Use tex4ht

Readers,

Just started to use texmaker, m$; previously used jedit, gnu/linux.

Tex4ht has been installed using the miktex package manager. Can texmaker be used to invoke tex4ht tools, such as oolatex? Previously, used to use command terminal in linux but don't know what to do in m$.

Thanks.

Re: geometry package margin failure

The manual page for dvipdf states the command is a script that pipes output to gs. So the dvipdf script should be able to replace the use of two commands, dvips and ps2pdf.
