CTAN update: grayhints
by CTAN Announcements 03 Nov '18

03 Nov '18

Donald P. Story submitted an update to the grayhints package. Version number: 2018-11-01 License type: lppl1.2 Summary description: Produce ‘gray hints’ to a variable text field Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package provides JavaScript code snippets to create 'gray hints'. Gray hints, as I term them, are text that appears initially in a text field that gives a short hint as to what the contents of the text field should be; for example, a text field might contain the hint 'First Name', or a date field might read 'yyyy/mm/dd'. As soon as the field comes into focus, the hint disappears. It reappears when the field is blurred and the user did not enter any text into the field. What's New (2018/11/01) Revised package to work correctly with PDF-XChange Editor (not PDF-XChange View). Improved code for handling the case where the user commits date by pressing the Enter key (the data is committed, but the field does not blur). Some commands for customizing the user experience in the case of pressing the Enter key to commit. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/grayhints More information is at https://www.ctan.org/pkg/grayhints ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Thanks for the upload.

CTAN update: pdfcomment
by CTAN Announcements 02 Nov '18

02 Nov '18

Josef Kleber submitted an update to the pdfcomment package. Version number: 2.4a License type: lppl1.3 Summary description: A user-friendly interface to pdf annotations Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For a long time pdflatex has offered the command `pdfannot` for inserting arbitrary PDF annotations. However, the command is presented in a form where additional knowledge of the definition of the PDF format is indispensable. This package is an answer to the – occasional – questions in newsgroups, about how one could use the comment function of Adobe Reader. At least for the writer of LaTeX code, the package offers a convenient and user-friendly means of using `pdfannot` to provide comments in PDF files. Since version v1.1, pdfcomment.sty also supports: LaTeX -> dvips -> ps2pdf, LaTeX -> dvipdfmx, XeLaTeX and LuaLaTeX Unfortunately, support of PDF annotations by PDF viewers may vary. The reference viewer for the development of this package is Adobe Reader. License: **LPPL** Changes in v2.4a: * fix issue #22: fix Wrong driver 'hpdftex.def' warning when using `lualatex` ---------------------------------------------------------------------- The package's Catalogue entry can be viewed at http://www.ctan.org/pkg/pdfcomment The package's files themselves can be inspected at http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/pdfcomment ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Thanks for the upload.

CTAN update: dvisvgm
by CTAN Announcements 02 Nov '18

02 Nov '18

Martin Gieseking submitted an update to the dvisvgm package. Version number: 2.6.1 License type: gpl3+ Summary description: Convert DVI, EPS, and PDF files to Scalable Vector Graphics format (SVG) Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- dvisvgm 2.6 is a small feature release that adds the new command-line option --page-hashes. It allows for skipping the conversion of a page if its content hasn’t changed and the corresponding SVG file already exists. When this option is given, dvisvgm computes a hash value from the DVI pages and adds it to the name of the SVG file to be written. As the hash value only changes if the contents of the DVI page change, there’s normally no need to convert existing SVG files again which should speed up the conversion of large documents significantly. For more information on this topic and further changes, see https://dvisvgm.de/News. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- The package's Catalogue entry can be viewed at http://www.ctan.org/pkg/dvisvgm The package's files themselves can be inspected at http://mirror.ctan.org/dviware/dvisvgm ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Thanks for the upload.
