# Locale::Po4a::LaTeX(3pm)

convert LaTeX documents and derivates from/to PO files

## NAME

Locale::Po4a::LaTeX - convert LaTeX documents and derivates from/to PO files

## DESCRIPTION

The po4a (PO for anything) project goal is to ease translations (and more interestingly, the maintenance of translations) using gettext tools on areas where they were not expected like documentation.

Locale::Po4a::LaTeX is a module to help the translation of LaTeX documents into other \[human\] languages. It can also be used as a base to build modules for LaTeX-based documents.

This module contains the definitions of common LaTeX commands and environments.

See the [**Locale::Po4a::TeX**(3pm)](/Locale::Po4a::TeX/3pm.md) manpage for the list of recognized options.
