A flexible and convenient interface allows it to +specify what commands and constructs should be extracted. This works +with DVI files postprocessed by either Dvips and Ghostscript or +dvipng, but it also works when you are using PDFTeX for generating PDF +files. + +Current uses of the package include the preview-latex package for +WYSIWYG functionality in the AUCTeX editing environment, generation of +previews in LyX, as part of the operation of the ps4pdf and pst-pdf +packages, the tbook XML system and some other tools. + +Availability +------------ + +The preview package is being developed along and distributed with +AUCTeX. It can therefore be obtained as part of AUCTeX distribution +files available at <URL:ftp://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/auctex/> or its +mirror at <CTAN:support/auctex>. CTAN also provides a standalone +version at <CTAN:macros/latex/contrib/preview>. The project page at +<URL:http://savannah.gnu.org/projects/auctex/> offers downloads and +anonymous CVS access for cutting edge versions. For more information +about the preview package please refer to the home page of AUCTeX at +<URL:http://www.gnu.org/software/auctex/>. + +Installation +------------ + +To install the preview style file on its own without the entire AUCTeX +package, run tex preview.ins If preview.ins happens to be missing, you can regenerate it by running tex docstrip @@ -49,10 +50,12 @@ location where LaTeX will be able to find them, generate the documentation and have fun.
