This package is new on tug.ctan.org and should work its way through the mirroring system in the next day.

Thanks again, Jim Hefferon Saint Michael's College

Name of contribution: pdfmarginpar Author's name: Christian Feuersänger Location on CTAN: /macros/latex/congtrib/pdfmarginpar Summary description: An improved marginpar command which produces read-only PDF Annotations readable by Acrobat Reader with latex. License type: lppl

Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- pdfmarginpar provides the pdfmarginpar command which is similar in spirit to marginpar. How- ever, it creates pdf-annotations which can be viewed with Adobe Reader instead of normal text margins: small icons indicate the in-text position where the message originates, popups provide detailed messages. The advantage over marginpar is that bugfixes and communication is clearly visible together with its text source and the document as such is not obscured. ----------------------------------------------------------------------
