NAME

latex2rtf – Convert a LaTeX file to an RTF file

SYNTAX

latex2rtf [-hlpFSVW] [ -d# ] [ -D# ] [ -M# ] [ -se#] [ -sf#] [ -t# ] [ -Z# ] [ -a auxfile ] [ -b bblfile ] [ -C codepage ] [ -i language ] [ -o outputfile ] [ -P /path/to/cfg ] [ -T /path/to/tmp ] [ inputfile ]

DESCRIPTION

The latex2rtf command converts a LaTeX file into RTF text format. The text and much of the formatting information is translated to RTF.

-a auxfile

Used to specify a particular cross-referencing file. When this option is omitted, the auxfile is assumed to be the same as inputfile with the .tex suffix replaced by .aux.

-b bblfile

Used to specify a particular bibliography file When this option is omitted, the bblfile is assumed to be the same as inputfile with the .tex suffix replaced by .bbl.

-C codepage

used to specify the character set (code page) used in the LaTeX document for non-ansi characters. codepage may be one of the following: ansinew, applemac, cp437, cp437de, cp850, cp852, cp855, cp865, cp866, decmulti, cp1250, cp1252, koi8-r, koi8-u, latin1, latin2, latin3, latin4, latin5, latin9, maccyr, macukr, next, raw, raw437, raw852, raw1250, raw1251, and raw1253. The default behavior is to use ansinew (same as cp1252). For convenience, just the numbers 437, 437de, 850, 852, 855, 866, 1250 or 1252 may be specified.

The raw character set encoding prevents any 8-bit character translation. The RTF file is marked to use the same encoding as the default encoding for the program interpreting the RTF file. This is particularly useful when translating a file written in a language (e.g., czech) that maps poorly into the ansinew (western european) character set.

-d#

Write extra debugging output to stderr. Higher numbers cause more debugging output and range from 0 (only errors) to 6 (absurdly many messages). The default is 1 (Warnings and Errors only).

-D dots_per_inch

Used to specify the number of dots per inch in equations that are converted to bitmaps and for graphics that must be converted. Default is 300 dpi.

-E#

where # selects the type of figure handling desired. RTF does not support insertion of PS, PDF, or EPS file types. These figures must be converted to a bitmap format and then inserted. One trick is to insert the filenames into the RTF file and then in post-processing, insert the file. These options can be added together.
-E3 insert all figures (DEFAULT)
-E0 no figures in the RTF
-E1 insert figures having RTF-supported formats
-E2 convert and insert unsupported figure formats
-E4 insert only filenames for supported file formats
-E8 insert only filenames for unsupported file formats

-f use fields

-f0 do not use fields in RTF. This is handy when primitive RTF editors are being used to view the RTF output.
-f1 use fields for equations but not
