CTAN Update: adjustbox
by CTAN Announcements 13 Aug '11

13 Aug '11

On Sat, 13 Aug 2011 Martin Scharrer submitted an update to the adjustbox package. License type: lppl Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This major update provides the following new features: * Additional provided box macros: lapbox, marginbox, minsizebox, maxsizebox and phantombox. * Additional key options for adjustbox which can be exported for includegraphics as well. * Now uses the authors other package 'collectbox' which is based on the original used code. * The trimming operation is now done using only TeX code. * The clipping operation is now implemented using native pdftex commands. Other output drivers will still use PGF as back-end. * Now uses e-TeX glueexpr by default to parse all length arguments, but can be configured to use the 'calc' package or the pgfsetlength macro of PGF. Older documents might require now the 'pgfmath' option to be used if they included pgfmath expressions. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/adjustbox . More information is at http://www.ctan.org/pkg/adjustbox (if the package is new it may take a day for that information to appear). We are supported by the TeX Users Group http://www.tug.org .
