quoth the daemon, as i got back from a bout of christmas shopping:
Name of contribution: Pinlabel: a TeX labelling package Author's name: Colin Rourke Package version: v1.2 Location on CTAN: macros/latex/contrib/ Summary description: A TeX labelling package License type: lppl
Announcement text given by the package's contributor:
This is version 1.2 of the pinlabel package and replaces the existing version. It is 100% backwardly compatible. The new feature is that it will now read bounding box information from a PDF figure file if you do not supply an eps or ps version. Thus you can draw your figures directly as pdf's and label them, just as you would an eps figure.
thanks for the upload; i've installed the new version, and updated the catalogue repository.
Users may view the package catalogue entry at http://www.tex.ac.uk/tex-archive/help/Catalogue/entries/pinlabel.html or they may browse the package directory at http://www.tex.ac.uk/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/pinlabel/
The catalogue entry will change (somewhat) overnight tonight.
