-dvipdfmx and xdvipdfmx for TeX Live
-===================================
-
-xdvipdfmx
-=========
-
-xdvipdfmx is an extended version of dvipdfmx; see dvipdfmx's README for
-more information.
-
-The extensions provided by xdvipdfmx provide support for the Extended DVI
-(.xdv) format used by xetex, including support for platform-native fonts
-and the xetex graphics primitives, as well as Unicode/OpenType text.
-
-Like its direct ancestor dvipdfmx, this is free software and may be
-redistributed under the terms of the GNU General Public License,
-version 2 or (at your option) any later version.
-
-There is a hope to merge xdvipdfmx into dvipdfmx.
-
-Jonathan Kew mentions that in the past, XeTeX used a Mac-specific
-program xdv2pdf as the backend instead of xdvipdfmx. xdv2pdf supported
-a couple of special effects that are not yet available through
-xdvipdfmx: the Quartz graphics-based shadow support, AAT "variation"
-fonts like Skia, transparency as an attribute of font color, maybe other
-things. It would be nice for those things to continue to be supported,
-if anyone is looking for some nontrivial but not-impossible job and
-happens across this file ...
-
-The dvipdfmx Project
-====================
-
-Copyright (C) 2002-2013 by Jin-Hwan Cho, Shunsaku Hirata, and
-Matthias Franz, the dvipdfmx project team. This package is released
-under the GNU GPL, version 2, or (at your option) any later version.
-
-dvipdfmx is now maintained as part of TeX Live.

-
-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.

-
-
-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.

-
-
-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
