HTML export: some small problems...

2011-09-15 Thread Murat Yildizoglu
Hi,

I am trying the HTML export possibilities of LyX. I have the last
version of Elyxer installed on my Mac (OSX 10.6 French) and I use Lyx
2.0.1.

I am preparing a page where I would like to set the text colour and
use an horizontal rule in some places.

I used the Document Properties/Coulours tab to fix the implicit colour
of text in my document, but when the file is exported to HTML by
Elyxer, the texte is black (the same is also true for LyxHTML export).

I have inserted an horizontal rule in the page, but I get in the HTML
the Lyx code instead of the rule:

\begin_inset CommandInset lineLatexCommand ruleoffset 0.5exwidth
100col%height 1pt\end_inset 

Am I doing something stupid, or am I demanding too much from Elyxer?

I Have used Latex2HTML under Linux some years ago and this kind of
cosmetics was a piece of cake for it... I have never used it under OSX
and I like the HTML generated by Elyxer otherwise.

I know that I can correct these problems by hand or by CSS editing,
but would like to know if I can handle them directly in Lyx, instead
of having to da another step of conversion (especially because I am
using Lyx to quickly setup a web page from existing material in Latex
and Lyx. Yes, I am very late on this task, and trying to catch the gap
:-)  ).

Regards,

Murat

(after downloading tex2ht, which includes htlatex), but setting it up manually
involved simply copying the Windows configuration:

these settings:

From format: Latex (plain)

Converter: htlatex $$i
Extra flag: needaux

Maximum age (in days): 180

Also, to make the images larger I modified tex4ht.env (in my Fedora 14 distro,

latex2html equivalent of Windows HTML export?

2011-05-05 Thread Andrew
Hi there,

I use Lyx on both Linux and Windows, and I have tried all the HTML export
options, including Elyxer.

I like the Windows HTML export option the best, and I want to be able to produce
HTML on Linux the same as the Windows HTML export does.

I assume the Windows HTML export uses latex2html with a bunch of options.  If
so, does anybody know which options it uses?

Is the Windows export method listed somewhere?

I'm sure if I put a lot of time into customizing latex2html I'd get output
that's on part with Windows export, but the next couple weeks I'm tight on time.

The closest I've been able to come to producing Windows export results with
latex2html still has the following undesirable features:

(1) eqnarray images are not centered
(2) horizontal rules are not produced
(3) quotation marks look clunky like Tex quotes, not nice pretty ones.

Thanks very much in advance!

Is the Windows export method listed somewhere?

I'm sure if I put a lot of time into customizing latex2html I'd get output
that's on part with Windows export, but the next couple weeks I'm tight on time.

The closest I've been able to come to producing Windows export results with
latex2html still has the following undesirable features:

(1) eqnarray images are not centered
(2) horizontal rules are not produced
(3) quotation marks look clunky like Tex quotes, not nice pretty ones.

Thanks very much in advance!

Hi,

I'm not sure what you mean by windows HTML export but I wouldn't 
assume it's latex2html. You can look it up for yourself by firing up LyX 
and going to the menu Tools  Preferences  File Handling  Converters. 
On my windows box I see that the LaTeX to HTML converter is htlatex.


To get the same HTML output on Linux it might be as simple as installing 
htlatex (or whatever converter is set up on your windows box), running 
the configure.py script (Tools  Reconfigure), and restarting LyX.

latex2html equivalent of Windows HTML export?

2011-05-05 Thread Andrew
Hi there,

I use Lyx on both Linux and Windows, and I have tried all the HTML export
options, including Elyxer.

I like the Windows HTML export option the best, and I want to be able to produce
HTML on Linux the same as the Windows HTML export does.

I assume the Windows HTML export uses latex2html with a bunch of options.  If
so, does anybody know which options it uses?

Is the Windows export method listed somewhere?

html export - several files.

2009-04-29 Thread Rudi Gaelzer
I'm trying to export a book to html.
If I use the default converter (htlatex) with no addtional configuration, it 
will create a single gigantic file.

However, I would like to export to several files, each containing a single 
chapter.

I went to Tools - Preferences... - File Handling - Converters - LaTeX 
(plain) - HTML and tried to change the command line:

htlatex $$i
to
htlatex $$i html,2,info

but it won't save the change.  Perhaps there's bug on the preferences dialog?
Is there a way to make this change manually?

