GIF graphics from DVI files as obtained from TeX and its relatives. </p> <p>If GIF support is enabled, GIF output is chosen by using the ‘<samp>dvigif</samp>’ binary or with the ‘<samp>--gif</samp>’ option. </p> <p>It is intended to produce anti-aliased screen-resolution images as fast as is possible. The target audience is people who need to generate and regenerate many images again and again. The primary target is the preview-latex (X)Emacs package, a package to preview formulas from within (X)Emacs. Yes, you get to see your formulas in the (X)Emacs buffer, see <a href="http://www.gnu.org/software/auctex/preview-latex.html">http://www.gnu.org/software/auctex/preview-latex.html</a>. </p> <p>Another example is WeBWorK, an internet-based method for delivering homework problems to students over the internet, giving students instant feedback as to whether or not their answers are correct, see <a href="http://webwork.math.rochester.edu">http://webwork.math.rochester.edu</a>. </p> <p>A more recent addition to the dvipng-using applications out there is MediaWiki, the software behind Wikipedia and many other wikis out there. Dvipng is used to render mathematical formulae from version 1.8.0 of MediaWiki, see <a href="http://www.mediawiki.org">http://www.mediawiki.org</a>. </p> <p>Other applications may also benefit, like web applications as latex2html and WYSIWYG editors like LyX. </p> <p>The benefits of ‘<samp>dvipng</samp>’/‘<samp>dvigif</samp>’ include </p> <ul> <li> Speed. It is a very fast bitmap-rendering code for DVI files, which makes it suitable for generating large amounts of images on-the-fly, as needed in preview-latex, WeBWorK and others. </li><li> It does not read the postamble, so it can be started before TeX finishes. There is a ‘<samp>--follow</samp>’ switch that makes dvipng wait at end-of-file for further output, unless it finds the POST marker that indicates the end of the DVI. </li><li> Interactive query of options. dvipng can read options interactively through stdin, and all options are usable. It is even possible to change the input file through this interface. </li><li> Supports PK, VF, PostScript Type1, and TrueType fonts, subfonts (i.e., as used in CJK-LaTeX), color specials, and inclusion of PostScript, PNG, JPEG or GIF images. </li><li> and more... </li></ul> <hr> <span id="Installation"></span><div class="header"> <p> Next: <a href="#Basic-usage" accesskey="n" rel="next">Basic usage</a>, Previous: <a href="#Introduction" accesskey="p" rel="prev">Introduction</a>, Up: <a href="#Top" accesskey="u" rel="up">Top</a> [<a href="#SEC_Contents" title="Table of contents" rel="contents">Contents</a>][<a href="#Index" title="Index" rel="index">Index</a>]</p> </div> <span id="Installation-1"></span><h2 class="chapter">2 Installation</h2> <span id="index-configuration_002c-of-dvipng"></span> <span id="index-compilation"></span> <span id="index-installation_002c-of-dvipng"></span> <p>Installing dvipng should be simple: merely <code>./configure</code>, <code>make</code>, and <code>make install</code>. </p> <table class="menu" border="0" cellspacing="0"> <tr><td align="left" valign="top">• <a href="#Prerequisites" accesskey="1">Prerequisites</a></td><td> </td><td align="left" valign="top"> </td></tr> <tr><td align="left" valign="top">• <a href="#Configure" accesskey="2">Configure</a></td><td> </td><td align="left" valign="top"> </td></tr> <tr><td align="left" valign="top">• <a href="#Build_002finstall" accesskey="3">Build/install</a></td><td> </td><td align="left" valign="top"> </td></tr> <tr><td align="left" valign="top">• <a href="#Installation-outside-the-texmf-tree" accesskey="4">Installation outside the texmf tree</a></td><td> </td><td align="left" valign="top"> </td></tr> <tr><td align="left" valign="top">• <a href="#Advice-for-non_002dprivileged-users" accesskey="5">Advice for non-privileged users</a></td><td> </td><td align="left" valign="top"> </td></tr> </table> <hr> <span id="Prerequisites"></span><div class="header"> <p> Next: <a href="#Configure" accesskey="n" rel="next">Configure</a>, Up: <a href="#Installation" accesskey="u" rel="up">Installation</a> [<a href="#SEC_Contents" title="Table of contents" rel="contents">Contents</a>][<a href="#Index" title="Index" rel="index">Index</a>]</p> </div> <span id="Prerequisites-1"></span><h3 class="section">2.1 Prerequisites</h3> <ul> <li> The GD Graphics Draw library, libgd <p>The drawing library ‘<samp>libgd</samp>’ is necessary, and is downloadable at <a href="https://bitbucket.org/libgd/gd-libgd/downloads">https://bitbucket.org/libgd/gd-libgd/downloads</a>, and there are binary packages for most operating systems from their respective distributors. In any case, the library installs using ‘<samp>autoconf</samp>’ so it should not be difficult for you to install it from source, and then proceed with installing dvipng. </p> </li><li> The path-searching library kpathsea <p>Kpathsea is most likely included in your LaTeX installation, but it may happen that ./configure does not find it; see below. If you do not have it, download it from <a href="http://www.ctan.org">http://www.ctan.org</a> and compile it. I have no experience with this, so I cannot help much here. </p> </li><li> The font-rendering library FreeType 2 <p>While not strictly necessary, a recent FreeType 2 is recommended since dvipng currently will produce better-quality images when this library is available. To take advantage of this, you should have at least FreeType 2.1.9. </p> <p>FreeType 2 will enable direct support for PostScript and TrueType fonts, so that dvipng will not need to generate bitmapped variants on disk of the TeX fonts since modern TeX distributions include PostScript versions of them. Then, you can render images at different (and unusual) resolutions without cluttering the disk with lots of bitmapped fonts. </p> <p>Finally, it will enable subfont support in dvipng. That is, if you want to render CJK-LaTeX characters, you must have FreeType 2 installed. </p> </li><li> libpng and libz <p>To be able to compress and write PNG files to disk, dvipng (or really libgd) uses libpng which in turn uses libz. These should be available on any modern system, if not, download them and install them. </p> </li><li> The <code>texinfo</code> package <p>This is needed for building the documentation. </p></li></ul> <hr> <span id="Configure"></span><div class="header"> <p> Next: <a href="#Build_002finstall" accesskey="n" rel="next">Build/install</a>, Previous: <a href="#Prerequisites" accesskey="p" rel="prev">Prerequisites</a>, Up: <a href="#Installation" accesskey="u" rel="up">Installation</a> [<a href="#SEC_Contents" title="Table of contents" rel="contents">Contents</a>][<a href="#Index" title="Index" rel="index">Index</a>]</p> </div> <span id="Configure-1"></span><h3 class="section">2.2 Configure</h3> <p>The first step is to configure the source code, telling it where various files will be.

