[OS X TeX] LaTeX2html Basics?

[Richard J Benish]

I thought I'd try some of these suggestions, but I'm not getting 
things to work as hoped.

The SimpleTeX4ht works well for converting text. And it will even 
nicely create a separate page for each LaTeX document Section. But 
I'm not getting anything at all for my equations. Am I missing 
something or is this all it is designed to do? (I haven't found any 
documentation addressing this question.)

The documentation on HeVeA gives the impression that converting and 
maintaining the integrity of  equations is one of its selling points. 
But the "Installation" and "Principles" sections are clearly not 
intended for simple minds like my own. Are there alternatives to 
HeVeA that come with user-friendly instructions, or is this the only 
tool available? If it's the only tool available, any advice on how a 
non-geek might learn to install and use it without too much pain?

Thank you very much.
