Josef Kleber submitted an update to the

pdfcomment

package.

Version number: 2.4 License type: lppl1.3

Summary description: A user-friendly interface to pdf annotations

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, XeLaTeX and LuaLaTeX

Unfortunately, support of PDF annotations by PDF viewers may vary. The reference viewer for the development of this package is Adobe Reader.

Changes in v2.4:

* compatibility fix for luatex v0.85+

* upgraded obsolete datetime to datetime2

* Bugfix: incorrect positions of PDF text annotations with dvips ----------------------------------------------------------------------

This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/pdfcomment
