-charsetCZ
    Switch internal WordPerfect char set to keybcs.

-cjHebrew
    Allow Hebrew font translation.

-cp-xxx
    switch output code table (LaTeX code page) to xxx. There are currently supported these code pages: 852 (ISO8); 895 (Kamenicky); 1250 (Microsoft Windows); ISO8859-2; 866; 1251; KOI8R; UTF8

-cp-styles
    This feature causes writing special styles for given codepages.

    Extract images into separate files.

-fancyhdr
    Use package fancyhdr.sty for headers and footers.

-fig-output-dir
    Use this directory for storing images. Prefer relative path. The relative path is related to output .tex file. Default value='.'.

-fix-spaces
    Try to fix more spaces by ~. This might by userfull when spacess fills some space (e.g. in the table).

-force-xxx
    WP2LaTeX has sophisticaded way how to autodetect file format of given document. Some file formats like WP4.x could not be fully detected. Turning this parameter on switch to the selected conversion module in the case when autodetection do not find any appropriate file format. xxx stands for conversion module shortcut. These are WP3.x, WP4.x, WP5.x, WP6.x and even several non WP like abiword, Accent, MTEFF, OLE Stream, HTML, RTF, T602, UNICODE and WORD. Type Wp2LaTeX -v to obtain list of them. (e.g. If you have WP4.x documents it is a good idea to use -force-WP4.x switch.)

-FORCE-xxx
    This argument turns off any autodetection and enforces using of a given conversion module. Use it only if you are sure about it and expect troubles, because your file might be corrupted.

-fontenc-T1
    Use package fontenc.sty [T1] with additional characters. Available for LaTeX 2.0e.

-graphics
    Use style graphics.sty for Postscript images.
     This setting turns off any other setting for postscript images
     (e.g. -input-PS).

-graphicx
    Use style graphicx.sty for Postscript images.
     This setting turns off any other setting for postscript images
     (e.g. -input-PS).

-charset1
    Switch internal WordPerfect char set to set 1.

-charsetCZ
    Switch internal WordPerfect char set to keybcs.

-i  Force input filename. The next argument is supposed as input file name.

-ignore-tabs
    Remove all [TAB] symbols from WP document. [TAB] characters are usually garbage and user may not want to convert them.

-input-PS
    Use Postscript features in the LaTeX (mainly images).

-l  Force log filename. The next argument is supposed as file name of the log file.

-L LANGUAGE
    Switch message translations to language LANGUAGE. It means that WP2LaTeX can communicate with you with your native language. WP2LaTeX must be compiled with gettext library for accessing this switch.

-LaTeX2
    Optimize optput for LaTex 2.09 (default).

-LaTeX3
    Optimize optput for LaTex 2.e or LaTeX 3.0

-LineNo
    Use package LineNo for line numbering.

-memstream
    Do not create temporary files and store their data in memory. Usually it speed up processing. (Works only if compiled with GCC >= 3.0)

-no-cjHebrew

-no-columns
    Do not translate multicolumn text to more columns. The information about newspaper columns will be lost.

-noclobber
    Prevent overwriting existing files.

-no-erase-strip
    Do not erase temporary files of wp2latex. You could extract nearly plain text from those files. Even when this text cannot be directly used with LaTeX it could be still useful for some tasks.

-no-extract-images
    Turn all extracting images off.

-no-input-PS
    Disable using anything from Postscript in the LaTeX.

-no-lang-XXX
    Disable loading LaTeX localisation for a given language. e.g. -no-lang-USenglish disables switching this locale.

-nooptimizesection
    Turn a code, which optimizes and dectect section, off. Expect more Tex errors if you do this.

-no-safemode

-notexchars
    All chars 32-128 will be converted to Tex sequencies (Default)

-wasy
    Use additional package Wasy2 with special characters.

FILES
/usr/local/bin/wp2latex The main conversion program wp2latex.sty The style for future processing in the TeX system. Normally located in the directory: /usr/local/teTeX/share/texmf/tex/latex/wp2latex/ endnotes.sty The style for including endnotes into LaTeX documents. This style was downloaded from CTAN archive and is part of many LaTeX installations. /usr/share/locale/cs/LC_MESSAGES/ /usr/share/locale/ds/LC_MESSAGES/ Localisation file of wp2latex. This file contains translation of all messages into given language.

AUTHORS
Somebody at Eindhoven Univ of Techn wrote a WordPerfect 5.0 to LaTeX conversion program. Dirk Lellinger wrote formulas parser, but I had to rewrite it srom scratch. Now it works much more better. This Program was rewritten by last author Jaroslav Fojtik, Email (try one of these): fojtik@penguin.cz, JaFojtik@seznam.cz. There are some other ports of this code. But now I hope, that this release is best one.

BUGS
Tabbings are sometimes interpreted incorrectly. Captions of formulas is loosed. Many WP features remain unconverted. There remain many other LaTeX warnings during TeX processing.
