Changelog: VERSION 1.22.4 ============== Troff ----- o The `hy' request has been extended. Value 16 enables hyphenation before the last character, and value 32 enables hyphenation after the first character. PDFPIC ------ o PDFPIC has been corrected so the behaviour is the same whether you use the PostScript or PDF drivers. However, this means that any documents which were written using the old behaviour will not be rendered correctly if using the PDF driver with the new version. The change would mean that documents which relied on the previous behaviour are likely to have a gap underneath the image which was not there before. If you see this effect there are three ways you can restore the previous behaviour: Add the line ".nr PDFPIC_NOSPACE 1" to the document before the first call to .PDFPIC. If it is just a single document which exhibits this behaviour you can run groff adding "-rPDFPIC_NOSPACE=1" to the command line. If you have many documents which rely on the previous behaviour you can set an environment variable "export GROFF_PDFPIC_NOSPACE=1" which will restore the previous behaviour for all runs. Note that this change has no effect if you were using .PDFPIC with the PostScript driver--only if you used it with the PDF driver. Gropdf ------ o Type 1 font loading is fixed to handle newer Ghostscript versions. o Handling of glyphs above position 255 is improved to allow many more glyphs to be used. o New macros .pdftransition and .pdfpause are introduced to allow creation of presentation slides. Partially backward-compatible with present.tmac, specifically the PAUSE, BLOCKS and BLOCKE commands. Supports all the transition types introduced in PDF v1.5 (see the gropdf man page). Miscellaneous ------------- o A new 'configure' option --with-compatibility-wrappers controls how groff compatibility wrappers for vendor-provided non-GNU macro sets are installed (see ./configure --help). o eqn2graph, grap2graph, and pic2graph now attempt to adapt to very old installed versions of the ImageMagick and GraphicsMagick programs "convert". They search the output of convert's "-help" option, and use "-trim" if that string is found; otherwise, the old "-crop 0x0" method (which produces incompatible results on versions that _do_ support "-trim") is used. The programs emit a warning to standard error if the search fails and the old method is used. o eqn2graph no longer supports the "-unsafe" option. It did nothing. o groffer now supports the output of XHTML. Use the "--xhtml" or "--mode=xhtml" command-line options to generate it. o Much work has been done, and is ongoing, to make groff's man pages better examples for man page writers to follow. groff_man(7) itself has been expanded and largely rewritten to more precisely document the macro package's behavior and to be more helpful and accessible to man page writers who may never read any other groff documentation. |
