Package Information

Description:

This program makes PNG and/or GIF graphics from DVI files as obtained from TeX and its relatives. If GIF support is enabled, GIF output is chosen by using the ‘dvigif’ binary or with the ‘--gif’ option. It is intended to produce anti-aliased screen-resolution images as fast as is possible. The target audience is people who need to generate and regenerate many images again and again. The primary target is the preview-latex (X)Emacs package, a package to preview formulas from within (X)Emacs. Yes, you get to see your formulas in the (X)Emacs buffer, see <https://www.gnu.org/software/auctex/preview-latex.html>.
