This should be at your local mirror. Jim Hef{}feron Saint Michael's College ........................................................................... The following information was provided by our fellow contributor: Name of contribution: purifyeps Version number: 1.1 Author's name: Scott Pakin Location on CTAN: /support/purifyeps Summary description: Make EPS work with both LaTeX/dvips and pdfLaTeX. License type: lppl Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- While pdfLaTeX has a number of nice features, its primary shortcoming relative to standard LaTeX+dvips is that it is unable to read ordinary Encapsulated PostScript (EPS) files, the most common graphics format in the LaTeX world. purifyeps converts EPS files into a purified form that can be read by *both* LaTeX+dvips and pdfLaTeX. The trick is that the standard LaTeX2e graphics packages can parse MetaPost-produced EPS directly. Hence, purifyeps need only convert an arbitrary EPS file into the same stylized format that MetaPost outputs. Version 1.1 includes two helpful changes. First, in response to a discussion on the tex-live mailing list, the program now issues a more user-friendly error message if pstoedit (a support tool required by purifyeps) is not found on the search path. Second, purifyeps incorporates a patch provided by Markus Kohm to search for pstoedit's mpost.fmp file in a standard set of directories. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is at http://tug.ctan.org/tex-archive/support/purifyeps .

CTAN new package: fileinfo
by CTAN Announcements 29 Nov '10

29 Nov '10

This should be at your local mirror. Thank you again, Jim Hef{}feron Saint Michael's College Basic package information, as sent by the contributor. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Location: /macros/latex/contrib/fileinfo Caption: get file infos without loading; listfiles -- mine only Description: 'readprov.sty' renders GetFileInfo from LaTeX's 'doc.sty' (without the latter being reqired), as well as new robust (expandable) variants of it, usable with files that are not really loaded (they are quit when their file info is found). So, e.g., you can describe packages that are incompatible with each other or with packages that your document uses. You even can report about various class files. Such files also enter listfiles. [related package: zwgetfdate] 'myfilist.sty' uses this so listfiles need not show files that were used, rather just files you want to know about. In a TeX script, you can choose some files and their order. Their names can be output into a plain text file with their dates, version ids, and one-line descriptions, formatted in the way listfiles does it after a LaTeX run. This way you can get an overview of, e.g., some package bundle ...

CTAN tug.ctan.org update: pdftex user manual r655
by CTAN Announcements 25 Nov '10

25 Nov '10

This addition to the pdftex directory structure should be at your local mirror. Jim Hef{}feron Saint Michael's College .................................................................. The following information was provided by our fellow contributor: Name of contribution: pdftex user manual r655 Version number: 655 Author's name: Karl Berry Location on CTAN: /systems/pdftex/manual Summary description: enhanced manual for 1.40.11 License type: fdl Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- A new version of the manual for pdftex 1.40.11 is now available. It includes documentation on some primitives which have been available for some time but never included in the manual, and miscellaneous other fixes. Special thanks to Paul Isambert for drafting most of the new text. To be sure it's clear: pdftex itself is entirely unchanged and no new versions of the program have been released since 1.40.11 (in TeX Live 2010). This update is only about the manual. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is at http://tug.ctan.org/tex-archive/systems/pdftex/manual . Information is at http://tug.ctan.org/pkg/pdftex (it may take a day for the information to appear). We are supported by the TeX Users Group http://www.tug.org .
