The basic idea is very simple: to provide a version of +TeX that can output PDF as an alternative format to +DVI. PDFTeX implements a small number of new +primitives, to switch to PDF output, and to control various +PDF features. +Han The Thanh +worked on PDFTeX throughout his Ph.D. research into +typesetting, and the latest release includes facilities he wrote to +support novel typesetting techniques that he was studying. +<p>Since he completed his studies, Han has had little time to work on +PDFTeX, and day-to-day support is provided by a team of experts +(mostly in Europe). +The latest sources are available on CTAN, and +implementations are available as part of Web2C, as well as in the +teTeX, mikTeX, fpTeX, CMacTeX and TeX live distributions +A version (by the author of CMacTeX) for use with OzTeX is also +available on CTAN. +<p>A mailing list discussing PDFTeX is available; + + subscribe via the + <a href="http://www.tug.org/mailman/listinfo/pdftex">TUG <i>mailman</a> interface</i>. +<dl> +<dt><tt><i>pdftex</i></tt><dd><a href="ftp://cam.ctan.org/tex-archive/systems/pdftex/pdftex.zip">systems/pdftex/pdftex.zip</a> +<dt><tt><i>pdftex for OzTeX</i></tt><dd><a href="ftp://cam.ctan.org/tex-archive/nonfree/systems/mac/pdftex/pdftex_for_oztex.sit.bin">nonfree/systems/mac/pdftex/pdftex_for_oztex.sit.bin</a> +</dl> +<p><p>This question on the Web: <a href="http://www.tex.ac.uk/cgi-bin/texfaq2html?label=pdftex">http://www.tex.ac.uk/cgi-bin/texfaq2html?label=pdftex</a> +</body> |
