--- name: "bib2pdf" section: "1" platform: "linux" package: "cb2bib" version: "2.0.1-3" release: "Debian 13 (Trixie)" platforms: ["linux"] url: "https://new.carta.tech/bib2pdf" --- # bib2pdf(1) script to convert BibTeX format files to PDF format files ## NAME bib2pdf - script to convert BibTeX format files to PDF format files ## SYNOPSIS **bib2pdf** \ \ ## DESCRIPTION **bib2pdf** 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 **latex**-compiled into a DVI file which, in turn, gets converted into a PDF file using **dvipdfm**. Note that the script might be configured to use **pdflatex** instead of **latex**, thus producing the PDF output file with no extra conversion step. This script is part of the **cb2bib** package and is located at */usr/share/cb2bib/c2btools/bib2pdf*. ## BIBLIOGRAPHICAL REFERENCES TO BE CITED P.
