Thanks, Nasser M. Abbasi, for kindly making the test of \int\limits _{-\infty}^{+\infty} on your computer and for providing some information about the software on your computer, including how you run pdflatex and LaTeX2HTML. I get the impression that the latex and pdflatex commands may run very simlar programs, if not exactly the same program because something about PDFLaTeX or some similar spelling appeared when I executed a command of the form "latex File.tex" on my computer. I tried matching a few things on my computer that you did not your computer, for example using HTML version 4.0 instead of 3.2, using $DVIPSOPT='-E'; in /usr/lib/latex2html/l2hconf.pm, etc. But unfortunately on my computer I could not get rid of the unwanted black line segment under the integral sign and its limits of integration.

It appears that you and I have recently been using the same version of the TeX Live "Base," namely including version 3.1415926 of 2009 of TeX Live. However, you have been using ../TeX/Base in a Debian system called Ubuntu, whereas I have been using it in an RPM- (RedHat Package Manager-) based system called OpenSUSE 11.3. For the moment I am going to assume that the Debian-RPM difference by itself is unimportant with regard to the unwanted black line segments. It is nice that you have a working situation for \int\limits _{-\infty} ^{+\infty}. So, if you don't mind, I would like to sort of probe it in order to see where my trouble might be. Of interest to me are your versions of LaTeX2HTML, which is part of /TeX/Utilities and Netpbm, which I think may include the program pnmcrop, which I think is very important in cropping images. So please report your installed versions of those software packages to me. I saw that on your computer the command "latex2html -v" unfortunately I think did not result in a display of the version of LaTeX2HTML you are using. So if you don't already know them, please note your versions of latex2html and dvips or dvips(k) by looking at the latex2html output after inputting a latex2html... command. Also please type "netpbm -version" and "perl -v" and report your respective installed versions of Netpbm and Perl to me. Thanks.

Pat

In my request earlier in this chain of e-mail letters that LaTeX2HTML users perform the \int\limits _{-\infty}^{+\infty} experiment for me, I would like

I am sorry to see you still get the black lines below the math.

fyi, Just tried your math on my l2h, and I do not get black lines.

Here is the result:
