The most popular -is probably \texttt{Dviwin} by H. Sendoukas. However it lacks some -important features: -\begin{itemize} -\item the ability to recursively search directories for font files, -\item the ability to use .vf files or display PostScript fonts, -\item the ability to display PostScript images. -\end{itemize} - -Unfortunately, the \texttt{Dviwin} sources were never put into the -public domain; on the other side of the fence, \texttt{Xdvi} under -Unix has these features, is widely used and its sources are available. -\texttt{Xdvi(k)} uses the \texttt{kpathsea} library to search -directories, already used in the Web2c-win32 port of \TeX, so there -was some interest in porting \texttt{Xdvi(k)} to Win32. It turned -out that this was far more than just a port, since X Window is far -from Win32. All the user interface and the graphical part has been -rewritten. - -\subsection{Features} - -The most important features of \WDVI{} are as follows: -\begin{itemize} -\item monochrome or grey scale bitmaps (antialiasing) for fonts, -\item easy navigation through the dvi file - \begin{itemize} - \item page by page, - \item with different increments (by 5 or 10 pages at a time) - \item goto home, end, or any page within the document, - \end{itemize} -\item different shrink factors to zoom page in and out, -\item magnifying glass to show the page at the pixel level, -\item use of .vf fonts -\item display .pk .gf font files -\item automatic generation of missing PK files even for PostScript fonts, -\item tracking dvi file changes, and automatic reopening, -\item understanding Omega extended dvi files, -\item drag-and-drop file from the Windows shell explorer, -\item color support (a-la dvips), -\item real-time logging of background font generation, -\item visualization of PostScript inclusions, -\item graphical transformations under NT only, -\item support of Hyper\TeX{} specials, -\item printing support through the unified printer driver. -\end{itemize} - -\section{Installation} - -\subsection{The home of Windvi} - -Windvi is part of the \fptex distribution, which is itself based on -\tetex and \webc. - -You will find the whole \fptex distribution on any CTAN archive, for example: - -\url{ftp://ftp.tex.ac.uk/pub/tex/systems/win32/fptex} - -Beta versions of \fptex and other tools are available from: - -\url{ftp://ftp.ese-metz.fr/pub/tex/win32-beta} - -If you want to retrieve only the windvi distribution, you should get: - -\url{ftp://ftp.tex.ac.uk/pub/tex/systems/win32/fptex/windvi.zip} -for the standalone released version; - -\url{ftp://ftp.ese-metz.fr/pub/tex/win32-beta/windvixx.zip} -for beta versions, xx being always as high as possible. - -Announcements of beta version are made through the fptex -mailing-list. Subscriptions can be sent to -\url{mailto:majordomo@tug.org}. Send a message whose body is -'subscribe fptex' to subscribe. The list address is 'fptex@tug.org'. - -\subsection{Unpacking} - -Assuming you have retrieved one of the \texttt{windvixx.zip} files, you will -have to unpack it at the \texttt{<root>} of some TDS conformant texmf -tree like this one: - - -\begin{verbatim} - <root>/bin/win32 - /texmf/ - /dvips - /tex - /latex - /web2c -\end{verbatim} - -\begin{itemize} -\item \texttt{owindvi.exe}, \texttt{windvi.exe}, - \texttt{mktex*.exe} and \texttt{gsftopk.exe} go to - \texttt{bin/win32} -\item \texttt{render.ps} (used by gsftopk) goes to \texttt{texmf/dvips} -\item \texttt{texmf.cnf} and \texttt{mktex.cnf} go to \texttt{texmf/web2c}. -\end{itemize} - -In order not to overwrite the texmf.cnf and mktex.cnf files of people -who are already using Web2C for win32, those files are distributed as -texmf.xam and mktex.xam. You must rename them if you don't already -have .cnf files. - -Next, add \verb|<root>\bin\win32| to your \texttt{PATH}. This is -done by modifying \texttt{autoexec.bat} under Windows 9x or the -Control Panel/System under NT/W2K. - -\subsection{Configuration} - -If you have respected the previous layout for the tree, ie the -relative position