Using these options the preamble code of the sub-files can not only be skipped but extracted into an auxiliary file (.sta) which is then loaded by the main document during the next LaTeX run. The body content of the sub-files is skipped during the first run to avoid compile errors. To avoid option clashes of loaded packages all package option can be extracted first and predefined using 'PassOptionsToPackage'. Alternatively the sub-preambles can be simply printed (without special macros added by 'standalone') into a different auxiliary file (.stp) for easy manual copy&paste into the main document. If requested a list of required packages and pgf, tikz and tikz-timing libraries can be printed avoiding duplicates. New macros: onlyifstandalone{<code>} Used to hide code from the sub-preamble code extractor. standaloneignore Can be used to ignore code before the 'documentclass' of sub-files. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://tug.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/standalone .

CTAN Update: dvisvgm
by CTAN Announcements 25 Mar '10

25 Mar '10

On Thu, 25 Mar 2010 Martin Gieseking submitted an update to the dvisvgm package. Summary description: dvisvgm 0.9 has been released License type: gpl Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- dvisvgm is a command-line utility that converts DVI files to SVG. The latest version 0.9 introduces a new command-line option to compute the exact bounding boxes of each glyph instead of relying on the TFM values. This prevents clipped characters at the edges of the SVG graphic. For further information including a list of recent changes and pre-compiled binaries for Windows/MiKTeX see the project page http://dvisvgm.sourceforge.net ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/dviware/dvisvgm .
