NAME

       bib2pdf - script to convert BibTeX format files to PDF format files

SYNOPSIS

       bib2pdf <input.bib> <output.pdf>

DESCRIPTION

       bib2pdf  is  a  script  to  convert  a  BibTeX file into a PDF file. The conversion is performed by first
       creating a small LaTeX file in which all the bibliographical records are inserted.  That  LaTeX  file  is
       then  latex-compiled  into  a DVI file which, in turn, gets converted into a PDF file using dvipdfm. Note
       that the script might be configured to use pdflatex instead of latex, thus producing the PDF output  file
       with no extra conversion step.

       This script is part of the cb2bib package and is located at /usr/share/cb2bib/c2btools/bib2pdf.
