This is a Un*x/Linux project only! However if you get the basic MikTex installation on Windows, you will find the dvipng.exe file in the bin directory.

Probably the worst set of install instructions I have ever had the pleasure to read. Please make your instructions more clear, or make the installation more user friendly. I don't have time to master the command terminal just to install a converter. None of the commands illustrated in the install readme are working, and no context or background is provided towards which the commands might work. Parts of the trouble shooting sections are great and illustrative, but are useless in light of the vague basic installation instructions.

You will need a TeX environment to use this program, all environments I know of provide dvipng as an add-on, ready to use. (This download consists of source code, the instructions are for building from source. There is a mailing list to use if you want help.)
