NAME
       latex2png - manual page for latex2png 1.1

DESCRIPTION
       latex2png -- Convert a LaTeX file to a PNG image

       USAGE:  latex2png  [-d  density] [-h] [-k] [-c] [-g] [-m] [-H home dir]
       file[.tex|.eps]

       The latex2png command converts a LaTeX file  into  a  PNG  image.   The
       first  page  is  translated  into an image at the specified resolution.
       latex2png can also be used to  convert  encapsulated  postscript  (EPS)
       files to PNG images.

   OPTIONS:
       -c produce color image

       -d density
              density  is   the  number of dots per inch to use in the created
              image (default 144 dpi)

       -g produce gray images

       -h help

       -H home_dir
              home_dir is a directory to be included in search  path  (default
              is  directory  that  contains  the LaTeX file).  This is used to
              create PNG images in another directory (e.g.,  /tmp)  and  still
              allow LaTeX to find files that it needs to include.

       -k keep intermediate files (for debugging)

       -m produce monochrome (black and white) image
              (default)

       -v version

   EXAMPLES:
       latex2png -d 144 /tmp/file
              #create /tmp/file.png at 144 dpi

       latex2png file.eps
              #create file.png

       latex2png file.tex
              #create file.png via latex

       latex2png -H . /tmp/file
              #search the cwd for image files
