LaTeX in Word is a GPL-licensed tool that allows equations to be used in Microsoft Word documents. The client-side of the program is implemented as VBA macros and can be found in a separate package. In contrast, this package contains the server-side files in the form of the tarball "Process_LaTeX-0.1.0.tar.gz". It is recommended that you read the Word document in the client-side package before creating your own LaTeX in Word server. For casual use, the default server may be sufficient. Briefly, installation consists of installing PERL, PHP, LaTeX, dvipng, and ImageMagick on a *nix web server. The included tarball can be extracted via the following command or its equivalent: tar -xvzf Process_LaTeX-0.1.0.tar.gz This will create a "Process_LaTeX" subdirectory immediately below the current directory. Hence, the current directory should be one that can be accessed by web users. For example, on some systems this directory could be "public-web" or one of its subdirectories. The permissions of the extracted files will then have to be changed so that web users can execute the scripts. For example, in a particular installation that treats anonymous web users as being in the same group as the files' owner, the following permissions were used: drwxr-xr-x . -rw-r--r-- Delete_Temporary_Files.php -rw-r--r-- LaTeX_Converter.pl -rw-r--r-- Process_LaTeX.php -rw-r--r-- template.tex drwxrwxr-x temporary The additional 0-byte file "temporary/placeholder" exists only to ensure that the "temporary" directory is stored in the tarball, so this file can be deleted after extraction. Since the other files are written in PERL, PHP, and LaTeX, there is no separate source code. Complete license information can be found in the file "gpl.txt" stored in this package.