of \texttt{windvi.exe} with respect to the texmf -directory, you should not have anything more to configure than update -your PATH environment variable. - -If you want to use \texttt{windvi.exe} in another context, you may need to -set the TEXMFMAIN and / or TEXMFCNF environment variable. TEXMFMAIN must -point to the texmf directory and TEXMFCNF to the directory containing -texmf.cnf. - -\subsection{Generation of PK files} - -The generation of PK files is under control of the \kpathsea{} library -through the use of \texttt{mktexpk.exe}. You can choose the destination for -generated files --- the scheme is explained in detail in the -\kpathsea{} documentation. - -The main points are: -\begin{itemize} -\item any generated file will go in the same texmf tree as the one in -which the font source has been found, -\item if the source directory is not writable, the directory named by -VARTEXFONTS will be used, so you had better set this variable to something -meaningful in texmf.cnf -\item MT\_FEATURES can be set either in mktex.cnf or in your environment to -control the naming of generated files: you can add 'dosnames', -'nomode', 'stripsupplier', 'striptypeface', 'fontmaps' and 'varfonts' -to the features. Feel free to experiment with them by setting -MT\_FEATURES in the environment and checking with 'mktexnam cmr10' for -the result you want. -\end{itemize} - -\subsection{Type1 fonts} - -In order to use \texttt{gsftopk.exe} to generate PK files for Type1 fonts, you -will need to install Ghostscript. Ghostscript is used in the background -for computing the bitmaps. See section~\ref{gs-install} about -Ghostscript installation. - -After that, \WDVI{} should be able to generate PK files for your Type1 -fonts, providing you have the corresponding vf and tfm files. It is -however wise to try \texttt{mktexnam.exe} on some of your fonts -(\texttt{'mktexnam ptmr8r'} for example) to check that the fonts will -be put at the right place. - -\subsection{PostScript\TM\ inclusions} - -\WDVI\ is able to display some PostScript\TM\ inclusions, thanks to -Ghostscript. What is understood~: -\begin{itemize} -\item \texttt{graphics} bundle from \LaTeX2e, -\item \texttt{psfig} inclusions, -\item some raw PostScript\TM\ like the \texttt{pspicture} package. -\end{itemize} - -The \texttt{bop / eop} mechanism is not (yet) supported, so do not -expect the \texttt{draft} package to display anything. Also, not all -material is processed by Ghostscript, so rotated text will not appear -so when displayed. - -For performance reasons, the magnifying glass will not render your ps -inclusions. - -See section~\ref{gs-install} about Ghostscript installation. - -\section{Quick startup} - -Create a shortcut to \WDVI{} on your desktop: -\begin{itemize} -\item click right button on the desktop, -\item New Shortcut, -\item browse and find \texttt{windvi.exe} -\item OK. -\end{itemize} - -Next, explore your computer, drag and drop some dvi file onto the -\WDVI{} icon. If everything goes well, \WDVI{} -will open your dvi file and choose a suitable shrink factor for the -page to be fully displayed. - -\subsection{Hyper\TeX{} support} - -\WDVI\ will handle specials inserted by packages such as -\emph{hyperref} by Sebastian Rahtz. This means that you will be able -to navigate inisde (and outside !) your document, much like with your -usual browser. - -Hyperlinks are automatically hilighted. The behaviour is modified in -the following way~: -\begin{itemize} -\item clicking on mouse left will move to the page the link is - pointing to. That means if it is inside your document, the page - pointed is displayed. If it is in another dvi file, this file is - opened and the page displayed. If the link references anything else - than a dvi file, the \textsl{Windows} shell is called to handle the - reference. That means such an url as - \url{mailto:fabrice.popineau@supelec.fr} will probably launch - \textsl{Outlook Express} or whatever is your default mail tool. -\item clicking on control plus mouse left will do the