Corrects a long-standing bug that when the main file uses bibtex, and uses include for subdocuments, changes in bibliography citations did not always trigger a rerun of bibtex. 2. Fixed a problem that latexmk did not detect changed aux files etc on a small document when the run of (pdf)latex was within the 1-second granularity of filetimes. 3. Improved start-up times on some large documents by avoiding unnecessary recalculations of md5 checksums. 4. Deals better with eps-to-pdf conversions reported by epstopdf package. 5. Minor fixes and improvements. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://tug.ctan.org/tex-archive/support/latexmk .

CTAN Update: pdfcomment
by CTAN Announcements 30 Nov '09

30 Nov '09

On Mon, 30 Nov 2009 Josef Kleber submitted an update to the pdfcomment package. Location on CTAN: /macros/latex/contrib/pdfcomment Summary description: A user-friendly interface to PDF annotations License type: lppl 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 and XeLaTeX. Unfortunately, support of PDF annotations by PDF viewers is sparse to nonexistent. The reference viewer for the development of this package is Adobe Reader. License: LPPL Changes in v1.5b: - new option deadline -> new list styles with deadline feature request by: Michael Niedermair ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/pdfcomment . More information is at http://tug.ctan.org/info/?id=pdfcomment (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 .
