+
+1. Introduction
+ ------------
+
+ The dvipdfmx (formerly dvipdfm-cjk) project provides an eXtended version
+ of the dvipdfm, a DVI to PDF translator developed by Mark A. Wicks.
+
+ The primary goal of this project is to support multi-byte character
+ encodings and large character sets for East Asian languages. The secondary
+ goal is to support as many features as pdfTeX developed by Han The Thanh.
+
+ This project is a combined work of the dvipdfm-jpn project by Shunsaku
+ Hirata and its modified one, dvipdfm-kor, by Jin-Hwan Cho.
+
+
+2. Installation
+ -----------------------
+
+ Typical usage and installation steps are not different from the original dvipdfm.
+ Please refer documents from dvipdfm distribution for detailed instruction on how
+ to install and how to use dvipdfm.
+
+
+2.1. Compiling and Installation
+
+
+ If you have obtained older version, please use latest version unless you have a
+ clear reason to choose older versions. The latest snapshot of dvipdfmx source is
+ available at:
+
+ http://project.ktug.or.kr/dvipdfmx/snapshot/
+
+ And the CVS repository for this project can be obtained through anonymous CVS
+ access with the following command:
+
+ cvs -d:pserver:anonymous@cvs.ktug.or.kr:/home/cvsroot login
+ cvs -d:pserver:anonymous@cvs.ktug.or.kr:/home/cvsroot co dvipdfmx
+
+ When prompted for a password, simply press the Enter key.
+
+
+ The kpathsea library is required to compile and install dvipdfmx in UNIX or
+ UNIX-like platforms. It is usually included for most of TeX distributions.
+ If you already have installed dvipdfm (the original) by yourself, you should
+ already have kpathsea library and it's headers. And zlib library is highly
+ recommended as dvipdfmx can't compress data without this.
+
+
+ Before starting things, you must check the location of your TeX installation.
+ If other TeX related programs are installed under, e.g., '/usr/local/TeX/bin',
+ you should specify directory '/usr/local/TeX' as an for ./configure script as
+
+ ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/TeX --with-kpathsea=/usr/local/TeX
+
+ If you are using libpaper to handle paper sizes for various program, you can
+ use --with-paper option to ./configure. The location of libpaper library can
+ be specified with this option as
+
+ --with-paper=DIR
+
+ Please note thath dvipdfmx uses JIS paper size for B-series paper instead of
+ ISO's one for historical reason. (too late to change the default behavior)
+ The most easiest way to fix this is to use libpaper if you already have that,
+ otherwise define ISO_PAPERSIZE macro at compilation time.
+
+ Dvipdfmx requires libpng library available from
+
+ http://www.libpng.org/pub/png/libpng.html
+
+ to read PNG format images. To tell dvipdfmx the location of libpng header
+ and library, use configure option
+
+ --with-png=DIR
+
+ After you have finished ./configure, just type
+
+ make && make install
+
+ then dvipdfmx will be installed under the directory specified by the --prefix
+ option to ./configure script. After you have successfully installed dvipdfmx,
+ you may need to install various auxiliary files and slightly adjust location
+ of files or configuration. Amount of additional files and modification depends
+ on your environment, and briefly described in the sections follows.
+
+
+2.2. TeX Directory Structure (TDS)
+
+
+ If your TeX installation is conforming with TDS version 1.1 described in
+
+ http://www.tug.org/ftp/tex/tds-1.1/
+
+ , then you'll need to adjust your dvipdfmx installtion. This also applies when
+ you have updated programs without modifying existing platform independent files
+ (files in texmf directory). Dvipdfmx installs few files in addition to dvipdfmx
+ program itself, dvipdfmx.cnf, cid-x.map and others, but it currently does not
+ choose installation directory as appropriate for TDS 1.1.
+
+ If your 'kpsewhich' program recognizes '.sfd' file format, i.e.,
+
+ kpsewhich --show-path --format=.sfd
+
+ does not answer as 'unknown format', then you should move several files under
+ appropriate locations or should modify texmf.cnf as follows:
+
+ * Subfont Definition (SFD) Files
+
+ Recommended location of SFD files (.sfd) is
+
+ $TEXMF/fonts/sfd/
+
+ and environmental variable for specifying additional search path for this
+ file format files is
+
+ SFDFONTS
+
+ . To make those files visible to dvipdfmx under TDS 1.1 installation, you
+ must move all .sfd files to the directory mentioned above or set SFDFONTS
+ variable in texmf.cnf. As some programs may not be updated to follow this
+ convention yet, it is recommended to preserve old installation directory.
+ If you have .sfd files under "$TEXMF/dvipdfm/", please do not use that,
+ please move all files to the directory mentioned above.
