Conversion options with RTFTOHTML

When the RTFTOHTML programme (from now on referred to as "r2h") is run with no filename, the following message containing a list of the command line options which define the form of the output of the programme:
Options may be:

-c


generate a Table of Contents page


-F


use frames (req. -c and Netscape 2.0 or compatible)


-G


write no graphics files


-h[n]


split output at headings (at the n'th level)


-i


imbed graphics


-N file


read navigation panel from "file"


-o file


write output to "file"


-P ext


use "ext" as extension for external graphic files


-s


use short filenames when splitting


-t


list external references on top of page


-T title


use "title" as the document title


-V


print version nuber of rtftohtml (only)


-x


create an Index (if there are index entries)


-X text


use "text" as the text for index anchors (e.g. ·)



If no parameters are used, a single page of HTML output, with embedded tables of contents, is produced. Other hyperdocument formats are produced using specific parametrisations. It is very convenient to make copies of the batch file, each with a desktop icon, and each with different parametrisations. To do this, make copies of the batch file, load them into the Notepad editor, and modify each of them as follows:
1. Look for the following line:
%RTFLIBDIR%\R2Hw95.exe "%1"
2. Change the line with the required parameters.
Useful parameters are:

Single page


%RTFLIBDIR%\R2Hw95.exe "%1"


Standard hypertext


%RTFLIBDIR%\R2Hw95.exe -c -F -h6 -i "%1"


Contents frame


%RTFLIBDIR%\R2Hw95.exe -c -h -i "%1"