Thank you.

HTML-Export on Windows

2008-07-05 Thread Matthias Diehl

Hello,

think it would be nice, to sum up how a LyX-file can be exported to HTML  
under WIN, it works

difficultly in my case (LyX 1.5.5):

Method 1 (long-winded if there are many pictures - has anybody a better  
idea?!?):

But: It produces a good output!
- make sure, that every picture is available in a .jpg or .png - format  
(Maybe it's enough

  to have a format that can be read by lyx and a html-browser)
- Export the LyX-file via Latex (Plain)
- Copy the resulting .tex-file (filename.tex) into an extra-directory
- move in the commandline of Windows (german: Eingabeaufforderung) to  
that extra-directory

- type htlatex filename.tex
- Open the resulting html-file (filename.html) in a browser
Problem: the quality of the pictures may be worse than the original ones,  
so do this:
- Open the sourcecode of the filename.html in a text-editor (parallel to  
the browser)

- Copy the original PNG- or JPG-pictures into the created extra-directory
- Find the names of the pictures in the browser and replace these names  
with the name

  or the original picture (for all pictures)
- After finishing save the modified sourcecode under a different filename
  (filename-modified.html - just for safety)
- Open the modified .html-file with the browser: The quality of the  
pictures should

  match the quality of the originals now.

{Method 2 (does'nt work in my case, the pictures and converted formulas  
are not displayed

because the pictures seem to be saved nowhere):
Convert with LyX  (htlatex $$iwith additional flag needaux)}

{Method 3 (does'nt work in my case because the latex2html-package can not  
be found):

Convert with LyX
(latex2html -no_subdir -no_navigation -split 0 -show_section_numbers $$i
with additional flag needaux)}

I found the last method in a (german) LyX-Manual - maybe that should be  
updated.


WOULD BE VERY NICE, IF SOMEONE COULD SUM UP HIS SUCCESSFUL METHODS TO  
CONVERT INTO HTML
UNDER WINDOWS! ANY HINTS TO INCLUDE URLS (probably it's written somewhere,  
but I didn't

look for it until now)?

Thanks!

Given the lack of response I assume there is no easy answer to this,  
however, with help elsewhere it seems that this can be done with  
tex4ht which is part of the Mactex distribution.


This is done with one of the following commands

1\Picture[replacement-for-textual-browser]{file-name attributes}
2	\Picture+[replacement-for-text-browsers]{file-name attributes} 
content\EndPicture
3	\Picture*[replacement-for-text-browsers]{file-name attributes}

This leads me to additional questions.

1. what program does lyx use for the HTML conversion (on the Mac), I  
presume it tells me on the wiki somewhere but I can't find it.


2. I have tried several ways of using command 1 above to try and add  
the alt text into the graphics latex options, but get compile errors.  
the commands are obviously meant for tex4ht, but I thought I would  
give it a try..

2008-03-01 Thread Graham Smith
Given the lack of response I assume there is no easy answer to this,  
however, with help elsewhere it seems that this can be done with  
tex4ht which is part of the Mactex distribution.


This is done with one of the following commands

1\Picture[replacement-for-textual-browser]{file-name attributes}
2	\Picture+[replacement-for-text-browsers]{file-name attributes} 
content\EndPicture
3	\Picture*[replacement-for-text-browsers]{file-name attributes} 
content\EndPicture


This leads me to additional questions.

1. what program does lyx use for the HTML conversion (on the Mac), I  
presume it tells me on the wiki somewhere but I can't find it.


2. I have tried several ways of using command 1 above to try and add  
the alt text into the graphics latex options, but get compile errors.  
the commands are obviously meant for tex4ht, but I thought I would  
give it a try..


3. Assuming tex4ht isn't one of the two HTML export options in Lyx,  
can I add it as an export option menu item.


Thanks,

Graham

OK, sorry about all these posts, but after rooting around I see that  
Lyx is using tex4ht, so it seems what I need help with is how to add  
the code into the lyx document so it adds the alt text when exporting  
to html.


Thanks.