+
+ * PostScript CMap Resources
+
+ Recommended location of CMap files (no suffix or with suffix .cmap) is
+
+ $TEXMF/fonts/cmap/
+
+ and environmental variable for adding extra search path for this format files
+ is
+
+ CMAPFONTS
+
+ You may want to set CMAPFONTS to include GhostScript's Resource path, e.g.,
+
+ /usr/share/ghostscript/Resource/CMap//
+
+ in your texmf.cnf file as this resource can be used by various programs that
+ manipulates PS/PDF files. Dvipdfmx installs few additional files into the
+ directory "$TEXMF/dvipdfm/CMap", please move this files to the directory for
+ CMap files. But please note that file "Adobe-Identity-UCS2" is not meaningful
+ to other programs at all, so you should place at least this file in different
+ location than CMap files. (Or you can just remove this unless you see problems
+ in copy-and-pasting text from dvipdfmx output PDF.)
+
+ * Font Mapping Files
+
+ Suggested place for dvipdfm's font mapping files (.map) is
+
+ $TEXMF/fonts/map/dvipdfm/
+
+ and environmental variable for this format files is
+
+ TEXFONTMAPS
+
+ For files containing dvipdfmx extension to dvipdfm format, place them into
+
+ $TEXMF/fonts/map/dvipdfmx/
+
+ instead of sub-directory 'dvipdfm'.
+
+ * OpenType Fonts
+
+ Appropriate place for OpenType font with PostScript outline (.otf) is
+
+ $TEXMF/fonts/opentype/supplier/typeface/
+
+ where 'supplier' and 'typeface' should be replaced with font's supplier and
+ typeface identifier strings.
+
+
+2.3. Auxiliary Files
+
+
+ 1) CMap PostScript Resources
+
+ Dvipdfmx internally identifies glyphs in a font with identifier represented
+ as numbers ranging from 0 to 65535. CMap PostScript Resources defines how the
+ input character codes are translated to those ID's (CID). CID's should be
+ uniquely assigned to every glyphs contained in a collection of glyphs. Adobe
+ has defined several "character collection"s; Adobe-GB1 (Simplified Chinese),
+ Adobe-CNS1 (Traditional Chinese), Adobe-Japan1 (Japanese), and Adobe-Korea1
+ (Korean), which contains much of glyphs necessary for publishing for each
+ languages. Details on Adobe's character collections can be found at Adobe's
+ developer site:
+
+ http://partners.adobe.com/public/developer/font/index.html
+
+ Please install CMap resource files under the directory
+
+ ${TEXMF}/fonts/cmap
+
+ , or set CMAPFONTS variable to point the directory containing CMap resource
+ in texmf.cnf. If your TeX installation does not conforming TDS 1.1, then you
+ should set CMAPINPUTS variable to make those files visible to dvipdfmx. For
+ examples,
+
+ CMAPINPUTS= .;$TEXMF/fonts/cmap//
+
+ Adobe's "CMaps for PDF 1.4 CJK Fonts" are available from:
+
+ http://partners.adobe.com/public/developer/acrobat/index_advanced.html
+
+ or
+
+ ftp://ftp.oreilly.com/pub/examples/nutshell/cjkv/adobe/
+
+ You can find a short explanation of each CMap files in cid2code.txt contained
+ in the archive files found at the above FTP site.
+
+
+ 2) SubFont Definition Files
+
+ .....
+
+
+ 3) Adobe Glyph List and ToUnicode Mapping Files
+
+ The Adobe glyph list (AGL) file describes correspondence between PostScript
+ glyph names (e.g., AE, Aacute, ...) and it's Unicode character sequences.
+ Most features described in the section "Unicode Support" requires this file.
+
+ Dvipdfmx looks for file "glyphlist.txt" when conversion from PostScript glyph
+ names to Unicode is necessary. This conversion is done in various situations;
+ when creating ToUnicode CMap for 8bit encoded fonts, finding glyph description
+ from TrueType/OpenType fonts supporting Unicode when the font itself does not
+ provide the mapping from PostScript glyph names to glyph indices (version 2.0
+ "post" table), and when encoding "unicode" is specified for Type 1 font.
+
+ The "glyphlist.txt" file written by Adobe is found at
+
+ http://partners.adobe.com/asn/tech/type/glyphlist.txt
+
+ You should place file "glyphlist.txt" in a directory shown by
+
+ kpsewhich --progname=dvipdfm --show-path="other text files"
+
+ Please check kpathsea library can find this file by 'kpsewhich' command:
+
+ kpsewhich --progname=dvipdfm --format="other text files" glyphlist.txt
+
+ The 'progname' is not dvipdfmx but dvipdfm here.
