.SH "NAME"
bib2pdf \- script to convert BibTeX format files to PDF format files

.SH "SYNOPSIS"
\fBbib2pdf\fR <input.bib> <output.pdf>

.SH "DESCRIPTION"
\fBbib2pdf\fR is a script to convert a BibTeX file into a PDF
file. The conversion is performed by first creating a small LaTeX file
in which all the bibliographical records are inserted. That LaTeX file
is then \fBlatex\fR\-compiled into a DVI file which, in turn, gets
converted into a PDF file using \fBdvipdfm\fR\&. Note that the script
might be configured to use \fBpdflatex\fR instead of \fBlatex\fR\&,
thus producing the PDF output file with no extra conversion step.
.PP
This script is part of the \fBcb2bib\fR package and is located at
\fI\%/usr/share/cb2bib/c2btools/bib2pdf\fP.
