Post Installation Individual Preference Configuration

There are a great many options and default settings you can change to personalize the way LATEX2HTML works. Go to the newly installed C:\texmf\l2h directory and you will find a file named l2hconf.pm which you can open in your favorite editor (or Notepad as was done with prefs.pm above). Slowly scrolling down through the file you will see the authors have included comments explaining which lines can be changed to suit the needs of individual users. One change that you should make, if you intend to convert a document with mathematics, is the options line for DVIP (line 136). Simply remove ``-Ppdf'' in order to convert documents which contain mathematics. Otherwise, the mathematics will contain a large, unsightly black bar below it or to the right of it when converted to HTML. It is recommended that you read the LaTeX2HTML manual before making other changes - so that you will know what those changes do. Each installation of LATEX2HTML has a TeX file named manual.tex located at C:\texmf\l2h\docs so you supposedly can create a copy of the manual using LaTeX or simply read it in your LaTeX editor (TeXnicCenter). However, many have posted issues with the manual.tex file in various forums / discussions and I myself could not get LaTeX to produce the Adobe.pdf document that is why the version I downloaded is available here: Until next time, happy TeX-ing...
