.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
HTML::FormatRTF is a class for objects that you use to convert \s-1HTML\s0 to \s-1RTF.\s0
There is currently no proper support for tables or forms.
.PP
This is a subclass of HTML::Formatter, whose documentation you should
consult for more information on underlying methods such as \f(CW\*(C`new\*(C'\fR, \f(CW\*(C`format\*(C'\fR,
\&\f(CW\*(C`format_file\*(C'\fR etc
.PP
You can specify any of the following parameters in the call to \f(CW\*(C`new\*(C'\fR,
\&\f(CW\*(C`format_file\*(C'\fR, or \f(CW\*(C`format_string\*(C'\fR:
.IP "lm" 4
.IX Item "lm"
Amount of \fIextra\fR indenting to apply to the left margin, in twips
(\fItw\fRent\fIi\fReths of a \fIp\fRoint). Default is 0.
.Sp
So if you wanted the left margin to be an additional half inch larger, you'd
set \f(CW\*(C`lm => 720\*(C'\fR (since there's 1440 twips in an inch). If you wanted it to
be about 1.5cm larger, you'd set \f(CW\*(C`lw => 850\*(C'\fR (since there's about 567
twips in a centimeter).
.IP "rm" 4
.IX Item "rm"
Amount of \fIextra\fR indenting to apply to the left margin, in twips
(\fItw\fRent\fIi\fReths of a \fIp\fRoint).  Default is 0.
.IP "normal_halfpoint_size" 4
.IX Item "normal_halfpoint_size"
This is the size of normal text in the document, in \fIhalf\fR\-points. The default
value is 22, meaning that normal text is in 11 point.
.IP "header_halfpoint_size" 4
.IX Item "header_halfpoint_size"
This is the size of text used in the document's page-header, in \fIhalf\fR\-points.
The default value is 17, meaning that normal text is in 7.5 point.  Currently,
the header consists just of "p. \fIpagenumber\fR" in the upper-right-hand corner,
and cannot be disabled.
.IP "head1_halfpoint_size ... head6_halfpoint_size" 4
.IX Item "head1_halfpoint_size ... head6_halfpoint_size"
These control the font size of each heading level, in half-twips.  For example,
the default for head3_halfpoint_size is 25, meaning that \s-1HTML\s0 \f(CW\*(C`<h3>...</h3>\*(C'\fR text will be in 12.5 point text (in addition to being underlined and in the
heading font).
.IP "codeblock_halfpoint_size" 4
.IX Item "codeblock_halfpoint_size"
This controls the font size (in half-points) of the text used for \f(CW\*(C`<pre>...</pre>\*(C'\fR text.  By default, it is 18, meaning 9 point.
.IP "fontname_body" 4
.IX Item "fontname_body"
This option controls what font is to be used for the body of the text \*(-- that
is, everything other than heading text and text in pre/code/tt elements. The
default value is currently \*(L"Times\*(R".  Other handy values I can suggest using are
\&\*(L"Georgia\*(R" or \*(L"Bookman Old Style\*(R".
.IP "fontname_code" 4
.IX Item "fontname_code"
This option controls what font is to be used for text in pre/code/tt elements.
The default value is currently \*(L"Courier New\*(R".
.IP "fontname_headings" 4
.IX Item "fontname_headings"
This option controls what font name is to be used for headings.  You can use
the same font as fontname_body, but I prefer a sans-serif font, so the default
value is currently \*(L"Arial\*(R".  Also consider \*(L"Tahoma\*(R" and \*(L"Verdana\*(R".
.IP "document_language" 4
.IX Item "document_language"
This option controls what Microsoft language number will be specified as the
language for this document. The current default value is 1033, for \s-1US\s0 English.
Consult an \s-1RTF\s0 reference for other language numbers.
.IP "hr_width" 4
.IX Item "hr_width"
This option controls how many underline characters will be used for rendering a
\&\*(L"<hr>\*(R" tag. Its default value is currently 50. You can usually leave this
alone, but under some circumstances you might want to use a smaller or larger
number.
.IP "no_prolog" 4
.IX Item "no_prolog"
If this option is set to a true value, HTML::FormatRTF will make a point of
\&\fInot\fR emitting the \s-1RTF\s0 prolog before the document.  By default, this is off,
meaning that HTML::FormatRTF \fIwill\fR emit the prolog.  This option is of
interest only to advanced users.
.IP "no_trailer" 4
.IX Item "no_trailer"
If this option is set to a true value, HTML::FormatRTF will make a point of
\&\fInot\fR emitting the \s-1RTF\s0 trailer at the end of the document.  By default, this
is off, meaning that HTML::FormatRTF \fIwill\fR emit the bit of \s-1RTF\s0 that ends the
document.  This option is of interest only to advanced users.
