-The pdfTeX team is happy to announce the release of a new stable version:
-
-===========================================================================
- pdfTeX 1.40.0
-===========================================================================
-
-This is the announcement of pdfTeX 1.40.0, an extended version of TeX that
-can create PDF directly from TeX source files and enhance the result of TeX
-typesetting with the help of PDF.
-
-===========================================================================
- Main changes of pdfTeX 1.40.0
-===========================================================================
-
-- pdfetex (as a separate binary/program) is gone; all extensions are now in
- pdftex. The make files still know about the target pdfetex, but it's just
- a copy of pdftex
-- The sources of TeX, eTeX and pdfTeX have been merged into one file
- pdftex.web and one change file pdftex.ch. The sources of TeX and eTeX
- distributed are just there for reference
-- New features:
- - pdfTeX can now generate PDF 1.5 object streams, which leads to smaller
- PDFs. This is controlled by setting \pdfobjcompresslevel to a value >0
- (3 compress everything, 2 don't compress /Info, 1 also don't compress
- embedded PDFs) and works only with PDF >=1.5
- - pdfTeX now supports another image file format: JBIG2 files (.jbig2)
- - the memory allocated for objects and destination names now grows
- dynamically
- - pdfTeX now generates smaller PDFs since for char positioning the width
- of chars (/Widths) is stored with more precision and so the chars must
- rarely be positioned separately
- - the PK resolution is now taken from the "pk_dpi" parameter in texmf.cnf
- if it has not been set in the format file or by the user
- - pdfTeX now removes the generated pdf in case of a fatal error
- - pdfTeX now sets /ModDate and /Trapped in the InfoDict by default (the
- values can be overridden with \pdfinfo)
- - the format of warnings and errors issued by pdfTeX has been changed and
- unified
- - the output of -version has been extended and now includes information
- about the libraries actually used, which can be handy when using shared
- libraries
- - rules and their positioning on the page are now inside a qQ group
-- New primitives:
- - pdfTeX can now handle colourstacks.
- - \pdfcolorstackinit
- A stack is initialized by \pdfcolorstackinit. It expands to the
- number of the new stack. The common case, the traditinal color stack
- is already initialized as first stack: \pdfcolorstackinit page direct
- {0 g 0 G} The keyword "page" means that this stack is page based. At
- the start of the new page, the current stack value is automatically
- set.
- - \pdfcolorstack
- \pdfcolorstack <stack number> push {<new color>}
- pushes the current value on the stack and sets the <new color>.
- \pdfcolorstack <stack number> pop
- pops and sets the current stack value.
- \pdfcolorstack <stack number> current
- sets the current stack value without changing the stack. This is
- useful for stacks that are initialized without keyword "page". Thus
- the page start setting can be set manually.
- \pdfcolorstack <stack number> set {<new color>}
- The current value is set to <new color>.
- - Transformation matrices can now be manipulated more cleanly:
- Currently matrix changes are done and hidden inside \pdfliteral nodes;
- pdfTeX doesn't parse its contents and does not know the new settings of
- the transform matrix. Thus the new primitives to save pdfTeX from
- parsing \pdfliteral contents and to notify pdfTeX about matrix changes
- to use them in calculating link and anchor positions.
- - \pdfsetmatrix{<a> <b> <c> <d>}
- is the equivalent to \pdfliteral{<a> <b> <c> <d> 0 0 cm}
- - \pdfsave is the equivalent to \pdfliteral{q}
- - \pdfrestore is the equivalent to \pdfliteral{Q}
- - \pdfprimitive\TeX-primitive executes the original \TeX-primitive even
- if the command has been redefined since. E.g.
- \let\relax\undefined\pdfprimitive\relax
- expands to \relax.
- \ifpdfprimitive\TeX-primitive is true if \TeX-primitive has its
- original meaning
- - \ifpdfabsnum and \ifpdfabsdim are like \ifnum and \ifdim, but don't
- care about negative numbers
- - shell escape: if the first character of a filename for \openin,
- \openout \input is a pipe symbol (|), the filename is assumed to be a
- request for a pipe to a command line that is given in the rest of the
- filename
- - draftmode: With \pdfdraftmode=1 or the commandline switch -draftmode
- pdfTeX doesn't write the output pdf and doesn't actually read any
- images, thus speeding up compilations when you know you need an extra
- run but don't care about the output, e.g. just to get the BibTeX
- references right
- - \pdfpxdimen (introduced in 1.30) is now a real dimension parameter. It
- allows one base dimensions on pixels. 1px defaults to 1bp (or 72dpi),
- but can be changed with the \pdfpxdimen primitive:
- \pdfpxdimen=1in % 1 dpi
- \divide\pdfpxdimen by 96 % 96 dpi
- \hsize=1200px
- Now \hsize is (1in/96)*1200
- - \pdflastlink returns the object number of the last \pdfstartlink
- - \pdfsavepos now works in DVI mode
-- Fonts:
- - support for subfonts: This creates all needed map entries for subfonts
- automatically and handles Unicode mappings
- - ToUnicode entries for Type1 fonts (patch 580)
-- HZ:
- - added patch 462: HZ font expansion in autoexpand mode now produces
- smaller pdf files, as it works by modififying the text matrix for
- single fonts instead of embedding many expanded font versions.
- Therefore HZ now can be used also for TrueType fonts and even for
- non-embedded fonts (e.g. Times-Roman)
-- Bugfixes:
- - the PDF statistics in the log are now correct
- - added JFIF detection patch to writejpg.c (bug 548)
- - bugfix: invalid pdf created if font name contains space (509)
- - bugfix: truetype OS/2 v3 fonts (594)
- - bugfix: Type1C (CFF) fonts of embedded pdfs didn't get replaced
