   3 # This script takes a pLaTeX file and generates a collection of
   4 # png or ppm image files, one per previewed snippet.
   5 # Example usage:
   6 # lyxpreview-platex2bitmap.py ppm 0lyxpreview.tex 128 000000 faf0e6
   7
   8 # This script takes five arguments:
   9 # FORMAT:   The desired output format. 'ppm'.
  10 # TEXFILE:  the name of the .tex file to be converted.
  11 # DPI:      a scale factor, used to ascertain the resolution of the
  12 #           generated image which is then passed to gs.
  13 # FG_COLOR: the foreground color as a hexadecimal string, eg '000000'.
  14 # BG_COLOR: the background color as a hexadecimal string, eg 'faf0e6'.
