Major changes:
- Add -E option that enables DVIPDFM emulation mode in DVIPDFMx.
- Don't try to convert included PDF files whose version number
is higher than output file version. (If run as dvipdfm,
conversion still occurs.)
- Added dvipdfm compatibility mode. This mode is triggered
if dvipdfmx is called as "dvipdfm", and likewise extractbb
as "ebb". (The latter mode was already present.)
- Made predefined paper sizes match values given by libpaper.
Changes since 20050831:
- Xref and object stream were implemented for PDF v1.5 or higher to reduce the
size of the PDF output.
- New program "xbb" is included, which generates ".xbb" file containing the
bounding box information. For bitmap images, DVIPDFMx generates the same
result as pdfTeX if ".xbb" is used, and as DVIPDFM if ".bb" is used.
- Many bug fixes.
Major changes since 20031116:
- bug fixes in subfont scheme or TrueType fonts with CIDType2 format.
- embedded ICC profile support for JPEG and PNG.
- Accept "unicode" encoding keyword in fontmap files for TrueType and
Type1 fonts.
Approved by kei@ and wiz@.
Changes since 20021230:
* Fixed a bug on the algorithm converting arc to cubic bezier
curves in arc() (tpic.c), which is reported by Werner Lemberg.
* PNG support completely rewritten. Color pallete images are
now not converted to 24-bit RGB, colorspace Indexed is used
instead. Added tRNS and alpha chunnel (transparency) support.
Experimental gAMA, cHRM and sRGB support.
* Fixed bug that dvipdfmx stops with error "Invalid Subr Index"
when embedding CFF OpenType font.
* Add a missing line including pdfparse.h in dvi.c, which is
reported by Akira Kakuto.
* Changed the default font map files for teTeX 2.x as suggested
by Haruhiko Okumura.
* A bug on the paper size checking routine of dvi_paper_size()
in dvi.c is fixed, which is reported by Haruhiko Okumura.
* A bug on the kerning routine of dev_set_string() in pdfdev.c is
fixed, which is reported by Edward G.J. Lee.
* Changed to embed images only one time.
* Updated configure.in and config.h.in to support WORDS_BIGENDIAN
and SIZEOF_SHORT, SIZEOF_INT, SIZEOF_LONG.
* A faked font name was used for TrueType fonts without any PS
font name as suggested by Hin-Tak Leung.
* Built-in codes (originally from libgcrypt-1.1.42) was used
for PDF encryption instead of the OpenSSL library as suggested
by Thomas Esser.
* A significant bug reported from Haruhiko Okumura is fixed.
The bug occurs only if compiled with gcc 3.x, not gcc 2.x.
* New feature, hexadecimal Unicode, suggested by iNOUE Koich!
and Akira Kakuto is implemented.
* Fixed bugs on reading and writing OpenType fonts.
* Applied changes for MiKTeX in ps_include() (psimage.c).
* Fixed a bug in cff_charsets_lookup() (cff.c).
* Fixed a bug in string_mode() (pdfdev.c) reported by iNOUE Koich!.
- with config file location fix in the teTeX2-2.0.2, both dvipdfmx of
this package and dvipdfm of teTeX2 work now.
- removed ugly hack to rename config file in installation /
deinstallation stage.
bump PKGREVISION because of this.
It depends on newly imported teTeX2 package.
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 by CID-keyed
font technology. 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.
It has many other features. For further info, visit the projects' web
