It compiles \LaTeX\ files to `HTML` with this command sequence: - latex $latex_options 'code for loading tex4ht.sty \input{filename}' - latex $latex_options 'code for loading tex4ht.sty \input{filename}' - latex $latex_options 'code for loading tex4ht.sty \input{filename}' - tex4ht $tex4ht_options filename - t4ht $t4ht_options filename + $ latex $latex_options 'code for loading tex4ht.sty \input{filename}' + $ latex $latex_options 'code for loading tex4ht.sty \input{filename}' + $ latex $latex_options 'code for loading tex4ht.sty \input{filename}' + $ tex4ht $tex4ht_options filename + $ t4ht $t4ht_options filename The options for various parts of the system can be passed on the command line: - htlatex filename "tex4ht.sty options" "tex4ht_options" "t4ht_options" "latex_options" + $ htlatex filename "tex4ht.sty options" "tex4ht_options" "t4ht_options" "latex_options" For basic `HTML` conversion it is possible to use the most basic invocation: - htlatex filename.tex + $ htlatex filename.tex -It can be much more involved for `HTML 5` output in `UTF-8` encoding: +It can be much more involved for the `HTML 5` output in `UTF-8` encoding: - htlatex filename.tex "xhtml,html5,charset=utf-8" "-cmozhtf -utf8" + $ htlatex filename.tex "xhtml,html5,charset=utf-8" " -cmozhtf -utf8" `make4ht` can simplify it: - make4ht -uf html5 filename.tex + $ make4ht -u filename.tex + +The `-u` option requires the `UTF-8` encoding. `HTML 5` is used as the default +output format by `make4ht`. + +More information about the command line arguments can be found in section +\ref{sec:clioptions}. + + +## Compilation sequence -Another issue is the fixed compilation order and hard-coded number of LaTeX invocations. +`htlatex` has a fixed compilation order and a hard-coded number of \LaTeX\ invocations. -When you need to run a program which interact with LaTeX, such as `Makeindex` -or `Bibtex`, you need to create a new script based on `htlatex`, or run -`htlatex` twice, which means that LaTeX will be invoked six times. -This can lead to significantly long compilation times. `make4ht` provides build files and -extensions, which can be used for interaction with external tools. +It is not possible to execute additional commands during the compilation. +When we want to run a program that interacts with \LaTeX, such as `Makeindex` +or `Bibtex`, we have two options.
