Bug Fixes and Comments

• The home page (osu, tug) of TEX4ht contains files which were current on February 11, 2004 (tex4ht-20040211.zip). The zipped file newt4ht.zip offers the following modified files.
  • tex4ht.c (Oct 12, 2004)
  • tex4ht.exe for MS win32 (Oct 12, 2004)
  • t4ht.c (April 21, 2004)
  • tex4ht.env (Sept 1, 2004)
  • oolatex.bat, ootex.bat, ootexi.bat (May 27, 2004)
  • mk4ht (May 3, 2004)
  • tex4ht.sty (Sept 26, 2004)
  • *.4ht (Oct 15, 2004)

• The *.htf fonts are available at htf.zip (Oct 3, 2004).

• A complete modified distribution can be downloaded from tex4ht.tar.gz (or tex4ht-1.0.2004_10_15_1159.tar.gz)

1. New support for ConTeXt:
   • The calling instructions reside at bin/(unix,win32). They might require minor adjustments.

   • The initial support is just for HTML output, based only on the features described in Berend de Boer’s LaTeX in proper ConTeXt report.

   • Much work is still needed. Many of the current configurations are crude and expected to go through major revisions.

   • Future work will be driven by bug reports. The reports should include miniature complete examples similar to those in Boer’s report.

2. Replace ‘.G’ with ‘G.’ in tex4ht.env.

3. For XP MicroSoft Windows, replace '#FFFFFF' with "#FFFFFF" in tex4ht.env.

4. If gif bitmaps do not show their lowest parts check that the problem is not due to a recent version of ImageMagic convert dated prior to April 2004.

5. For old ImageMagick convert versions that do not recognize the ‘+repage’ attribute, use instead the ‘+page’ attribute in the environment file tex4ht.env.

6. Revised pointers: MikTEX and ScientificWord/WorkPlace

7. Yves Gesnel offers a simple Mac OS X GUI for TeX4ht at http://www.simpletex4ht.free.fr

8. In the home page the instruction

   htlatex filename "xhtml,ooffice" "-coo"

   should be replaced with

   htlatex filename "xhtml,ooffice" "ooffice/! -cmozhtf" "-coo"

9. RPMs for Fedora

10. There is a typo in the win32 tex4ht.env as distributed. In the .png section the call to “gs” should be “Ggswin32c”.

11. In the main documentation item (d), ’\bigl\{...\bigg|...\bigr’ should be fixed to ’\bigl\{...\bigg|...\bigr\}’

12. In the main documentation section Configurable Hooks, ’xhlatex mktex4ht’ should be fixed to ’xhlatex mktex4ht.4ht’
