CTAN Update: pdfcomment
by CTAN Announcements 29 Oct '09

29 Oct '09

On Thu, 29 Oct 2009 Josef Kleber submitted an update to the pdfcomment package. Location on CTAN: /macros/latex/contrib/pdfcomment Summary description: A user-friendly interface to PDF annotations License type: lppl Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For a long time pdflatex has offered the command pdfannot for inserting arbitrary PDF annotations. However, the command is presented in a form where additional knowledge of the definition of the PDF format is indispensable. This package is an answer to the – occasional – questions in newsgroups, about how one could use the comment function of Adobe Reader. At least for the writer of LaTeX code, the package offers a convenient and user-friendly means of using pdfannot to provide comments in PDF files. Since version v1.1, pdfcomment.sty also supports: LaTeX -> dvips -> ps2pdf, LaTeX -> dvipdfmx and XeLaTeX. Unfortunately, support of PDF annotations by PDF viewers is sparse to nonexistent. The reference viewer for the development of this package is Adobe Reader. License: LPPL Changes in v1.5: - new command listofpdfcomments feature request by: Michael Niedermair - revision of documentation ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/pdfcomment . More information is at http://tug.ctan.org/info/?id=pdfcomment (if the package is new it may take a day for that information to appear). We are supported by the TeX Users Group http://www.tug.org .

CTAN Update: dateiliste
by CTAN Announcements 26 Oct '09

26 Oct '09

On Mon, 26 Oct 2009 Paul Ebermann submitted an update to the package dateiliste Location on CTAN: /macros/latex/contrib/dateiliste Summary description: Extensions of the listfiles concept. License type: lppl Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- The package provides a file list (similar to that offered by listfiles ), neatly laid out as a table. The main document can be included in the list, and a command is available for providing RCS-maintained data for printing in the file list. Version 0.4 corrects a bug in the encoding of the german list preamble, which rendered the package unusable in UTF8-encoded main file. Now it should work in any (ASCII-based) encoding. Thanks to Michael Niedermair for the bug report. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/dateiliste .
