I am pretty sure this has been discussed but I can't find it in the LUGNET archive. I have installed POV 3.1 and MegaPOV 0.7 on a fast server along with LPub. When I go to load my LPub configuration file it doesn't recognize MegaPOV and it doesn't (...) (21 years ago, 22-Aug-03, to lugnet.cad.ray)

(...) Why not let POVray generate .PNG directly? I know it's possible when you run POV 'by hand', but I don't know if LPub lets you set that option. Maybe you can modify somewhere in the pov .ini-chain to get the option set regardless of what LPub (...) (21 years ago, 22-Aug-03, to lugnet.cad.ray)