+
+ ToUnicode mapping is similar to glyph list file but describes correspondence
+ between CID numbers and Unicode values. The content of this file look like a
+ CMap files and is contained in "CMaps for PDF 1.4 CJK Fonts" from Adobe (see
+ "CMap PostScript Resources" above). This file is required to support TrueType
+ font (including OpenType fonts with TrueType outline). Those files should be
+ installed same directory as ordinary CMap files.

+6. DVI Specials
+
+6.1. Compatibility
+
+6.2. Additions to Dvipdfm's pdf: Special
+
+
+7. Font Mapping
+
+
+7.1. Options for CJK Font
+
+ Few options are available in dvipdfmx (for CID-keyed fonts) in addition
+ to the original dvipdfm.
+
+
+ 1) TTC Index
+
+ You can specify TrueType Collection index number with :n: option in front
+ of TrueType font name.
+
+ min10 H :1:mincho
+
+ In this example, the option :1: tells dvipdfmx to select TrueType font #1
+ from TrueType collection font "mincho.ttc".
+
+
+ 2) No-embed Switch
+
+ It is possible to block embedding glyph data with the character `!'
+ in front of the font name in the font mapping file.
+
+ This feature reduces the size of the final PDF output, but the PDF file
+ may not be viewed exactly in other systems on which appropriate fonts
+ are not installed.
+
+ Use of this option is not recommended for fonts that contains unusual
+ characters (and characters having different width from default value).
+ Please note that glyph metric information is not written in the output
+ PDF file for TrueType fonts without embedding. It will be treated as
+ fixed-pitch with all widths equal to the default value (will be fixed
+ someday).
+
+
+ 3) Stylistic Variants
+
+ Keywords ",Bold", ",Italic", and ",BoldItalic" can be used to create
+ synthetic bold, italic, and bolditalic style variants from other font
+ using PDF viewer's (or OS's) function.
+
+ jbtmo@UKS@ UniKSCms-UCS2-H :0:!batang,Italic
+ jbtb@Unicode@ Identity-H !batang/UCS,Bold
+
+ Availability of this feature highly depends on the implementation of PDF
+ viewers. This feature is not supported for embedded fonts in the most of
+ PDF viewers, like Adobe Acrobat Reader and GNU Ghostscript.
+
+ Notice that this option automatically disable font embedding.
+
+
+
+8. Incompatible Changes From Dvipdfm
+
+
+
+9. Other Improvement Over Dvipdfm
+
+
+9.1. Encryption
+
+
+9.2. Font
+
+
+
+10. Font Licensing and Embedding
+
+ In OpenType format, information regarding how the font should be treated
+ when creating documents can be recorded. Dvipdfmx uses this information
+ to decide whether embedding font into the document is permitted.
+
+ This font embedding information is indicated by a flag called as "fsType"
+ flag; each bit representing different restrictions on font embedding.
+ If multiple flag bits are set in fsType, the least restrictive license
+ granted takes precedence in dvipdfmx. The fsType flag bits recognized by
+ dvipdfmx is as follows:
+
+ * Installable embedding
+
+ All font with this type of license can be embedded.
+
+ * Editable embedding
+
+ All font with this type of license can be embedded.
+
+ * Embedding for Preview & Print only
+
+ Dvipdfmx give the following warning message for fonts with this
+ type of license:
+
+ This document contains `Preview & Print' only licensed font
+
+ For the font with this type of licensing, font embedding is allowed
+ solely for the purpose of (on-screen) viewing and/or printing the
+ document; further editing of the document or extracting an embedded
+ font data for other purpose is not allowed. To ensure this condition,
+ you must at least protect your document with non-empty password.
+
+ All other flags are treated as more restrictive license than any of the
+ above flags and treated as "No embedding allowed"; e.g., if both of the
+ editable-embedding flag and unrecognized license flag is set, the font
+ is treated as editable-embedding allowed, however, if only unrecognized
+ flags are set, the font is not embedded.
+
+ Embedding flags are preserved in embedded font if the font is embedded
+ as a TrueType font or a CIDFontType 2 CIDFont. For all font embedded as
+ a PostScript font (CFF, CIDFontType 0 CIDFont), they are not preserved.
+ Only /Copyright and /Notice in the FontInfo dictionary are preserved in
+ this case.
+
+ Some font vendors put different embedding restrictions for different
+ condition; e.g., font embedding might be not permitted for commercial
+ materials unless you acquire "commercial license" separately.
+ Please read EULA carefully before making decision on font usage.
+
+
+ Adobe provide a font licensing FAQ and a list of embedding permissions
+ for Adobe Type Library fonts:
+
+ http://www.adobe.com/type/browser/legal/
+
+ For Japanese font in general, embedding permission tend to be somewhat
+ restrictive. Japanese users should read the statement regarding font
+ embedding from Japan Typography Association (in Japanese):
+
+ http://www.typo.or.jp/info/morals/moral4.html
+
+
