AFAIK, latex2html doesn't use the implementations in html.sty at all, it uses the implementations (in Perl) in html.perl. i think html.sty has 1 implementation of these commands for generating PDF, which can include hyperlinks, and another for generating anything else, which can't. > It would be nice if some of my internal and external > hyperlinks could make it into my final pdf document. > (Pdf is a preferable to postscript as the final form > of the written document, since it more universally > readable.) Has this already been implemented? you can get hyperlinks in PDF by running .tex --(pdflatex)--> .pdf where the same latex source can also be converted to HTML with .tex --(latex2html)--> .html OTOH, if you will loose the hyperlinks if run .tex --(latex)--> .dvi --(dvips)--> .ps --(ps2pdf)--> .pdf which i believe is because DVI and PostScript (unlike PDF) don't have any concept of hyperlinks - but ICBW because i don't know much about this stuff. > To what extent are latex2html and pdf-TeX compatible? as above, you can use both of them with the same source file. > Would I be able to insert my figures into my final > pdf file if I used pdf-TeX in conjunction with > latex2html? i don't know if you can do that (or if you really want to). -- Phil Lanch 0xD78D598DA6635CF32AB24593C98994B7D95B33E3 (though i can't remember the passphrase right now) _______________________________________________ latex2html mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://tug.org/mailman/listinfo/latex2html
