LaTeX Page Size --- how do I produce a page that is "just big enough"?
I was learning about using the command line version of latex today, and I was experimenting with outputting .tex to .dvi, and then .开发者_JAVA技巧dvi to .png.
The problem is, I have a simple .tex document which contains some math. The goal is to eventually produce a png form of the equation. But when I run:
$ latex -output-format=dvi test.tex
$ dvipng test.dvi
I get test1.png that is shaped like a regular letter-sized page. I only want an image that is as big as the equation needs to be. I'm sure I'm missing something obvious, but I can't figure it out!
Is there a command line option for either latex or dvipng to specify that the output file should only be set on a page as large as needed to render the equation?
Here's my example test.tex:
\documentclass{article}
\begin{document}
The solution to $\sqrt{x} = 5$ is $x=25$.
\end{document}
Thanks!
Try
dvipng -T tight filename
EDIT: As Mr tur1ing
points out, you'll also want \pagestyle{empty}
to avoid having a page number muck up the works.
Try mathurl and Roger's Online Equation Editor. There probably several other such sites.
