- hintview: Program to view HINT files
The HINT file format is an alternative to the DVI or PDF format
that was designed specifically for on screen reading of documents.
Especially on mobile devices, reading DVI or PDF documents can be
cumbersome.
.
Mobile devices are available in a large variety of sizes but are
typically not large enough to display documents formatted for
letter-size paper. To compensate for the limitations of a small
screen, users are used to alternate between landscape (few long
lines) and portrait (more short lines) mode. The HINT format
supports variable and varying screen sizes leveraging the ability
of TeX to format a document for (almost) arbitrary values of
\hsize and \vsize.
