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.
