-komascript_article.aux) )

\ref tex4ht
I am trying to use \label and \ref with tex4ht and the results are not pretty. Tex4ht seems to go into an endless loop and eats up all my processor time. The only way I can find to reference \label is to use \pageref which for some bizarre reason tex4ht will take and uses to generate some seemingly random page number. I really just want to use \label and \ref with the output being something reasonable like a section number. Is this possible? I am aware of \hypertarget and \hyperlink but having to manage my own cross linking is, well, nuts. The whole point of having word processors is to manage nonsense like this. So if anyone knows a reasonable way to get \ref and \label working with tex4ht I'd really appreciate your help. Thanks, Yaron

Ok, Eitan Gurari replied to my email and here's the promised follow-up:
first some interesting news (?) about eps in oolatex:
eitanThe current version of tex4ht
(http://www.cse.ohio-state.edu/~gurari/TeX4ht/bugfixes.html) should
load the eps pictures into the sxw files without conversions, so for
such files the G-scripts in tex4ht.env are not relevant. If the
conversion to DOC doesn't support EPS I would argue that the problem
is with the conversion utility as OpenOffice seems to be satisfied
with such files.
/eitan
current here refers to April/May 2005 I guess. Afai understand the
non-bugfix distribution of February doesn't do that, or at least
otherwise I cannot make sense of the documentation.
With respect to my eps-from-latex-to-doc-via-sxw/openoffice-problem he's
right, it's an openoffice bug if they don't convert the embedded
eps-images correctly. Nevertheless he apparently added a user option as
a workaround:
eitanI modified the bugfixes distribution of tex4ht to allow the user to
override the default setting through an instruction of the form
\Configure{graphics*} {eps} {}. In such a case, the G-script of the
tex4ht.env will be applied to the eps files.
/eitan
Now this apparently means a post May-29th-2005 distribution. I'm still a
tex4ht-newbie, but it seems to me that in order to use this
\Configure-thing you must either include it in the latex source file, or
you load a config-file which however means you cannot use the
oolatex-shortcut. (I'd love to be corrected on this one.)
Finally he explained how to choose between the g-scripts in tex4ht.env,
which may have been obvious to others, but not to me:
eitan
there are two options: convert.../convert and
netpbm.../netpbm. The first one is chosen because the convert
tag and /convert end tag are preceded by spaces. If the spaces are
placed instead before netpbm and /netpbm then the second option
will take over.
/eitan
Hope this is of value for somebody,

tex4ht and Openoffice
Hi all,
First of all a big thanks to authors of tex4ht for making this wonderful
program. It makes the life easier for people like me who has to send
documents to places where latex is unknown! and MS word rules.
I have been playing with this oolatex to convert a lyx/tex file to openoffice
format. By and large the program was successfull in converting the document
but there were some bits which created problems and hence this email. I have
put together a lyx file (attached) which does not come out properly in
openoffice (running beta-2 version 1.9.95)
1. Some frame decorations go missing in openoffice, instead squares appear.
2. I usually make plots using gnuplot/pslatex terminal and embed them into
lyx. The plot do show up in openoffice but the image setting is set to a
small scale. Right clicking on the image and Setting the Crop property to
'original size' brings back the original/desired size. When, there are too
many images in the document, setting each individual image property becomes
too cumbersome!. Is there a default setting? Also, the image boundary (axis
label) is slightly truncated. The truncation was much bigger for another of
my gnuplot generated picture.
3. Table captions dont show up in openoffice where as figure captions work
fine.
4. I generated an eps file thru gri
(/usr/share/doc/gri-2.12.7/html/example4.html) which is marked as 'Read
error' in openoffice. Please note that gri's output is a .ps file but
running the command file grifile.ps showed PostScript document text
conforming at level 2.0 - type EPS, so i renamed the file to .eps
I have modified the convert statement in tex4ht.env to increase the image
quality
Gdvips -E -Ppdf -mode lexmarku -D 600 -x 2000 -y 2000 -f %%1 -pp %%2
zz%%4.ps
Gconvert zz%%4.ps -trim +repage -density 600x600 -geometry 70% -transparent
'#FF' %%3
The curve.tex gnuplot code was made by:
$$gnuplot
set term pslatex
set out curve.tex
plot x**2
Any pointers to solving these problems will be helpful.
Thanks

tex4ht and Openoffice
Hi all,
First of all a big thanks to authors of tex4ht for making this wonderful
program. It makes the life easier for people like me who has to send
documents to places where latex is unknown! and MS word rules.
I have been playing with this oolatex to convert a lyx/tex file to openoffice
format. By and large the program was successfull in converting the document
but there were some bits which created problems and hence this email. I have
put together a lyx file (attached) which does not come out properly in
openoffice (running beta-2 version 1.9.95)
1. Some frame decorations go missing in openoffice, instead squares appear.
2. I usually make plots using gnuplot/pslatex terminal and embed them into
lyx. The plot do show up in openoffice but the image setting is set to a
small scale. Right clicking on the image and Setting the Crop property to
'original size' brings back the original/desired size. When, there are too
many images in the document, setting each individual image property becomes
too cumbersome!. Is there a default setting? Also, the image boundary (axis
label) is slightly truncated. The truncation was much bigger for another of
my gnuplot generated picture.
3. Table captions dont show up in openoffice where as figure captions work
fine.
4. I generated an eps file thru gri
(/usr/share/doc/gri-2.12.7/html/example4.html) which is marked as 'Read

problem with tex4ht / oolatex (graphics conversion to word-doc)
hi, slightly OT here (just latex without lyx), but maybe somebody can help or direct me to a more appropriate place to ask: I use tex4ht to convert a latex document to MS-Word by exporting it to a sxw-file (oolatex command), and then save that as a Word doc with Staroffice/Openoffice. Most of it works quite well (to my surprise). The remaining problem I have is graphics conversion. (I have ghostscript and imagemagick installed -- oh, btw this is on windows 2k.) If I start out with standard eps-files (tex4ht doesn't appear to work with pdflatex, right?), I can get them included into the Openoffice-sxw such that they get printed (although they don't show up on screen). However, after converting to doc they are lost. so my questions: 1) is it normal not to have a preview or bitmap or anything of the eps-graphics in the openoffice output? 2) I looked (and already had to make some adjustments) in the tex4ht.env file, where it says choose one G-script (this is related to graphics conversion); how do I do that? (and which?) 3) any other hints? thanks much and have a good weekend -sven

LaTeX - XML with TeX4ht? (was: LyX - XML, Koma-Script - XSD XSL?)
Is there an easy way to convert the content of a LyX document to XML (and vice-versa)? Well at least for LaTeX - XML there seems to be a solution with TeX4ht. Has anyone significant experience with this and especially how well it performs with documents written for the Komascript-Classes? TIA, Best regards Wolfgang Keller

Possibly there's a problem with the fonts you're requesting in the document: could you process a tiny document and then post the the document itself plus the stuff tex4ht writes to the screen *after* it's done running latex? (I think this will begin -- approximately Have you been reading the extensive thread on this subject? I explain quite clearly (I thought) that the ligatures are 'translated' to the character '0x00'. It transpires this is true only for some translations. For example, htlatex file 'xhtml,mozilla' ' -cmozhtf' works fine, but htlatex file 'xhtml,ooffice' swallows 'em. -- Angus
