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 4.0 (transitional) + + Exotic symbols are translated into symbols pertaining to the + symbol font of the HTML browser, using the 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. |
