eqn2graph reads a one-line eqn(1) equation from the standard input and writes an image file, by default in Portable Network Graphics (PNG) format, to the standard output.
The input EQN code should not be preceded by the .EQ macro that normally precedes it within groff(1) macros; nor do you need to have dollar-sign or other delimiters around the equation.
Arguments not recognized by eqn2graph are passed to the ImageMagick or GraphicsMagick program convert(1). By specifying these, you can give your image a border, set the image's pixel density, or perform other useful transformations.
The output image is clipped using convert's -trim option to the smallest possible bounding box that contains all the black pixels.
eqn2graph was written by Eric S. Raymond, based on a recipe for pic2graph(1), by W. Richard Stevens.