In that way, resulting binaries will be installed under the <samp>bin</samp> subdirectory of your home directory, manual pages under <samp>man</samp> and so on. That way, it is reasonably easy to maintain a bunch of additional packages, since the prefix argument is supported by most <samp>configure</samp> scripts. </p> <p>You’ll have to add something like <samp>/home/myself/bin</samp> to your <code>PATH</code> shell variable, if it isn’t there already, and similarly set the <code>INFOPATH</code> and <code>MANPATH</code> variables to be able to access the documentation. </p> <hr> <span id="Basic-usage"></span><div class="header"> <p> Next: <a href="#Command_002dline-options" accesskey="n" rel="next">Command-line options</a>, Previous: <a href="#Installation" accesskey="p" rel="prev">Installation</a>, Up: <a href="#Top" accesskey="u" rel="up">Top</a> [<a href="#SEC_Contents" title="Table of contents" rel="contents">Contents</a>][<a href="#Index" title="Index" rel="index">Index</a>]</p> </div> <span id="Basic-usage-of-dvipng"></span><h2 class="chapter">3 Basic usage of dvipng</h2> <span id="index-invoking-dvipng"></span> <p>To use dvipng at its simplest, simply type </p> <div class="example"> <pre class="example">dvipng foo </pre></div> <p>where <samp>foo.dvi</samp> is the output of TeX that you want to convert to PNG format.

Otherwise, dvipng will use bitmapped (PK) fonts, and if you use PK fonts that have not been used on your system before, they may be automatically generated; this process can take a few minutes, so progress reports appear by default. The next time the same font is used, it will have been saved on disk, so rendering will go much faster. (If dvipng tries to endlessly generate the same fonts over and over again, something is wrong.

You just divide your image width by 100: a 135 pixel wide image at 100 dpi will take up 1.35 inches. If you want 200 dpi you divide by 200, and so on. Simple, eh?

