DESCRIPTION
This manual page documents briefly the klatexformula program. klatexformula provides a GUI to easily get an image from a LaTeX formula or equation. It can alos be used via commandline using the options below.
OPTIONS
- -i,--input file
- Specifies a file to read latex input from.
- -l,--latexinput expression
- Specifies the LaTeX code of an equation to render.
- -o,--output file
- Specifies to write the output image (obtained from equation given by --input or --latexinput) to file or standard output.
- -F,--format format
- Specifies the format the output should be written in. By default, the format is guessed from file name extension and defaults to PNG.
- -f,--fgcolor '#xxxxxx'
- Specifies a color (in web #RRGGBB hex format) to use for foreground color. Don't forget to escape the '#' to prevent the shell from interpreting it as a comment.
- -b,--bgcolor '#xxxxxx'
- Specifies a color (in web #RRGGBB hex format, or '-' for transparent) to use as background color (defaults to transparent).
- -X,--dpi N
- Use N dots per inch (DPI) when converting latex output to image. Defaults to 1200 (high-resolution image).
- -m,--mathmode expression containing '...'
- Specifies which LaTeX math mode to use, if any. The termument to this option is any string containing "...", which will be replaced by the equation itself. Defaults to "\[ ... \]"
- -p,--preamble LaTeX code
- Any LaTeX code that will be inserted before \begin{document}. Useful for including custom packages with \usepackage{...}.
- -q,--quiet
- Disable console output of warnings and errors.
- --lborderoffset N,--tborderoffset N,--rborderoffset N,--bborderoffset N
-
Include a mtermin of N postscript points on left, top, right, or bottom mtermin
respectively.
- --tempdir /path/to/temp/dir
- Specify the directory in which KLatexFormula will write temporary files. Defaults to a system-specific temporary directory like "/tmp/".
- --latex latex executable
-
- --dvips dvips executable
-
- --gs gs executable
-
- --epstopdf epstopdf executable
-
Specifiy the executable for latex, dvips, gs or epstopdf. By default, they
are searched for in $PATH and/or in common system directories.
- -h,--help
- Display this help text and exit.
- -V,--version
- Display KLatexFormula version information and exit.
- -Q,--qtoption qt-option
-
Specify a Qt-Specific option. For example, to launch KLatexFormula in
Plastique GUI style, use:
klatexformula --qtoption='-style=Plastique'
Note that if qt-option begins with a '-', then it must be appended to the
long '--qtoption=' syntax with the equal sign.
