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 -- pdfTeX uses libpng 1.2.14 - -------------------------------------------------- -pdfTeX 3.141592-1.30.6 was released on 2006-02-16 -- bugfix: updated xpdf to 3.01pl2 - -------------------------------------------------- -pdfTeX 3.141592-1.30.5 was released on 2005-12-04 -- bugfix: \pdfximage prints the file name twice (bug 441) -- bugfix: buffer overflow with \pdfmatch (bug 444) -- bugfix: updated xpdf to 3.01pl1 - -------------------------------------------------- -pdfTeX 3.141592-1.30.4 was released on 2005-10-17 -- bugfix: whitespaces in filenames didn't work on Unix anymore (bug 377) -- bugfix: two \immediates cancel themselves (bug 437) -- bugfix: wrong file name in error messages of image inclusion (bug 435) - -------------------------------------------------- -pdfTeX 3.141592-1.30.3 was released on 2005-09-04 -- bugfix: \write18 - -------------------------------------------------- -pdfTeX 3.141592-1.30.2 was released on 2005-08-25 -- fixed some build problems and minor bugs introduced in 1.30.1 - -------------------------------------------------- -pdfTeX 3.141592-1.30.1 was released on 2005-08-21 -- the eTeX extensions can now be enabled with the cmdline switch -etex -- pdfTeX uses xpdf 3.01 - -------------------------------------------------- -pdfTeX 3.141592-1.30.0 was released on 2005-08-01 -- pdfxtex (introduced with 1.20a) is gone; all extensions are now in pdf(e)tex. -- Some primitives have been renamed; the old names will still work, but are - deprecated and some give a warning that they are obsolete: - \pdfoptionpdfminorversion -> \pdfminorversion - \pdfoptionalwaysusepdfpagebox -> \pdfforcepagebox - \pdfoptionpdfinclusionerrorlevel -> \pdfinclusionerrorlevel -- pdftex knows two new units: - - new Didot (1nd=0.375mm) - - new Cicero (1nc=12nd) -- New primitives: - - Inclusion of pngs has been greatly improved: It now does - - alpha channel and transparency (only if %!PDF >=1.4) - - 16-bit colour (only if %!PDF >=1.5); this must be enabled by setting - \pdfimagehicolor to 1. - - gamma correction; this must be enabled by setting \pdfimageapplygamma to - 1. The device gamma is taken from \pdfgamma. If no embedded value can be - found in the png image, then the value of \pdfimagegamma is used instead. - - fast direct embedding of png streams, if their structure allows this; the - automatic fall-back is to decompress and re-compress as before. - - pdfTeX now has an interface to the precise system time (if available) as an - aid in benchmarking TeX macro code. - - \pdfelapsedtime is a read-only integer that (initially) returns the - amount of time passed since the start of this run. This amount is given - in `scaled seconds': the value 65536 counts as one second. If more time - has passed than 32767 seconds, (2^31)-1 will be returned. - - \pdfresettimer updates the internal timer, such that subsequent calls to - \pdfelapsedtime will restart from 0. - - pdfTeX can now generate random numbers: - - \pdfuniformdeviate <count> generates a uniformly distributed random - integer value between 0 (inclusive) and <count> (exclusive). - - \pdfnormaldeviate expands to a random integer value with a mean of 0 and - a unit of 65536. - - \pdfrandomseed allows access to the current seed value. - - \pdfsetrandomseed <count> sets the random seed to a specific value. - - \pdfnoligatures\f disables ligatures for the loaded font \f. - - Escaping strings: - - \pdfescapestring{<a>} escapes the string <a> so that it can be used as - PDF string. - - \pdfescapename{<a>} escapes the string <a> so that it can be used as PDF - name. - - \pdfescapehex{<a>} converts the string <a> to uppercase hexadecimal - representation. - - \pdfunescapehex{<b>} reverses the effect of \pdfescapehex - - \pdfcreationdate expands to the date string that pdfTeX uses in the info - dict as default. - - \pdffilemoddate{<file>} expands to the modification date of <file> in the - same format as \pdfcreationdate (PDF date format). - - \pdffilesize{<file>} expands to the size of <file> as string. - - \pdfmdfivesum{<abc>} or \pdfmdfivesum file {<file>} calculates the md5 - sum (of a string or a file) and converts it to uppercase hexadecimal format - (same as \pdfescapehex). - - \pdffiledump [offset <int>] [length <int>] <general text> - Expands to a hex dump of the file given in <general text>, starting at - given offset or 0 with given length. - - \pdfshellescape is a read-only integer that is 1 if \write18 is enabled, 0 - otherwise. - - \pdfxformname <object number>, which expands to the number in the - corresponding form XObject name. - - \leftmarginkern <box number> and \rightmarginkern <box number> tell the - margin kern at the left and right side of the horizontal list stored in box - <box number>. - - \pdfpkmode is a token register that sets the MF mode for pixel font - generation. The contents of this register is dumped into the format, so one - can (optionally) preset it e.g. in part of pdftexconfig.tex. - - \pdftracingfonts: An integer variable controlling the tracing of font - expansion. It is zero by default; then we get a log (with fontexpansion) - like this - ...\tenrm t - ...\tenrm (+20) e - Without font expansion, this default should be compatible with TeX's - original log output. - If \pdftracingfonts is set to 1 (or greater), we get a more verbose log: - ...\xivtt (cmtt10@14.0pt) t - ...\xivtt (cmtt10+20@14.0pt) e - See also bug 304. -- New experimental primitives: - - \pdfmatch [icase] [subcount <number>}] {<pattern>}{<string>} - Implements pattern matching using the POSIX regex. - It returns the same values as \pdfstrcmp, but with the following semantics: - -1: error case (invalid pattern, ...) - 0: no match - 1: match found - Options: - * icase: case insensitive matching - * subcount: it sets the table size for found subpatterns. - A number "-1" resets the table size to the start default. - - \pdflastmatch <number> - The result of \pdfmatch is stored in an array. The entry "0" contains the - match, the following entries submatches. The positions of the matches are - also available. They are encoded: - <position> "->" <match string> - The position "-1" with an empty string indicates that this entry is not - set. - - \pdfstrcmp{<a>}{<b>} compares two strings and returns the strings "0" if - <a> equals <b>, "-1" if <a> is less than <b>, "1" if <a> is greater than - <b> -- The primitive \pdfmovechars has been removed (bug 294) -- Bugfixes: - - empty strings are not supressed anymore (bug 335) - - \unhboxing and character protusion didn't work well together (bug 292) - - --jobname didn't work if there was no filename at all (bug 302) - - Some problem with fonts on solaris (bug 315) - - Dangling font objects with non-replacable fonts (bug 311). - - \pdfxform didn't work with box>255 (bug 310) - - cmap: unicode ???? is mapped to multiple glyphs (bug 306). -- pdfTeX uses zlib 1.2.3 - ------------------------------------------------- -pdfTeX 3.141592-1.21a was released on 2005-02-04 -- ttf2afm 1.0: - - added support for refering to glyphs via unicode in encoding files (ie 'uniXXX') - - added some more info to the AFM output - - some minor bug fixes - - a short documentation available -- pdftex now understand forms 'uniXXXX' in encoding files (only makes sense - with TrueType fonts) -- added subset tag for TrueType fonts -- PDF strings are now printed as following: - (This is a string) -> (This is a string) - This is a string -> (This is a string) - <a1b245c1a2...> -> <a1b245c1a2...> -- check for double newline char to get rid of empty lines in PDF output -- Fixed a bug in the scanning of map lines introduced in the fix of bug #242 in - 1.20b. -- Fixed three problems in xpdf; xpdf is now 3.00pl3 -- \ifeof18 is a simple method to test if \write18 is enabled. -- a few extensions in pdfxtex: - - \pdflastximagecolordepth returns the last color depth - - \pdfximage supports a keyword "colorspace" following an object number - representing a ColorSpace object - - \pdfstrcmp compares two strings - - \pdfescapestring/\pdflastescapedstring provide a way to escape string - - \pdffirstlineheight/\pdflastlinedepth/\pdfeachlineheight/\pdfeachlinedepth - allow fixing line dimen - - patches from Taco - - px dimen unit - - tagcode patch - - quitvmode patch - ------------------------------------------------- -pdfTeX 3.141592-1.20b was released on 2004-12-22 -- Fixed some minor bugs, mostly with hz -- The info line "output format initialized to PDF/DVI" isn't shown anymore, as - this info wasn't reliable (bug 112). -- Now the PDF-related statistics (PDF objects...) in the .log file is only - shown in PDF output mode. It start with a line "PDF statistics:". -- \pdfimageresolution is not limited to 2400 [dpi] anymore, can now be between - 0 and 65535 [dpi]. -- pdfTeX uses xpdf 3.00pl2 -- pdfTeX uses libpng 1.2.8, which fixes some png-related bugs. - ------------------------------------------------- -pdfTeX 3.141592-1.20a was released on 2004-09-06 -- There is a new program pdfxtex, which contains experimental features which - might end up in pdftex in the future. -- Most distributions now use eTeX as the default engine, so when you call - pdftex you will get pdfeTeX. Most distributions now also use pdfTeX as the - default engine, so when you call latex you will get pdfeTeX running LaTeX.:-) -- We are setting up pdfTeX as a project at sarovar - (http://sarovar.org/projects/pdftex/). Please report bugs etc. through the - site. -- Support for the file pdftex.cfg is gone completely. All parameters that had - previously been set by it can be set through primitives; their values are - dumped to the format file. -- The searchpath for encoding and mapfiles has been changed. - See http://tug.org/pipermail/tex-live/2004-January/004734.html and - http://tug.org/pipermail/tex-live/2004-January/004791.html -- eTeX is now version 2.2, incorporating the last changes to TeX (3.141592). -- New options for \pdfmapfile: - General functionality: Map items (map files, new: also single map lines; see - \pdfmapline) are put in list of pending map items. During the next shipout, - pending map items are sequentially scanned for their map entries, and an - internal map entry database is updated, using the modes below. Then the list - of pending map items is cleared. Map entries of fonts already in use are left - untouched. New: All \pdfmapfile and \pdfmapline commands can also be given - after shipout of the first page. - - \pdfmapfile {foo.map} clears the list of pending map items and starts a new - list with the only pending file foo.map. When the map entry lines of - foo.map are scanned, duplicate map entries are ignored and a warning is - issued. This is the old behaviour. - - \pdfmapfile {+foo.map} puts foo.map in the list of pending map items. When - the map entry lines of foo.map are scanned, duplicate map entries are - ignored and a warning is issued. - - \pdfmapfile {=foo.map} puts foo.map in the list of pending map items. When - foo.map is scanned, matching map entries in database are replaced by new - entries from foo.map. - - \pdfmapfile {-foo.map} puts foo.map in the list of pending map items. When - foo.map is scanned, matching map entries are deleted from database. - - \pdfmapfile {} clears the list of pending map items. It does not affect map - entries already registered into the database. This is the old behaviour. -- New command \pdfmapline {line}. It's like \pdfmapfile but here you can set - single map lines like in the map files directly. The modifiers (+-=) have the - same effect as with \pdfmapfile. -- Simplified the handling of the 14 Type 1 "standard fonts" (Times, - Helvetica...): They are now more or less handled like any other Type 1 font. - See http://www.ntg.nl/pipermail/ntg-pdftex/2004-July/000648.html -- hz: So far the font expansion feature required that the user must be able to - create expanded tfms (eg cmr10+10.tfm). Now font expansion can be used - without creating these tfms. - See http://www.ntg.nl/pipermail/ntg-pdftex/2004-May/000504.html -- hz: Changed \pdffontexpand primitive --> the expand factor is now fixed to - 1000 and the argument is ignored. This will lead to spurious texts of "1000" - in your output if you compile old documents. -- New command \pdftexbanner which returns a string with the full banner of the - current binary (e.g. "This is pdfTeX, Version 3.141592-1.20a (Web2C 7.5.3) - kpathsea version 3.5.3") -- The PTEX.FullBanner key is now inserted in the document info dict instead of - the catalog. Newer versions of Acrobat display it. -- Now includes support for encTeX. -- Extended \pdfannot to use reserveobjnum/useobjnum - See http://www.ntg.nl/pipermail/ntg-pdftex/2004-March/000424.html -- Bugfix: pdfTeX would read an .xpdfrc when including pdfs. - See http://tug.org/pipermail/pdftex/2004-March/004835.html -- Bugfix: The strings in /ID would sometimes be empty. -- Bugfix: Even when mapfiles or encodings or PostScript font files were - missing, pdfTeX still produced a (most often corrupt) pdf. Now it aborts with - an error in these cases. -- numerous small bugfixes. -- pdfTeX now uses the GNU libavl from Ben Pfaff for managing of fontmap - entries. -- pdfTeX uses zlib 1.2.1 -- pdfTeX uses xpdf 3.00 -- pdfTeX uses libpng 1.2.7 - ------------------------------------------------- -pdfTeX 3.141592-1.11b was released on 2003-10-06 -- Bugfix: The handling of /Rotate produced displaced images when /Rotate was 90 - or 270. - ------------------------------------------------- -pdfTeX 3.141592-1.11a was released on 2003-08-02 -- New command \pdftrailer analogue to \pdfcatalog whose argument ends up in the - trailer dictionary. -- The behaviour when an included pdf has a newer version than the one specified - with \pdfoptionpdfminorversion can be controlled by the new internal integer - \pdfoptionpdfinclusionerrorlevel: If it's 0, pdfTeX gives only a warning; if - it's 1, it raises an error. - This can also be set in pdftex.cfg with pdf_inclusion_errorlevel -- The syntax for outlines has been extended to allow attributes: - <outline spec> --> <attr spec> <action spec> [count <number>] <general text> - See http://www.ntg.nl/pipermail/ntg-pdftex/2003-June/000165.html -- The syntax of \pdfobj has been extended: - \pdfobj <object type spec> (h, v, m) - <object type spec> --> reserveobjnum - | [useobjnum <number>] [<attr spec>] [stream [<attr spec>]] <object contents> - <object contents> --> <file spec> - | <general text> - When the optional keyword `reserveobjnum' and `useobjnum' is not given, the - behaviour is unchanged. - See also http://tug.org/mailman/htdig/pdftex/2003-March/003814.html -- Bugfix: /CreationDate didn't care for the timezone and could be fooled. - See http://www.ntg.nl/pipermail/ntg-pdftex/2003-July/000223.html -- Bugfix: The translation of 8-bit characters in included pdfs that had their - eighth bit set sometimes got wrong because of a missing typecast. - See http://www.ntg.nl/pipermail/ntg-pdftex/2003-July/000216.html -- Bugfix: pdfTeX -ini would crash with a minimal file because it didn't read - it's config and so didn't know anything about fonts. - See http://tug.org/pipermail/pdftex/2003-July/004262.html -- Bugfix: \pdfstartlink would produce spurious /NewWindow entries. Also the - syntax of <action spec> and <goto-action spec> has been cleaned up. - See http://www.ntg.nl/pipermail/ntg-pdftex/2003-June/000167.html -- Bugfix: \pdffontattr was not used for T3 fonts. - See http://tug.org/pipermail/pdftex/2003-June/004127.html -- Bugfix: The cropbox of an included pdf would sometimes not be used. - See http://tug.org/pipermail/pdftex/2003-May/004037.html -- pdfTeX uses xpdf 2.02 - ------------------------------------------------- -pdfTeX 3.141592-1.10b was released on 2003-02-26 -- The numbers in transformation matrices are allways written with maximum - precision (see http://tug.org/pipermail/pdftex/2003-February/003596.html). -- Incorporated the new version of TeX: 3.141592 -- Bugfix: Numbers in pdfs would sometimes be just a wee bit of (changed - implementation of pdftoepdf.convertNumToPDF). -- Bugfix: When setting the /Producer, /Creator or /CreationDate keys with - \pdfinfo pdfTeX would also insert default values which caused duplicate keys - in the info dict (see - http://tug.org/pipermail/pdftex/2003-February/003524.html). -- The reading of mapfiles is much faster (see - http://tug.org/pipermail/pdftex/2002-July/002843.html). -- Bugfix: AR5 had problems with the CTM when displaying in "fit visible" mode - (see http://tug.org/pipermail/pdftex/2002-May/002688.html). -- Bugfix: str_in_str had wrong indices (see - http://tug.org/pipermail/pdftex/2002-March/002367.html). -- Bugfix: decimal_digits defaulted to 0, which caused problems with included - images when including pdfs (see - http://tug.org/pipermail/pdftex/2003-February/003518.html). - It now defaults to 4. -- Bugfix: the type of included images was decided based only on the extensions; - now pdfTeX looks for magic bytes at the start of files (see - http://tug.org/pipermail/pdftex/2003-February/003519.html) - ------------------------------------------------ -pdfTeX 3.14159-1.10a was released on 2003-01-16 -- pdfTeX is now able to produce pdf1.4 (which is also the default) and has - almost complete support for including pdf1.4 files: - - Additional attributes like MetaData are copied from included pdfs. - - Currently the Page Group attribute (see sections 7.3.6 and 7.5.5 of the pdf - 1.4 reference) of included pdfs is NOT copied (as we don't know how to - handle this when imposing pdfs). - This means including pdfs with transparency features will work as long as - the included pdf doesn't use Page Groups; if it does, the result might not - be what is expected (One application known to use Page Groups is Adobe - Illustrator v9++). The distributed pdfTeX binaries will give a warning - about any occurance of a Page Group in an included pdf and ignore the Page - Group (thus producing syntactically correct pdfs but probably not the - intended output). - Acrobat 5++ and newer versions of Jaws display files without Page Groups - correctly, so this might not really be a problem. - See pdftoepdf.cc for preprocessor flags which allow this behaviour to be - changed (copying the Page Group (most likely producing incorrect pdf) or - treating Page Groups as errors). -- The new primitive \pdfoptionpdfminorversion sets the pdf version of the - generated file and the latest allowed pdf version of included pdfs: - \pdfoptionpdfminorversion=3 - tells pdfTeX to set the pdf version to 1.3 and allows only included pdfs with - versions <= 1.3 . - The default for \pdfoptionpdfminorversion is 4 for pdf 1.4 - This must appear before any data is written to the generated pdf file, so - you should put it at the very start of your files. - This can also be set in pdftex.cfg with pdf_minorversion -- It is now possible to specify the pdf page box to use when including pdfs. - The syntax has been extended: - \pdfximage [<image attr spec>] <general text> (h, v, m) - <image attr spec> --> [<rule spec>] [<attr spec>] [<page spec>] [<pdf box spec>] - <pdf box spec> --> mediabox|cropbox|bleedbox|trimbox|artbox - The default is cropbox (which defaults to mediabox), to be compatible with - previous versions of pdfTeX. - The page box specified at \pdfximage can be globally overridden with the - config parameter always_use_pdfpagebox and the command - \pdfoptionalwaysusepdfpagebox <integer>, where 0 is the default (use whatever - is specified with \pdfximage), 1 is media, 2 is crop, 3 is bleed, 4 is trim - and 5 is artbox. This can only be set once per object, i.e. the value used at - \pdfximage is remembered. - See the pdf reference for an explanation of the boxes. -- The support for the inclusion of jpeg images has been extended to allow the - inclusion of JPEG/Exif files which are produced by digital photo cameras - (thanks to Hartmut Henkel). -- The support for the inclusion of tif images has been removed as it was of - limited use (it worked only for gray-scale and rgb images) and produced wrong - results (all other images types where treated as rgb images). - Tif images can be converted on *nix on-the-fly to pngs with the help of - ImageMagick, epstopdf.sty or pdftex.def v0.4 or newer, and this rule: - \DeclareGraphicsRule{.tif}{png}{.png}{`convert #1 `basename #1 .tif`.png} -- The extensions for pdf encryption have been removed, since they make the - pdfTeX code overly complex. Those needing pdf encryption are encouraged to - produce a standalone program for encrypting pdfs. -- pdfTeX now writes a usage statistic about the pdfTeX specific memory to the - log. -- numerous bugfixes, most of them in the inclusion of pdfs. -- pdfTeX uses xpdf 2.01 -- pdfTeX uses libpng 1.2.5 - ---------------------------------------------------------------------- -pdfTeX 3.14159-1.00a-pretest-20011127-ojmw was released on 2002-01-29 - ----------------------------------------------------------------- -pdfTeX 3.14159-1.00a-pretest-20010806 was released on 2001-08-06 - ----------------------------------------------------------------- -pdfTeX 3.14159-1.00a-pretest-20010804 was released on 2001-08-04 - -(This file public domain.) -// vim: tw=79:ts=2:expandtab:autoindent |