same, except - that if the link points to another dvi file, your current dvi file - will stay open, and another windvi will display the new file. If you - are running in single-instance mode, there will be no difference - between using control and not using it. -\item there is a \emph{back} icon tool to go back through the - hyperlinks list you have browsed. -\end{itemize} - -\section{Reference guide} - -\subsection{Settings} - -Current settings are saved each time you quit in a -\texttt{windvi.cnf} file. This file is located under the -\textsf{HOME} directory if this environment variable is set, or -under \verb|c:\| otherwise. - -You can have a site-wide \texttt{windvi.cnf} file -located in \texttt{\$TEXMFCNF/windvi.cnf}. This file will be read -before the user one and settings will be merged. - -\subsection{Logging} - -Any error or informational message will make the log window pop -up. Font generation and so on is displayed in real-time. - -There is no way currently to avoid the pop-up feature. - -\subsection{Features} - -\subsubsection{General features} - -All the features of \WDVI{} are documented in this -\href{file://examples/wtest.tex}{sample file}. You are encouraged to -look at it. - -\subsubsection{Postscript inclusions} - -\WDVI{} will allow you to preview many PostScript inclusions, -including raw PostScript specials. See the \texttt{Examples/wtest.tex} -file for examples. The \texttt{bop / eop} feature found in dvips is -not yet supported. - -Most of the features available are described in the document -\texttt{Examples/wtest.tex}. - -However, there is a drawback. The ghostscript interpreter will allow -the whole page at the requested scaling factor to do its job. That -means a color page on a 24bits device, A4 size at 600dpi will be as -huge as 34Mb. This is enough to make your W9x crash. NT won't crash -but will slow down a lot and may become unusable. - -Eventually, PostScript visualization will be turned off automatically -if it is detected that ghostscript will use too much memory. - -\subsubsection{Colors} - -\WDVI{} will honor color specials as introduced either by -\texttt{colordvi} (plain \TeX{}) or \texttt{color} package (\LaTeX{}). - -However, it is recommended to use this feature on true color -devices. That means at least 32768 colors available. - -On 256 colors devices, no antialiasing is done for color -text. Moreover, the rendering maybe wrong because of the low number of -colors available. - -\subsection{Printing} - -Currently, printing works provided that you used the right command -line options to run windvi. The options needed are the metafont mode -for your printer and the base dpi number. Once you have run it with -the right parameters, they will be saved in your \path|windvi.cnf| -file so no need to bother for them again, unless you change your -printer. For example : -\begin{verbatim} -windvi -p 720 -mfmode esphi foo.dvi -\end{verbatim} -will allow you to print at 720dpi on an Epson Stylus printer. - -The file holding the modes is \path|texmf/metafont/misc/modes.mf| and -if you ever change it, you might want to rebuild your \mf formats -using \path|fmtutil|. - -This will be made obsolete (or almost) by the forthcoming support for -Type1 and TTF fonts. - -\subsection{Command line options} - -\begin{description} -\item [+<page>] Specifies the first page to show. If \texttt{+} is - given without a number, the last page is assumed; the first page is - the default. -\item[-allowshell] This option enables the shell escape in PostScript specials. -(For security reasons, shell escapes are disabled by default.) -This option should be rarely used; in particular it should not be used just -to uncompress files: that function is done automatically if the file name -ends in \verb|.Z| or \verb|.gz| . Shell escapes are always turned off if the -\verb|-safer| option is used. -\item[-altfont <font>] Declares a default font to use when the font in - the dvi file cannot be found. This is useful, for example, with - PostScript fonts. Defaults to \texttt{cmr10} -\item[-background <color>] uses \texttt{<color>} as background color -\item[-bg <color>] same as \texttt{-background} -\item[-debug <bitmask>]If nonzero, prints additional information on - standard output. The number is taken as a set of independent bits. - The meaning of each bit follows. 