I've updated my instructions for installing Eitan Gurari's TeX4ht translator under Miktex for Win32 systems: the new instructions are now available at

 http://www.arch.ohio-state.edu/crp/faculty/pviton/support/tex4ht.html

(the old location).  The new version is geared to the latest version of TeX4ht, Miktex and the helper applications (GhostScript and ImageMagick). It includes detailed instructions on which files need to be updated if you update any of the parts of the system.

It also includes, in a freely available .zip archive, some supplementary batch files, (including files to enable translation to other output formats, like XHTML) and a new command-line utility, htrun.exe, which may simplify running TeX4ht when you have many different kinds of files (LaTeX with and without an explicit TeX4ht package; plain-TeX, TeXinfo) to process. There's a good chance that these supplementary utilities will be useful to those running other TeX-for-Win32 systems; but I have no way of checking.

Steve Mayer, author of the TeXConverter, a Win32 GUI system for running TeX4ht (and other conversion utilities like Hevea and LaTex2HTML) has authorized me to say that there is also a new, improved edition of the TeXConverter available at

The new edition supports the latest features of TeX4ht, as well as my htrun utility.

Acknowledgements:  Eitan Gurari provided extensive comments on the revised instructions; he and Steve Mayer were extremely helpful in the development of htrun.exe; and Steve Mayer served as a willing tester of htrun and the associated batch files. I'm very grateful to them both.

Enjoy!
