images

SYNOPSIS

pdftohtml [options] <PDF-file> [<HTML-file> <XML-file>]

DESCRIPTION

This manual page documents briefly the pdftohtml command. This
manual page was written for the Debian GNU/Linux distribution because
the original program does not have a manual page.

generates its output in the current working directory. If PDF-file
is '-', it reads the PDF file from stdin.
