-<h3>What is a DVI file?</h3>
-<p/>A DVI file (that is, a file with the type or extension
-<code>.dvi</code>) is TeX&rsquo;s main output file, using TeX in its
-broadest sense to include LaTeX, etc. &lsquo;DVI&rsquo; is supposed to
-be an acronym for DeVice-Independent, meaning
-that the file can be printed on most
-kinds of typographic output device. The DVI file is designed to be
-read by a driver (<a href="FAQ-driver.html">DVI drivers</a>) to produce
-further output designed specifically for a particular printer (e.g., a
-LaserJet) or to be used as input to a previewer for display on a
-computer screen. DVI files use TeX&rsquo;s internal coding; a TeX
-input file should produce the same DVI file regardless of which
-implementation of TeX is used to produce it.
-<p/>A DVI file contains all the information that is needed for printing
-or previewing except for the actual bitmaps or outlines of fonts, and
-possibly material to be introduced by means of
-<a href="FAQ-specials.html"><code>\</code><code>special</code> commands</a>.
-<p/>The canonical reference for the structure of a DVI file is the
-source of Knuth&rsquo;s program <i>dvitype</i> (whose original purpose,
-as its name implies, was to view the content of a DVI file).
