1 INTRODUCTION
==============
This LaTeX package provides the command \thepagecolor, which gives
the current page (background) color, i. e. the argument used with
the most recent call of \pagecolor{...}.
The command \thepagecolornone gives the same color as
\thepagecolor, except when the page background color is "none".
In that case \thepagecolor is white and \thepagecolornone is none.
When \nopagecolor is unknown or broken (crop package),
this package provides a replacement.
Similar to \newgeometry and \restoregeometry of the geometry package
\newpagecolor{...} and \restorepagecolor are provided.
For use with the crop package \backgroundpagecolor{...}
as well as \newbackgroundpagecolor{...} and
\restorebackgroundpagecolor are provided.

2 DOWNLOAD
==========
"pagecolor" is available on CTAN:
https://www.ctan.org/pkg/pagecolor
Also a ZIP file is provided that contains the files:
the manual (pagecolor.pdf), the example (pagecolor-example.tex),
the compiled example (pagecolor-example.pdf),
driver (pagecolor.drv), pagecolor.dtx,
installation file (pagecolor.ins),
the style file (pagecolor.sty),
and this README, already sorted in a TDS tree:
https://mirrors.ctan.org/install/macros/latex/contrib/pagecolor.tds.zip
3 INSTALLATION
==============
Installation with ZIP file in TDS format
----------------------------------------
The ZIP file "pagecolor.tds.zip" contains the files
sorted in a TDS tree. Thus you can directly unpack the
ZIP file inside a TDS tree.
See https://www.ctan.org/TDS-guidelines for an explanation
of TDS.
Example:
cd /...somewhere.../texmf
unzip /...downloadpath.../pagecolor.tds.zip
Do not forget to refresh the file name database of this
TDS tree.
Example:
texhash /...somewhere.../texmf
Manual installation
-------------------
a) Download the pagecolor files from CTAN.
If necessary, unpack them.
b) Generate the package and driver files:
tex pagecolor.dtx
c) Install the file "pagecolor.sty" in your TDS tree:
cp pagecolor.sty TDS:tex/latex/pagecolor/
Replace "TDS:" by the prefix of your TDS tree
(texmf directory).
d) Create the documentation, if necessary, e.g.
pdflatex pagecolor.dtx
makeindex -s gind.ist pagecolor.idx
pdflatex pagecolor.dtx
makeindex -s gind.ist pagecolor.idx
pdflatex pagecolor.dtx
e) Update the databases if necessary, e.g. for teTeX:
mktexlsr .../texmf
f) Create the pagecolor-example.pdf, if necessary, e.g.
pdflatex pagecolor-example.tex
pdflatex pagecolor-example.tex
pdflatex pagecolor-example.tex
g) Copy the documentation files to
"TDS:doc/latex/pagecolor/":
README, pagecolor.pdf, pagecolor-example.tex,
pagecolor-example.pdf.
4 ADDITIONAL PACKAGES
=====================
pagecolor loads other packages:
- kvoptions and
- xcolor, if the color package has not been loaded before pagecolor
which again load other packages
(see the result of the \listfiles command in the log-file
of the example).
5 PACKAGE COMPATIBILITY
=======================
pagecolor should be loaded quite early, i.e. before
\pagecolor{...} is used by some other package
(but can be loaded later using the pagecolor={...} option
with accordingly chosen value), but must be loaded after
\nopagecolor is defined (if that is defined in the document
at all). If the xcolor or the color package shall be used,
they also should be loaded before pagecolor.

7 BUG REPORTS
==============
A bug report should contain:
* Comprehensive problem description. This includes error or
warning messages.
* \errorcontextlines=\maxdimen can be added in the
TeX code to get more information in TeX error messages.
* Minimal test file that shows the problem,
but does not contain any unnecessary packages and code.
* Used drivers/programs.
* Version information about used packages and programs.
* If you are using LaTeX, then add "\listfiles" to the document.
Then a list of version information is printed at the end
of the LaTeX run.
* Please no other files than the minimal test file.
The other files .log, .dvi, .ps, .pdf are seldom
necessary, so send them only on request.
* Please .zip or .tar.gz your file(s) before sending them!
