CTAN update: hyperxmp
by CTAN Announcements 09 Oct '20

09 Oct '20

Scott Pakin submitted an update to the hyperxmp package. Version number: 5.6 License type: lppl1.3c Summary description: Embed XMP metadata within a LaTeX document Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- XMP (eXtensible Metadata Platform) is a mechanism proposed by Adobe for embedding document metadata within the document itself. The metadata are designed to be easy to extract, even by programs that are oblivious to the document's file format. Most of Adobe's applications store XMP metadata when saving files. Now, with the hyperxmp package, it is trivial for LaTeX document authors to store XMP metadata in their documents as well. hyperxmp integrates seamlessly with hyperref and requires virtually no modifications to documents that already exploit hyperref's mechanisms for specifying PDF metadata. hyperxmp can embed a wide variety of metadata as XMP, including the list of authors, document title, contact information (telephone number, postal address, email address, etc.), copyright statement, keywords, natural language, and much more. hyperxmp is compatible with pdflatex, lualatex, xelatex, latex+dvipdfm, and latex+dvips+Distiller. Version 5.6 of hyperxmp is a bug-fix release. This version no longer crashes when HarfBuzz is used for text shaping; it correctly identifies fonts provided by files containing a space in their name; and it interoperates better with the ifdraft package. Thanks to John H. Lienhard and Tobias Pape for their bug reports and for their help testing the changes to the code. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/hyperxmp More information is at https://www.ctan.org/pkg/hyperxmp ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Thanks for the upload.