Re: HTML export, hyperlink doesn't work in LYX 1.4.3

2006-10-10 Thread Pavel Sanda
 I have compiled LYX 1.4.3 on a redhat Linux machine from source, and have
 deleted my previous $home/.lyx directory so it should be like a fresh
 installation. The problem is I found that when having inserted some URLs by
 Insert-URL..., then View-HTML or export to HTML, the URL never got an
 underline, nor is it clickable.
 
 And I found checking the box Generate hyperlink when inserting URL has no
 effect on the result. No matter I did it or not, the output Latex file
 doesn't change, it always produces a \url{my inserted url string}.
 
 I found an ugly fix that first write \usepackage{html} in document preamble,
 and then insert a Latex code box(ERT), writing in it \htmlurl{my url}{desc.
 for the link} will produce a clickable hyperlink. However it's so ugly and
 it looks like that it should be the intended behavior Insert-URL... should
 produce.
 
 Is this a common problem, so a bug in 1.4.3? Or is my setting wrong?

originaldir flag. So, simply delete the originaldir flag and send to

not copied.

This is only true for HTML (whatever the export tool used, htlatex, latex2html, 
and I guess hevea).
Use of htlatex to View and Export to OpenOffice works because all the files are 
in the output file
(which is an archive in fact).

So I see two ways out:
 - either there is a way to specify the file extensions which should be copied 
for every kind of
 Export (I don't know which coding is required to do so, may be the flags can 
be used here);
 - either a request is made to Eitan Gurari for an addition output file 
containing an archive
 of the output files (extension zip or better htl ?). Same request for other 
HTML exporters, 
 unless this is already available (it's not un latex2html).
 
Are there entries in bugzilla about all this ? Should I file one ?

No, not on Windows, I had tried that, but thanks for the advice.
I haven't tried it on Cygwin yet which is closer to Solaris.

In addition, it is not needed: from what I see in the calling shell, the 
necessary runs
are made (and AFAIR, by htlatex, not by LyX - in fact, htlatex runs 4 times, 
regardless
of the status os the aux/bbl files, because it adds its own sty file to the 
original tex file).
This is different with latex2html: the wrapper I use for tex files makes the 
necessary
runs before calling l2h.

 This seems broken on Solaris, and possibly on Windows (check in this 
 thread).

I checked the LyX sources and found that what I was trying to achieve
through the scripts is the same thing you obtain when you *omit* the
originaldir flag. So, simply delete the originaldir flag and send to
the bit bucket those scripts ;-)

On Solaris (but is seems that issues ares related on Windows), I had to remove 
also
needaux, then View-HTML works as expected.

However, then Export-HTML is broken: I get myfile.html all right in the 
original dir,
but all the ancillary files (myfile.css, myfile1x.png, myfile2x.png, etc.) are 
not copied.

This is only true for HTML (whatever the export tool used, htlatex, latex2html, 
and I guess hevea).
Use of htlatex to View and Export to OpenOffice works because all the files are 
in the output file
(which is an archive in fact).

So I see two ways out:
 - either there is a way to specify the file extensions which should be copied 
for every kind of
 Export (I don't know which coding is required to do so, may be the flags can 
be used here);
 - either a request is made to Eitan Gurari for an addition output file 
containing an archive
 of the output files (extension zip or better htl ?). Same request for other 
HTML exporters, 
 unless this is already available (it's not un latex2html).
 
Are there entries in bugzilla about all this ? Should I file one ?

No, not on Windows, I had tried that, but thanks for the advice.
I haven't tried it on Cygwin yet which is closer to Solaris.
Also you probably use latex2html?

I checked, this has been discussed long ago (bug 643)
http://bugzilla.lyx.org/show_bug.cgi?id=643
I wonder if the extra flag come from this discussion, as use of
originaldir make View behave like Export here (but it copies also
the htlatex temporary files, this is not appropriate).

Honestly I am not sure that this is not a htlatex bug rather than

TechTonics [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes:

 I'm surprised Html view works for you for Cygwin because I
 think (thought) it was LyX not the Cygwin or Win configuration.

The problem is that LyX calls htlatex with a full path and does not
change the current dir to the dir containing the file to be converted.
Please find below two scripts htlatex and htlatex.bat. The first
one is for Cygwin and you can put it in /usr/local/bin. The second
(less refined ;-)) one is for a native LyX and should be put somewhere
in the PATH ahead of the miktex bin dir (LyXDir/latextools is a good
choice). You should now have no problems with View-Html ;-)
