Format for print vs format for screen.
There are scores of these swarming around.
URL:: http://www.cse.ohio-state.edu/~gurari/TeX4ht/mn.html Pros::
- I tried it and it sort of works (but needs tweaking)
- is stable Cons::
- docs are a bit confusing
- customization may be hard
- will need to enforce slightly stricter syntax rules than LaTeX requires. E.g, all the curlies are mandatory in "
\( T_{\mathrm{eff}} \)" - is stable (not under active development)
- forced to go latex->dvi route so PDF figs need special conversion
URL::
http://plastex.sourceforge.net/
Pros::
- modern
- clean design
- actively maintained (last release Oct 2008 as of March 2009)
- written in python, so customization should be easy for Will Cons::
- haven't tried it yet
URL:: http://hevea.inria.fr/
Pros::
- modern
- semi-actively maintained (last release August 2007 as of March 2009)
- sample output looks OK, but HTML source is a bit of a mess. Lots of nested tables.
Cons::
- written in Objective Caml
- haven't tried it yet
The rest:
latex2html:: Horrendous monolithic perl hack from the 1990s, not maintained and pretty broken
t4h:: Old, semi-commercial, and output doesn't look great
Anecdotal evidence of usage patterns should go here
