6.14.2. Raw weaver

Use of raw weavers is vital for output of typesetter specialised constructions. For example, If you are generating output for both HTML and Latex, and you have a complex table to print, you can set the weaver to a raw weaver attached to the same sink file as the HTML weaver and write HTML directly, then you can do the same for Latex. In that way, you get tables optimised for the various typesetting systems.
