Summary description: An ArabTeX-like interface for LuaLaTeX
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
This package provides for LuaLaTeX an ArabTeX-like interface to generate
Arabic writing from an ascii transliteration. It is
particularly well-suited for complex documents such as technical documents
or critical editions where a lot of left-to-right commands
intertwine with Arabic writing. arabluatex is able to process any ArabTeX
input notation. Its output can be set in the same modes of
vocalization as ArabTeX, or in different roman transliterations. It
further allows many typographical refinements. It will eventually
interact with some other packages yet to come to produce from .tex source
files, in addition to printed books, TEI xml compliant
critical editions and/or lexicons that can be searched, analyzed and
correlated in various ways.

pdfxup
package.
Version number: 1.30
License type: lppl1.3
Summary description: Create n-up PDF pages with minimal margins
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
pdfxup is a unix/linux shell script that creates a PDF
document where each page is obtained by combining several
pages of a PDF file given as output. The important feature
of pdfxup, compared to similar programs, is that it tries to
compute the (global) bounding box of the input PDF file, in
order to remove the margins and to keep the text only.
Instead of having the font size divided by 2 (for the case
of 2-up output), in some case you may end up with almost
the same font size as in the original document (as is the
case for a default 'article' document produced by LaTeX).
pdfxup uses ghostscript for computing the maximal bounding
box of (some of) the pages of the document, and then uses
pdflatex (with graphicx package) in order to produce the new
document.
