pdfTEX: Support JPEG Exif as well as JFIF; do not even emit a warning if
\pdfinclusionerrorlevel is negative; sync with xpdf 3.04.
LuaTEX: New library newtokenlib for scanning tokens; bug fixes in the normal
random number generator and other places.
XeTEX: Image handling fixes; xdvipdfmx binary looked for first as a sibling
to xetex; internal XDV opcodes changed.
MetaPost: New numbersystem binary; new Japanese-enabled upmpost and
updvitomp programs, analogous to up*tex.
Infrastructure: The fmtutil script has been reimplemented to read
fmtutil.cnf on a per-tree basis, analogous to updmap. Web2C mktex* scripts
(including mktexlsr, mktextfm, mktexpk) now prefer programs in their own
directory, instead of always using the existing PATH.
The package fmtcount.sty provides commands that display the value of a
LaTeX counter in a variety of formats (ordinal, text, hexadecimal,
decimal, octal, binary etc). The package offers some multilingual
support; configurations for use in English (both British and American
usage), French, German, Portuguese and Spanish documents are provided.
This package was originally provided as part of the author's datetime
package, but is now distributed separately.