1=bitmaps; 2=dvi translation; 4=pk - reading; 8=batch operation; 16=events; 32=file opening; - 64=PostScript communication; 128=Kpathsea stat(2) calls; - 256=Kpathsea hash table lookups; 512=Kpathsea path definitions; - 1024=Kpathsea path expansion; 2048=Kpathsea searches. To trace - everything having to do with file searching and opening, use 4000. - Some of these debugging options are actually provided by Kpathsea. - See the `Debugging' section in the Kpathsea manual. - -\item[-density <density>] Determines the density used when shrinking - bitmaps for fonts. A higher value produces a lighter font. The - default value is 40. For monochrome displays; for color displays, - use -gamma. See also the `S' keystroke. Same as \texttt{-S}. -\item[-foreground <color>] Uses \texttt{<color>} as foreground color -\item[-fg <color>] same as \texttt{-foreground} -\item[-gamma <gamma>] Controls the interpolation of colors in the - greyscale anti-aliasing color palette. Default value is 1.0. For - $0 < $ gamma $ < 1$, the fonts will be lighter (more like the - background), and for gamma $ > 1$, the fonts will be darker (more - like the foreground). Negative values behave the same way, but use - a slightly different algorithm. For color and grayscale displays; - for monochrome, see -density. For color and greyscale displays; for - monochrome, see \texttt{-density}. See also the `S' keystroke. -\item[-geometry <string>] Specifies an initial X-Window geometry string. -\item[-grid1 <color>] Determines the color of level 1 grid (default as - foreground) -\item[-grid2 <color>] Determines the color of level 2 grid (default as - foreground) -\item[-grid3 <color>] Determines the color of level 3 grid (default as - foreground) -\item[-gspalette <palette>] Specifies the palette to be used when using Ghostscript for rendering -PostScript specials. Possible values are -\begin{itemize} -\item Color, -\item Greyscale, -\item Monochrome. -\end{itemize} -The default is Color. -\item[-gsalpha] Causes Ghostscript to be called with anti-aliasing - enabled in PostScript figures, for a nicer appearance. It is - available on newer versions of Ghostscript. -\item[-hush] Causes \WDVI{} to suppress all suppressible warnings. -\item[-hushchars] Causes \WDVI{} to suppress warnings about references - to characters which are not defined in the font. -\item[-hushchecksums] Causes \WDVI{} to suppress warnings about - checksum mismatches between the dvi file and the font file. -\item[-hushspecials] Causes \WDVI{} to suppress warnings about - \texttt{special} strings that it cannot process. -\item[-keep] Sets a flag to indicate that \WDVI{} should not move to the home - position when moving to a new page. See also the `k' keystroke. -\item[-margins <dimen>] This determines the ``home'' position of the - page within the window as follows. If the entire page fits in the - window, then the margin settings are ignored. If, even after - removing the margins from the left, right, top, and bottom, the page - still cannot fit in the window, then the page is put in the window - such that the top and left margins are hidden, and presumably the - upper left-hand corner of the text on the page will be in the upper - left-hand corner of the window. Otherwise, the text is centered in - the window. The dimension should be a decimal number optionally - followed by any of the two-letter abbreviations for units accepted - by (pt, pc, in, bp, cm, mm, dd, cc or sp). See also - \texttt{-sidemargin}, \texttt{-topmargin} , and the keystroke ` M .' -\item[-mfmode <mode-def>] Specifies a \emph{mode-def} string, which - can be used in searching for fonts. Generally, when changing the - mode-def, it is also necessary to change the