CTAN Update: UPmethodology
by CTAN Announcements 27 Dec '13

27 Dec '13

Stéphane Galland submitted an update to the UPmethodology package. Version: 20131214 License type: lgpl Summary description: The bundle allows the user to create Unified Process methodology (UP or RUP) based documents. The style provides document versioning, document history, document authors, document validators, specification description, task management, and several helping macros. Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- tex-upmethodology can be used with latex. In the previous versions, only pdflatex could be used. This release adds the macros chapterfull and sectionfull which allow the user to control the labels associated with a chapter and a section (in the core text, in the toc, and in the headers), and adds the macro ewpageintoc to help to avoid orphan lines in the toc. The environment 'description' is redefined for enabling the specification of the separating text between the description's items and the description's texts. Removes any reference to the package 'fancyhdr'. The macro backcovermessage is added to insert a message at the bottom of the inner page of the back cover. Minor bugs are fixed in the name's formatting functions. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/upmethodology/ More information is at http://www.ctan.org/pkg/upmethodology We are supported by the TeX Users Group http://www.tug.org .

CTAN Update: AutoLaTeX
by CTAN Announcements 24 Dec '13

24 Dec '13

Stéphane Galland submitted an update to the AutoLaTeX package. Version number: 28.0 License type: gpl Summary description: Major feature enhancements and bug fixes. Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- The translator from SVG+layers to PDF is fixed to not create images that are too large for LaTeX lengths. In the previous versions, Inkscape was used to generate an EPS file which is converted to PDF, but in some cases, graphical elements are lost in the PDF file. To avoid this problem, Inkscape is now directly generating the PDF files. AutoLaTeX is now able to output detailled warnings on the CLI. This feature may be enabled with the '--Wall' command line option. Major bugs are fixed: the string encoding when invoking system commands (exec, system, etc.), the enabling state of the Gedit's components. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/support/autolatex/ More information is at http://www.ctan.org/pkg/autolatex We are supported by the TeX Users Group http://www.tug.org .
