# This script takes a LaTeX file and generates a collection of
# png or ppm image files, one per previewed snippet.

# Pre-requisites:
# * A latex executable;
# * preview.sty;
# * dvipng;
# * pngtoppm (if outputing ppm format images).

# preview.sty and dvipng are part of the preview-latex project
# http://preview-latex.sourceforge.net/

# preview.sty can alternatively be obtained from
# CTAN/support/preview-latex/

# Example usage:
# lyxpreview2bitmap.py png 0lyxpreview.tex 128 000000 faf0e6

# This script takes five arguments:
# FORMAT:   The desired output format. Either 'png' or 'ppm'.
# TEXFILE:  the name of the .tex file to be converted.
# DPI:      a scale factor, used to ascertain the resolution of the
#           generated image which is then passed to gs.
# FG_COLOR: the foreground color as a hexadecimal string, eg '000000'.
# BG_COLOR: the background color as a hexadecimal string, eg 'faf0e6'.

# Decomposing TEXFILE's name as DIR/BASE.tex, this script will,
# if executed successfully, leave in DIR:
# * a (possibly large) number of image files with names
#   like BASE[0-9]+.png
# * a file BASE.metrics, containing info needed by LyX to position
#   the images correctly on the screen.
