3. Enter a command line
The following pattern may be helpful if you want to know what factors should be included in a command line, when you want to rotate the pate and convert WMF to TIF.
htmltools -rotate <int> <WMF file> <TIF file>
In the above pattern, four factors are included.
- the executable file ---- htmltools
- the command ---- -rotate <int> ( int refers to integer and the angle brackets <> are often used to mark the essential content.)
- the input file ---- WMF file(s)
- the output file ---- TIF file(s).
The command line below is a perfect example which is composed of the four factors. If you take a close look at the command line, you will find that all the files are represented by the directories. This is because computer cannot recognize the file names in a command line if the whole directories do not appear.
D:\htmltools\htmltools.exe -rotate 180 C:\in\*.wmf D:\out\*.tif
The following will account for the four parts of the example.
- D:\htmltools\htmltools.exe ---- the directory of the executable file. The executable file htmltools.exe is always placed in the folder htmltools when the compressed file is decompressed. In the example, the executable file htmltools.exe is in the folder htmltools on disk D.
- -rotate 180 ---- the command that can be used to rotate the page up-side-down. The number 180 can be substituted by 90 or 270.
- C:\in\*.wmf ---- the directory of the input files. The wildcard * represents all the input WMF files in the folder in on disk C.
- D:\out\*.tif---- the directory of output files. The file extension indicates that the output format should be TIF. It indicates that all the result files should be put in the folder out on disk D.
All the directories of the files in the example can be replaced, depending on the circumstances in your computer. Besides, the number which stands for the angle degree can also be changed, according to your priorities.
