bg5latex file.tex bg5pdflatex file.tex etc. DESCRIPTION
This manual page briefly documents the different *latex batch files that come with the CJK LaTeX macro. The *latex commands are shell scripts that will convert a (Big5(+), GBK or SJIS encoded) .tex file in a .cjk file using the respective *conv command resulting in a .cjk file, and will then run (pdf)latex on the .cjk file. If you use Big5+ encoding, then use bg5+latex or bg5+pdflatex. If you use CEF macro's in your Big5 or SJIS encoded file, use cef5latex or cefslatex resp. instead. If it's in plain ASCII, use ceflatex. If you use GNU/Emacs (>=20), you don't have to use any of these commands: just put the Lisp file "cjk-enc.el" in Emacs' load-path, load the library "cjk-enc" and run "M-x cjk-write-file" to create a .cjk file. Then process the .cjk file with latex or pdflatex. SEE ALSO
bg5conv(1), bg5+conv(1), cef5conv(1), cefconv(1), cefsconv(1), extconv(1), sjisconv(1), the CJK documentation files in /usr/share/doc/latex-cjk-common/. AVAILABILITY
The *latex scripts are part of the CJK macro package for LaTeX 2e available at the CTAN hosts and its mirrors, and available for Debian under latex-cjk-chinese and latex-cjk-japanese. AUTHOR