Rendering raw PostScript specials is done on top of the page by including a transparent image generated by the ‘<samp>pngalpha</samp>’ device in GhostScript (automatically selecting ‘<samp>truecolor</samp>’ mode in dvipng). </p> <p>Included PostScript headers are respected, and if the header ‘<samp>tex.pro</samp>’ is included, dvipng also throws in ‘<samp>color.pro</samp>’ and ‘<samp>special.pro</samp>’. The package ‘<samp>xcolor</samp>’ includes its own headers with color names, and this is not only kept as a PostScript header, but is also read and interpreted by dvipng itself. An attempt is also made to respect the PGF header. The non-rendering specials from ‘<samp>hyperref</samp>’ are handled via some heuristics and do not give an error. </p> <p>Really rendering and moving things with raw PostScript specials is more troublesome. The \rotatebox macro serves as a good example. The dvips driver of the graphicx package surrounds DVI glyphs with PostScript code so that after conversion by dvips, the glyphs (now themselves in PostScript) will be rotated in the desired way. dvipng does not handle this, at present. An attempt has been made to handle the rendering specials output by PGF (tikz), and also PSTricks. Some things work, but others do not. This is especially clear when mixing PostScript and DVI rendering commands such as glyphs. dvipng cannot at present detect if PostScript code moves ‘<samp>currentpoint</samp>’ or rotates the frame since GhostScript does not return such information. A recommendation would be to produce images from these packages as EPS files and include them into your document in the standard manner. </p> <p>Another way to handle this would be to use a slower fallback (with dvips and gs, for example). If you want to disable raw PostScript handling in dvipng, use the switch ‘<samp>--norawps</samp>’. This switch turns off the internal call to GhostScript intended to display these raw PostScript specials. Further, when dvipng encounters raw PostScript and the gs call is turned off, it gives a warning. It is now possible to use the switch ‘<samp>--picky</samp>’ to disable page rendering of pages with warnings, and use the slower fallback for these pages. </p> <hr> <span id="Color"></span><div class="header"> <p> Next: <a href="#Diagnosing-problems" accesskey="n" rel="next">Diagnosing problems</a>, Previous: <a href="#Graphics" accesskey="p" rel="prev">Graphics</a>, Up: <a href="#Top" accesskey="u" rel="up">Top</a> [<a href="#SEC_Contents" title="Table of contents" rel="contents">Contents</a>][<a href="#Index" title="Index" rel="index">Index</a>]</p> </div> <span id="Color-1"></span><h2 class="chapter">6 Color</h2> <p>To support color, dvipng recognizes a certain set of specials as generated by the ‘<samp>color</samp>’ and ‘<samp>xcolor</samp>’ style files.

The by-value spec starts with the name of a color model (one of ‘<samp>rgb</samp>’, ‘<samp>hsb</samp>’, ‘<samp>cmy</samp>’, ‘<samp>cmyk</samp>’, or ‘<samp>gray</samp>’) followed by the appropriate number of parameters. Thus, the color specification ‘<samp>rgb 0.3 0.4 0.5</samp>’ would correspond to the color that is ‘<samp>0.3 0.4 0.5</samp>’ in its red, blue and green values. The color model used internally in dvipng is ‘<samp>RGB</samp>’ (discretized to 256 levels), for details on the formulas used in conversion, see the ‘<samp>xcolor</samp>’ documentation. </p> <p>By-name color specifications are single (case-dependent) words and are compared with color names defined in ‘<samp>dvipsnam.def</samp>’ (from the ‘<samp>graphics</samp>’ bundle), ‘<samp>svgnam.def</samp>’ and ‘<samp>xcolor.sty</samp>’ (from the ‘<samp>xcolor</samp>’ bundle). See the ‘<samp>xcolor</samp>’ documentation for a list of names and the corresponding colors. </p> <p>On the command-line, the name ‘<samp>Transparent</samp>’ can also be used as an argument to ‘<samp>--bg</samp>’ to choose transparent background.

The last ‘<samp>background</samp>’ special on a page is the one that gets used, and is used for the whole of the page image. (This is possible because the prescan phase of dvipng notices all of the color specials so that the appropriate information can be written out during the second phase.) </p> <p>The ‘<samp>color</samp>’ special itself has three forms. The first is just ‘<samp>color</samp>’ followed by a color specification. In this case, the current global color is set to that color; the color stack must be empty when such a command is executed. </p> <p>The second form is ‘<samp>color push</samp>’ followed by a color specification. This saves the current color on the color stack and sets the color to be that given by the color specification. This is the most common way to set a color. </p> <p>The final form of the ‘<samp>color</samp>’ special is just ‘<samp>color pop</samp>’, with no color specification; this says to pop the color last pushed on the color stack from the color stack and set the current color to be that color. </p> <p>dvipng correctly handles these color specials across pages, even when the pages are rendered repeatedly or in reverse order. </p> <hr> <span id="Diagnosing-problems"></span><div class="header"> <p> Next: <a href="#Credits" accesskey="n" rel="next">Credits</a>, Previous: <a href="#Color" accesskey="p" rel="prev">Color</a>, Up: <a href="#Top" accesskey="u" rel="up">Top</a> [<a href="#SEC_Contents" title="Table of contents" rel="contents">Contents</a>][<a href="#Index" title="Index" rel="index">Index</a>]</p> </div> <span id="Diagnosing-problems-1"></span><h2 class="chapter">7 Diagnosing problems</h2> <span id="index-problems"></span> <span id="index-trouble"></span> <span id="index-debugging-1"></span> <p>You’ve gone through all the trouble of installing dvipng, carefully read all the instructions in this manual, and still can’t get something to work.
