Abstract: HEVEA is a LATEX to
HTML translator.
The input language is a fairly complete subset of LATEX2e (old
LATEX style is also accepted) and the
output language is HTML that is (hopefully) correct with respect to
version 3.2.
Exotic symbols are translated into symbols
pertaining to the symbol font of the HTML browser, using the
non-standard FACE
attribute of the FONT
tag.
This allows the translation to HTML of quite a lot of the symbols used in
LATEX.
HEVEA understands LATEX macro definitions. Simple user style
files are understood with little or no modifications.
Furthermore, HEVEA customization is done by writing LATEX code.
HEVEA is written in Objective Caml, as many lexers. It is
quite fast and flexible.
Using HEVEA it is possible to translate large documents such
as manuals, books, etc. very quickly. All documents are
translated as one single HTML file. Then, the output file can be cut into
smaller files, using the companion program HACHA.
Information on HEVEA is available at http://para.inria.fr/~maranget/hevea.
