The LaTeX Team submitted an update to the Oberdiek bundle and hyperref package Version numbers: Oberdiek 2016-05-05 hyperref 6.83n License type: lppl Summary description: A bundle of packages submitted by Heiko Oberdiek Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Update of oberdiek and hyperref bundles on CTAN. The incompatible changes to luatex in recent luatex versions have required updates to most packages that have any driver or engine specific features. In particular this has affected ifpdf and hyperref packages. Heiko Oberdiek has not had time to update packages due to other pressures on his time and so Heiko and the members of the LaTeX3 and TexLive projects have agreed a new support mechanism. The github organisation https://github.com/ho-tex forms a public repository for maintaining the packages. Issues may be reported on the github site, for example: https://github.com/ho-tex/hyperref/issues https://github.com/ho-tex/oberdiek/issues Additional repositories may be added if updates are needed. Issues may also be reported to the ho-tex(a)tug.org mailing list. (Web interface: http://lists.tug.org/ho-tex) The new mechanism allows small updates to packages to be made as needed. Currently concentrating just on luatex compatibility issues. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/oberdiek More information is at http://www.ctan.org/pkg/Oberdiek We are supported by the TeX user groups.

New on CTAN: datepicker-pro
by CTAN Announcements 08 May '16

D. P. Story submitted the datepicker-pro package. Version number: 2016-05-06 License type: lppl1.2 Summary description: Create a popup datepicker using SWF Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- One of the (many) deficiencies of Adobe Acrobat Reader/Adobe Acrobat is that they have never supported a proper date picker. This package now supplies one. The datepicker command creates a readonly text field and a push button to its right. Pressing on the push button brings forth a SWF file displaying a calendar. The user then chooses a date from the calendar, the the date is transferred to the text field. This is a pro application, which, in the jargon of AeB, means that Adobe Distiller is required as the PDF creator. The only drivers supported, as a result, are dvips and dvipsone. As with all such special features, to experience the datepicker, Adobe Reader or Acrobat are needed. Most other PDF readers do not support form field, rich media annotations, and JavaScript. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/datepicker-pro More information is at http://www.ctan.org/pkg/datepicker-pro We are supported by the TeX User Groups.

CTAN update: mathastext
by CTAN Announcements 04 May '16

04 May '16

Jean-François Burnol submitted an update to the mathastext package. Version number: 1.3o 2016-05-03 License type: lppl1.3 Summary description: Use the text font in maths mode Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- mathastext fixes an issue related to a feature of LuaLaTeX and luaotfload that OpenType fonts are declared in one of two modes: node and base, and only the latter is functional in math mode. But by default text fonts are declared in mode node. Thus mathastext now intervenes to make it so that the font it declares in math mode will use mode base. This fixes issues with for example old style figures being used while the text font used lining figures (or vice versa, depending on the font). But see the code comments for more. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/mathastext More information is at http://www.ctan.org/pkg/mathastext We are supported by the TeX user groups.
