package.
Version number: 1.4
License type: lppl1.3c
Summary description: Draw molecules with easy syntax
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
chemfig v1.4
- many bugs are fixed
- the private character in the macro name is no longer @ but
becomes _ and the prefix of private macros is now CF_
IMPORTANT: this implies for advanced users who have used private
macros to rename them
- all old macros obsolete for more than a year are no longer
defined and will throw a compilation error if used:
setcrambond, setatomsep, setbondoffset, setdoublesep,
setangleincrement, enablefixedbondlength,
disablefixedbondlength, setnodestyle, setbondstyle,
setlewis, setlewisdist, setstacksep, setcompoundstyle,
setarrowdefault, setandsign, setarrowoffset,
setcompoundsep, setarrowlabelsep, enablebondjoin,
disablebondjoin and schemedebug
From now on, the macro setchemfig{<key>=<<values>} should be used
to set parameters
- the syntax chemfig*[][]{} is no longer accepted and becomes
chemfig[<keys>=<values>]{<molecule code>}
- the syntaxes lewis[<coeff>]{<code>} and Lewis[<coeff>]{<code>}
are no longer accepted and become lewis[<key>=<values>]{<code>}
and Lewis[<key>=<values>]{<code>}

Summary description: Convert DVI, EPS, and PDF files to Scalable Vector Graphics format (SVG)
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
The main new feature of this release is the command-line option “--optimize”
which allows for optimization of the generated SVG tree after it has
completely been built from the DVI data. The optimizations are performed by
running separate optimizer modules executed one by one in a given order and
thus transforming the XML tree gradually.
More detailed information on option --optimize, the currently available
optimizer modules, and further enhancements of dvisvgm can be found on
the project website: https://dvisvgm.de/News.

The trigonometrical functions are (for the most part) implemented
via the high level user interface. Future releases will code them
at lower level, for efficiency.

David K. Lewis (Counterfactuals, Blackwell 1973) introduced a sphere
semantics for counterfactual conditionals. He jokingly referred to the
diagrams depicting such sphere models as Ptolemaic astronomy, hence the
name of this package. The macros provided in this package aid in the
construction of sphere model diagrams in the style of Lewis. The macros
all make use of TikZ.

package.
Version number: 4.1
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.
Version 4.1 of hyperxmp is primarily a bug-fix release. The only new
option is pdfpublisher, which names the publisher of the document.

Scott Pakin submitted an update to the
hyperxmp
package.
Version number: 4.0
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, latex+dvips+ps2pdf,
latex+dvipdfm, xelatex, and lualatex.
Version 4.0 of hyperxmp makes some substantial improvements to PDF/A
compatibility. It also adds support for numerous metadata defined in
the PRISM Basic schema: book edition, DOI, file size in bytes, ISBN,
ISSN, issue number, page count, page ranges, type of parent
publication, URL of the document, and volume number.

is a potential source of backwards incompatibilities, but
very likely the risks are very low, and it is, I think, the

Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
ucalgmthesis.cls is a LaTeX class file that produces documents
according to the thesis guidelines of the University of Calgary
Faculty of Graduate Studies.
It uses the memoir class, which provides very powerful and flexible
mechanisms for book design and layout. All memoir commands for changing
chapter and section headings, page layout, fancy foot- and endnotes,
typesetting poems, etc., can be used.
(Memoir is meant as a replacement for the standard LaTeX classes,
so all standard LaTeX commands such as chapter, section, etc.,
still work.) Likewise, any of memoir’s class options can be passed
as options to ucalgmthesis, in particular 12pt to select 12 point type
(11 point is the default).

Claudio Beccari submitted an update to the
curve2e
package.
Version: 2.0.1 2019-03-29
License: lppl1.3c
Summary description: Extensions for package pict2e
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
This new release of curve2e uses the floating point arithmetics
made available by package xfp; therefore the definitions of several
commands are much simplified compared to previous versions.
A fallback algorithm has been implemented to load the last previous
update of the package if xfp is not available.
Some commands have been added and a significant error is corrected
(also in the attached previous version) so as to deal correctly with
second degree Bezier splines.