font size to the - appropriate value for that mode. This is done by adding a colon and - the value in dots per inch; for example, \texttt{-mfmode - ljfour:600}. This method overrides any value given by the - \texttt{-p} command-line argument. The metafont mode is also passed - to \MF{} during automatic creation of fonts. By default, it is - \texttt{ljfour:600} -\item[-mgs <size>] Same as \texttt{-mgs1} . -\item[-mgs[n] <size>] Specifies the size of the window to be used for - the ``magnifying glass'' for Button n . The size may be given as an - integer (indicating that the magnifying glass is to be square), or - it may be given in the form width $\times$ height. Defaults are - 200$\times$150, 400$\times$250, 700$\times$500, 1000$\times$800, and - 1200$\times$1200. -\item[-nogrey] Turns off the use of greyscale anti-aliasing when - printing shrunken bitmaps. (For this option, the logic of the - corresponding resource is reversed: \texttt{-nogrey} corresponds to - \texttt{grey:off} and \texttt{+nogrey} to \texttt{grey:on} See also - the `G' keystroke. -\item[-nomakepk] Turns off automatic generation of font files that - cannot be found by other means. -\item[-nopostscript] Turns off rendering of PostScript\TM\ specials. -Bounding boxes, if known, will be displayed instead. -This option can also be toggled with the ` v ' keystroke. -\item[-noscan] Normally, when PostScript\TM\ is turned on, -\WDVI\ will do a preliminary scan of the dvi -file, in order to send any necessary header files before sending the -PostScript code that requires them. This option turns off such prescanning. -(It will be automatically be turned back on if -\WDVI\ -detects any specials that require headers.) -\item[-offsets] Specifies the size of both the horizontal and vertical - offsets of the output on the page. This should be a decimal number - optionally followed by `` cm '', e.g. , 1.5 or 3cm , giving a - measurement in inches or centimeters. By decree of the Stanford - \TeX\ Project, the default \TeX{} page origin is always 1 inch - over and down from the top-left page corner, even when non-American - paper sizes are used. Therefore, the default offsets are 1.0 inch. - See also \texttt{-xoffset} and \texttt{-yoffset} . -\item[-p <dpi>] Defines the size of the fonts to use, in pixels per - inch. The default value is 600. -\item[-qpaper <papertype>] Specifies the size of the printed page. - This may be of the form \emph{width}$\times$\emph{height} (or - \emph{width}$\times$\emph{height}cm), where width is the width in - inches (or cm) and height is the height in inches (or cm), - respectively. There are also synonyms which may be used: us - (8.5x11), usr (11x8.5), legal (8.5x14), foolscap (13.5x17), as well - as the ISO sizes a1 - a7 , b1 - b7 , c1 - c7 , a1r - a7r ( a1 - - a7rotated), etc. The default size is 21 x 29.7 cm. -\item[-rv] Causes the page to be displayed with white characters on a - black background, instead of vice versa. -\item[-s <shrinkfactor>] Defines the initial shrink factor. The - default value is to choose en appropriate factor. -\item[-S <density>] Same as -density, q.v. -\item[-sidemargin <dimen>] Specifies the side margin (see - \texttt{-margins}). -\item[-topmargin <dimen>] Specifies the top and bottom margins (see - \texttt{-margins}). -\item[-version] Displays the version number and exits. -\item[-xoffset <dimen>] Specifies the size of the horizontal offset of - the output on the page. See \texttt{-offsets} . -\item[-yoffset <dimen>] Specifies the size of the vertical offset of - the output on the page. See \texttt{-offsets} . -\item[-xform] Turns on graphical transformations, which allows to - apply any transformation to glyph boxes. -\end{description} - -\subsection{Mouse} -\begin{description} -\item[left button] pops up the small magnifying glass, as long as the - button is down. -\item[middle button] pops up the medium magnifying glass, as long as the - button is down. -\item[right button] pops up the big magnifying glass, as long as the - button is