The spotcolor package +by Jens Elstner is a first attempt to introduce the use of +spot colors with pdfLaTeX. The xespotcolor package is a +reimplementation of this package so to be usable with +XeLaTeX. As such, it has the same user interface and +the same capabilities. + +Currently, xdvipdfm-x does not support the spot command, +which is needed in order to be able top use commands like +the following one: + +\definecolor{Spots}{spotcolor}{SOMECOLOR,1.0} + +File PATCHES contains patches that should be applied to the +source code of xdvipdfm-x so to be able to deal with such +commands. Also, file spotcolor-test.tex is test file based on +the documentation of the original package. Finally, file +spotcolor-test.pdf cannot be produced with a current TeX +installation. When the source code of xdvipdfm-x will be +updated, then the contents of this folder will change. + +Apostolos Syropoulos +2014/11/13 |
