Output format selection (default is to produce Info):

--docbook

output Docbook XML

--html

output HTML

--epub3

output EPUB 3

--latex

output LaTeX

--plaintext

output plain text rather than Info

--xml

output Texinfo XML

--dvi, --dvipdf, --ps, --pdf

call texi2dvi to generate given output, after checking validity of TEXINFO-FILE

General output options:

-E, --macro-expand=FILE

output macro-expanded source to FILE, ignoring any @setfilename

--no-headers

suppress node separators, Node: lines, and menus from Info output (thus producing plain text) or from HTML (thus producing shorter output). Also, if producing Info, write to standard output by default.

--no-split

suppress any splitting of the output; generate only one output file

-o, --output=DEST

output to DEST. With split output, create DEST as a directory and put the output files there. With non-split output, if DEST is already a directory or ends with a /, put the output file there. Otherwise, DEST names the output file.

--disable-encoding

do not output accented and special characters in Info and plain text output based on document encoding

--enable-encoding

override --disable-encoding (default)

Options for Info and plain text:

--fill-column=NUM

break Info lines at NUM columns (default 72)

--footnote-style=STYLE

output footnotes in Info according to STYLE: `separate' to put them in their own node; `end' to put them at the end of the node, in which they are defined (this is the default)

--paragraph-indent=VAL

indent Info paragraphs by VAL spaces (default 3). If VAL is `none', do not indent; if VAL is `asis', preserve existing indentation.

--split-size=NUM

split Info files at size NUM (default 300000)

Options for HTML:

--css-include=FILE

include FILE in HTML <style> output; read stdin if FILE is -

--css-ref=URL

generate CSS reference to URL

--internal-links=FILE

produce list of internal links in FILE

--split=SPLIT

split at SPLIT, where SPLIT may be `chapter', `section' or `node'

--transliterate-file-names

use file names in ASCII transliteration

--node-files

produce redirection files for nodes and anchors; default is set only if split

Options for DVI/PS/PDF:

--Xopt=OPT

pass OPT to texi2dvi; can be repeated

Input file options:

-D VAR

define the variable VAR, as with @set

-D 'VAR VAL'

define VAR to VAL (one shell argument)

-I DIR

append DIR to the @include search path

-P DIR

prepend DIR to the @include search path

-U VAR

undefine the variable VAR, as with @clear

Conditional processing in input:

--ifdocbook

process @ifdocbook and @docbook

--ifhtml

process @ifhtml and @html

--ifinfo

process @ifinfo

--iflatex

process @iflatex and @latex

--ifplaintext

process @ifplaintext

--iftex

process @iftex and @tex

--ifxml

process @ifxml and @xml

By default, an --ifFORMAT setting is on only when the output format is FORMAT; for example, --ifhtml is on when outputting HTML. Also, when --ifFORMAT is on, @ifnotFORMAT text is not processed.

Each --ifFORMAT option may be prefixed with `--no-' to negate it; for example, --no-ifhtml means not to process @ifhtml or @html text, and to process @ifnothtml text.