down. -\item[Shift + left button] change the arrow cursor for a crossbar - cursor and enter 'setting home position' mode. Home position is set - when the button is released. Usefule with the 'Keep Home' feature. -\end{description} -\subsection{Shortcut keys} - -\begin{description} -\item[Home, '\textasciicircum'] goto the upper left corner of the - page. If margins are active, use them. -\item[Next, 'n', Enter] goto next page. -\item[Prior, 'b', Backspace] goto previous page. -\item[Ctrl-Home, Ctrl-End] goto first (resp. last) page. -\item[Numpad +, Numpad -] zoom in (resp. out). -\item[Arrow keys, 'l', 'r', 'u', 'd'] move in the corresponding - direction (left, right, up, down). -\item['k'] Normally when \WDVI{} switches pages, it moves to the home - position as well. The ` k ' keystroke toggles a `keep-position' - flag which, when set, will keep the same position when moving - between pages. -\item['M'] set margins at the cursor. -\item['t'] change tick units (cursor position). -\end{description} - -\section{Ghostscript installation} -\label{gs-install} - -Statring with Ghostscript 5.50 and \fptex 0.4 (as on the \texlive 5 -\cdrom), no specific Ghostscript installation should be needed. All -the tools are linked to some library that knows where to look for -Ghostscript in the registry. - -In doubt or in case of trouble, try to set your PATH so that gsdll32.dll be -found: -\begin{verbatim} -PATH=c:\\gstools\\gs5.50;\%PATH\% -\end{verbatim} - -If you encounter error messages like: -\begin{verbatim} -Aladdin Ghostscript: Can't find initialization file gs_init.ps. -gsdll_init returns 255 -\end{verbatim} -or something about font not found, it is more than likely that -Ghostscript has been installed in a strange way. You can solve this by -telling Ghostscript explicitely where its files are located: -\begin{verbatim} - set GS_LIB=c:\gstools\gs5.50;c:\gstools\fonts -\end{verbatim} - -Also : make sure to have only one version of Ghostscript -installed. Version 5.50 can't work with initialization files of -version 5.10 for example. - -Also beware that if you are running any version of \path|gsftopk| -older than 0.19.1 and you have upgraded Ghostscript to version 6.0 or -later, then \path|gsftopk| will fail to build fonts. - -\section{FAQ} - -\begin{enumerate} -\item \textbf{\WDVI{} opens and closes immediately.} -You should check your installation: -\begin{itemize} -\item did you rename the .xam files into .cnf files ? -\item have you .cnf files ? -\item what \texttt{mktexnam cmr10} does report ? -\item in case of trouble, do the following: -\begin{verbatim} -set KPATHSEA_DEBUG_OUTPUT=err.log -mktexnam --debug=1536 cmr10 -\end{verbatim} -and send the \texttt{err.log} file to \url{mailto:Fabrice.Popineau@supelec.fr} -\end{itemize} - -\item \textbf{\WDVI{} is stuck with the hour glass cursor, displaying - some font name in the status bar.} Currently, when kpathsea is - generating fonts, \WDVI{} is blocked. You can't see any progress - status. This is because \texttt{kpathsea}-based programs are - inherently console mode programs and \texttt{\WDVI{}} is a GUI - program. If it takes too long time and the status bar doesn't - change, there is the chance of an improper installation. Check with - the previous question. In this case, you will need to kill \WDVI{} - by hand, and any process named \texttt{mf.exe} or - \texttt{mktexpk.exe} too. -\item In any case, check in the \texttt{Help -> View Log File} window - for any strange messages and report them. -\item \textbf{I'm using MiKTeX. Can I use \WDVI{} ?} Yes. But even if - the layout tree for MiKTeX is TDS-conformant, it is not quite the - same as the layout for Web2C. This is what Jody Klymak - \url{mailto:jklymak@apl.washington.edu} did~: - - \begin{quotation} - I got windvi running under Windows NT using the following steps. - I'm sure the steps are very similar on a Win95 machine. They are - essentially the same a Fabrice's instructions. It seems to handle - fonts correctly. If anyone has a better way to do it, let me - know.
