New on CTAN: pdftricks2
by CTAN Announcements 17 Nov '12

17 Nov '12

Christian Reibiger submitted the pdftricks package Summary description: A LaTeX package to use PSTricks code with PDF output. License type: gpl Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package provides automatization facilities to use the pstricks package with pdflatex. It is intended to be of easy use and interoperability with latex and pdflatex, namely both show the same result. The pdftricks2 package circumvents the problem that pdflatex can not handle ps-code by writing an extra latex file that contains only the figure. This files are converted to dvi to ps and then to pdf. Finally the resulting pdf-pictures are included in the text as a graphic. This process can be handled automatically by the package but it needs to have the possibility to execute system commands (start pdflatex with option--enable-write18 or -shell-escape). If you do not want to grant this rights you still can use the package but you have to execute a shell script the package writes yourself to produce the pdf-pictures. In this case you have to run pdftex again to include the pictures in your document. The package tries to show the same results when used with latex as for pdflatex. However there are some side effects of using this package as described in the documentation. Although this package is inspired by the pdftricks package, it is coded from scratch. The pdftricks package has some flaws that are circumvented by pdftricks2. For example you have to gather all configurations you need for your pictures in one place. Furthermore it is not possible to share configuration code between your figures and the main text. Also the pdftricks package does not use the provided limits of the figure you produce but rather assumes it fits on a standard page and cuts everything away that does not look like being important. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/graphics/pdftricks2 .

CTAN Update: nicefilelist
by CTAN Announcements 02 Nov '12

02 Nov '12

Uwe Lück submitted an update to the nicefilelist package. Summary description: listfiles alignment with date and version columns License type: lppl Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- In the output from LaTeX's listfiles, `nicefilelist.sty' keeps separate columns for (i) date, (ii) version, and (iii) caption of LaTeX source files according to their Provides... statements. The alignment is not disturbed by long base filenames or short filename extensions such as `.fd'. The specification is Martin Muench's. v0.7 deals with another challenge from the latter: a package option `[wrap]' provides automatic word wrapping within the caption column, so filenames and captions can be quite long without disturbing the alignment. For this purpose, I finally resort to a package not invented here: `hardwrap' by Will Robertson and Kevin Godby. As opposed to the `dateiliste' package, this is in fact about the plain text output in the .log file or, with the `myfilist' package, as a stand-alone plain text file. LICENSE: LPPL 1.3, no responsibility can be accepted when your monitor bursts. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/nicefilelist .

Schlimmchen and S. Fnord. - removed the need to set pdfpagelabels=false when loading hyperref, by putting pagenumbering{arabic} (to define hepage) before loading hyperref, as figured out by J. Wolf. - corrected the line wrapping of cvlistitem of the banking style. - corrected a bug in makecvtitle and makelettertitle of the banking style. - removed an unwanted space in the footer of the casual style. - moved the font style definitions to moderncv.cls for better readability (moderncv.cls is meant to be a sort of header file, implementing only some macros shared by all styles and defining the macros that the style files need to implement). ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/moderncv/ .
