Thread: [GnuWin32-Users] How to create pdf from texi file with makeinfo for windows?

Hi,

 

recently I installed texinfo for windows 4.13a from gnuwin32 on a windows 10 machine. With the makeinfo.exe it contains,
rum from a windows command line, I can create info files from texi files by

 

makeinfo <filename>.texi

 

without any problem. But makeinfo does not seem to accept any options:

 

Makeinfo -pdf <filename>.texi 

 

results in

 

'unrecognized option -pdf'. Same with --dvipdf

 

Not even the -help option works:

 

Makeinfo -help

 

gives me back

 

'Dateiangabe fehlt'  (something like: 'missing file specification')

 

How can I pass options to makeinfo on the windows command line? And how can I use makeinfo under windows to create pdf
files from texi? I can't find any documentation about the particular situation of makeinfo under windows.

 

Thanks a lot and best regards,

Roland
