# [NAME](#NAME)

yodlpost - Yodl post-processor

# [SYNOPSIS](#SYNOPSIS)

**yodlpost** \[options] index yodlout \[out]

# [DESCRIPTION](#DESCRIPTION)

The **Yodl** post processor is used to solve references into the converted text, and to split (where appropriate) the converted **Yodl** text in parts. Some conversions do not require post-processing, such as LaTeX, but most do. Therefore, in most cases a **Yodl** conversion consists of two phases:

[o](#o)

First, [**yodl**(1)](/man/os/yodl/yodl.1) is called, producing a raw output file and an associated *index* file;

[o](#o~2)

Then, [**yodlpost**(1)](/man/os/yodl/yodlpost.1) is called, converting these two files into a final document. Normally, [**yodl2...**(1)](/man/os/yodl/yodl2....1) scripts are used to perform complete **Yodl** conversions.

# [OPTIONS](#OPTIONS)

**-x ext**: extension of the *out*-**s** if different from *out*’s extension itself. If omitted, and *out* has no extension, *ypp* (Yodl Post Processor) is used.

# [SEE ALSO](#SEE_ALSO)
