CTAN update: hyperxmp
by CTAN Announcements 14 Jun '20

14 Jun '20

Scott Pakin submitted an update to the hyperxmp package. Version number: 5.3 2020-06-13 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 5.3 of hyperxmp improves the automatic detection of document metadata. Much of the acmart and scrlttr2 metadata are now autodetected, as are languages specified using the polyglossia package. Thanks to Robin Schwab for testing and suggestions. hyperxmp v5.3 also reduces its dependency on the atenddvi package, as recommended by Nelson Posse Lago. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/hyperxmp More information is at http://www.ctan.org/pkg/hyperxmp CTAN is run entirely by volunteers and supported by TeX user groups Please join a user group or donate to one, see https://ctan.org/lugs ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Thanks for the upload.

Donald P. Story submitted an update to the dPS package. Version number: 2020-06-03 License type: lppl Summary description: Create a matching game with a hidden message Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Das Puzzle Spiel (dps) is a LaTeX package for creating a puzzle, a message actually, and a series of questions and answers. The document consumer matches the questions with the answers. With each match, another letter appears in the puzzle. Upon completion of all questions, the message hidden in the puzzle is revealed. The puzzle is primarily designed for the screen, but you can optionally create the game for paper. DPS was created as a learning tool. What's new (2020-06-03) Several options usebtnappr and uselayers. These are to support the creation of extended questions; the latter uses layers to typeset the questions into the document; the former uses icon appearances to do the same. Also, new is you can optionally create a sideshow. A sideshow is a tiled graphic that is progressively revealed as the player works through the puzzle. There is an additional option of having the tiled graphic appear randomly in the designated area and have a bubble sort rearrange the tiles into their proper order. There are many other changes and bug fixes. The package should work for users of dvips->distiller, pdflatex, lualatex, and xelatex. The usebtnappr option is available to all workflows. The uselayers option requires the dvips->distiller workflow and the aeb_pro package. enjoy dps ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/dps More information is at https://www.ctan.org/pkg/dps ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Thanks for the upload.

Package works for pdflatex, lualatex, xelatex, dvips/distiller or dvips/ps2pdf; some techniques require Acrobat. Pdfmark-type drivers require, depending on the method used, aeb_pro or graphicxsp. PDF Viewers: Adobe Reader DC, PDF-XChange Editor, and, of course Adobe Acrobat. SummatraPDF previews the icon buttons very well. What's New 2020-06-05: The basic functionality of this package is unchanged. In this version, the AP entry is added to the Names dictionary of the PDF catalog. This means that the names of the icons imported in the embedding environment are known to Acrobat/Adobe Reader/PDF-Exchange Editor. It also allows the icons to be manipulated using JavaScript methods, the most significant of which is the Doc.getIcon(<icon-name>) method. Revised examples illustrate Doc.getIcon(). dps ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/icon-appr More information is at https://www.ctan.org/pkg/icon-appr ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Thanks for the upload.

CTAN update: cellprops

Julien Rivaud submitted an update to the cellprops package. Version number: 1.7a 2020-06-07 License type: gpl3+ Summary description: Accept CSS-like selectors in tabular, array, … Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- cellprops is a package to setup tabular and array environments appearance with CSS-like declarations. This release fixes a problem with multicolumns where the background was drawn correctly, but not the borders which wouldn't span multiple columns. It also improves performance of :nth-child() pseudo-class handling, and enforces n>=0 in :nth-child(An+B) constructs, as the CSS specification mandates. This makes it possible to select the five first rows or every other column starting from the fourth. The specificity of selectors is also truer to the CSS specification, even if for different selectors with equal specificity the latest one doesn't always win. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/cellprops More information is at http://www.ctan.org/pkg/cellprops CTAN is run entirely by volunteers and supported by TeX user groups Please join a user group or donate to one, see https://ctan.org/lugs ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Thanks for the upload.

Minor changes to the interface that result in more coherent conventions, and changes to the default behavior to take into account the language and, if applicable, math mode.
