A..6.3 Initialization

File name

The file l2hconf.pm in the LATEX2HTML root directory can be used to set switches that give you fine control over how documents are processed by LATEX2HTML. If you installed from a kit other than the NRAO-specific kit on Cvsnap1, you will probably find it convenient to edit line 187 to read:

   $INIT_FILE_NAME = 'l2h.ini';

so that the program will look for an initialization file called l2h.ini in the document directory to control program settings. The default for INIT_FILE_NAME is the Unix-style .latex2html-init which does not parse well on Windows systems.

Image format

Another default worth changing in l2hconf.pm is to edit line 52 to read:

   @IMAGE_TYPES = qw(gif png);

which makes LATEX2HTML use transparent .gif files for its self-generated images. The default produces .png files that look ugly against anything but the default gray background.
