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 egin{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   --qtop-
		 tion='-style=Plastique'  Note that if qt-option begins with a '-', then it must be appended to the long '--qtoption=' syntax with
		 the equal sign.
