-dvipdfmx and xdvipdfmx for TeX Live
-===================================
-
-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.
-
-Mailing list for bug reports and all discussion:
-https://lists.tug.org/dvipdfmx; anyone can join the list, but it is not
-necessary to join to post. Archives are public.
-
-xdvipdfmx
-=========
-xdvipdfmx is an extended version of dvipdfmx, and is now incorporated in
-the same sources.
-
-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.
-
-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.
-
-
-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
- ------------
-
- Currently, dvipdfmx is distributed as part of TeX Live. For TeX Live users,
- please refer to the following site
-
- https://www.tug.org/texlive/svn/
-
- for an instruction on how to obtain and build the dvipdfmx program.
-
-3. Random number generating function
- ---------------------------------
-
- Prefixes of font names are calculated by using a function which
- generates pseudo random numbers. In order to obtain a unique
- prefix on all platforms when current time is common, a special
- function MT19937, coded by Takuji Nishimura and Makoto Matsumoto,
- is used. The header of the C program by Takuji Nishimura and
- Makoto Matsumoto is the following:
-
- A C-program for MT19937, with initialization improved 2002/1/26.
- Coded by Takuji Nishimura and Makoto Matsumoto.
-
- Before using, initialize the state by using init_genrand(seed)
- or init_by_array(init_key, key_length).
