Ulli, you may not want all the customizations but the install/setup 
instructions you may find useful.  this is what is known to work on my 
system.

Regards,
Darrell

LaTeX TOOLS INSTALLATION ORDER

Note*** MiKTeX 2.4 caused problems (won't work unless LATEX_DUMP=0)
        and puts thick black underlines on some of the images.

WinEdt build 20020323 (v. 5.3)

a.  MikTeX (small package)

e.  LaTeX2HTML
        instructions below
f.  WinEdt
        use conventional "soft" wrapping
        or equivelent

LaTeX2HTML install:

1.  Expand the archive.

2.  Edit prefs.pm
    a. $prefs{'EXTRAPATH'} = 
'c:\\tex\\gs\\gs8.14\\bin;c:\\tex\\netpbm\\bin';
    b. $prefs{'PREFIX'} = 'c:\\tex\\l2h';
    c. $prefs{'TEXPATH'} = 'c:\\tex\\texmf\\tex\\l2h';
    d. $prefs{'TMPSPACE'} = 'c:\\tex\\l2htemp';

3.  Edit l2hconf.pin
    a. @IMAGE_TYPES = qw(gif png);
    b. $INIT_FILE_NAME = $ENV{'L2HINIT_NAME'} || 'l2hinit';

4.  Edit latex2html.pin.  Make the following mods marked by (dgr)
    if not already made by Ross in the source.

    a. sub default_textohtmlinfopage {
           local($_) = @_;
           local($argv) = $argv;
       # (dgr) next line remmed out to remove hyperlink to source file
       #    if (-f "../$argv") { $argv = &make_href ("../$argv", $argv, ); }

    b. sub get_date {
           local($format,$order) = @_;
           local(@lt) = localtime;
           local($d,$m,$y) = @lt[3,4,5];
       #   if ($format =~ /ISO/) {
       #       sprintf("%4d-%02d-%02d", 1900+$y, $m+1, $d);
       #   (dgr) previous 2 lines remmed out
       #   (dgr) next two lines change the date format
           if ($format =~ /ISO/) {
               sprintf("%4d/%02d/%02d", $m+1, $d, 1900+$y);
           } elsif ($format) {
        if ($order) { eval "sprintf(".$format.",".$order.")"; }
        else { sprintf($format, $d, $m+1, 1900+$y); }
           } else { sprintf("%d/%d/%d", $m+1, $d, 1900+$y); }
       }

       sub address_data {
           local($user, $date, $_);
           local($format,$order) = @_;
           # Get author, (email address) and current date.
       #    ($user = L2hos->fullname()) =~ s/,.*//;
       #   (dgr) previous line remmed out
       #   (dgr) next two lines redefine user data
           ($user = "D. Ryan");
           ($useremail = "aah at ryan-usa.com");
           ($user, &get_date($format,$order));
       }

5.  Run config.bat.  Check config.log.

6.  Run test.bat.  Check output in tests\l2htest folder.
    On Win9x, set command box to at least a 1024 environment size.
    This can be done by the properties tab for the command.com window,
    or globally by shell=d:\windows\command.com /e:1024 /p in config.sys.
    ****For NT/200x/XP, this is not necessary.

7.  Run install.bat -debug.  Note-- it may be necessary to run *all*
    latex2html jobs with the -debug switch.  Without it, you may get
    the error when converting images:

    Specified COMMAND search directory bad
    Too many parameters

    ****For NT/200x/XP, no debug switch is necessary.

8.  Rename dot.latex2html-init to l2hinit and customize as follows.
    Put this just before the ****Navigation Panel section,
    as to not be overridden prior in the file.

Subject: [l2h] Underline problem

Hello,

please help me with my problem:

I receive underlines in nearly all formulas while translating a tex
document into html. A few month ago all worked fine but now it happens
on all my computers.
I haven't changed the computer systems, it happens on different machines
with win2k and xp.

I didn't change the latex2html-Version (latex2html-2002-2-1), not the
netpbm (10.6.), have the same Perl (5.8).
My GS-Version is now newer, also the Miktex-Packages had some updates.

What could make the problem and how can I solve it?

Thanks in advance
Ulli
