CTAN Update: uowthesistitlepage
by CTAN Announcements 12 Jan '14

12 Jan '14

Thomas Griffiths submitted an update to the uowthesistitlepage package. Version number: 2.0 License type: lppl Summary description: Typesets the title page of your thesis in accordance with the UOW guidelines. Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Added cosupervisor field. The field works the same as supervisor field, but is off by default. The field can either be below the supervisor field or next to it. When next to it the whole block of supervisors is centred as a single unit. The default position is below the supervisor field, but the adjacent style can be tuned on with the horizontal option in the preamble. Added the horizontal option. This uses a tabular environment to put two centred columns in a centred table to place the new cosupervisor adjacent to the supervisor field. It is off by default but if you want it on just give horizontal as a option to the package in the preamble. Added the report option. Prints a nice little title page for lab reports and the like. Adjusted the declaration and dummy text accordingly. Fixed up the declaration page, reworded it to make it, in my opinion, a bit neater sounding. Also fixed the declaration for fullsubject, report and partialsubject so that it is for the completion of the assessment criteria of class. Moved the vspace{biggap} and vspace*{fill} so that the University and School are at the bottom near the date. Removed some LaTeX crimes: egin...{centering} end{centering} to centering, excess return lines. Italicised the requirements. Removed the bold from all but the title. Changed the wording — The degree is now conferred not awarded. Added new pagesize proportional measurements for the margins so that they scale and the title page now works for small pages (tested to A5, 12 pt). Removed lmodern package requirement. Added `Doctor of Philosophy' as the degree definition if option phd (or PhD) is given to the package. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/uowthesistitlepage/ More information is at http://www.ctan.org/pkg/uowthesistitlepage We are supported by the TeX Users Group http://www.tug.org .

CTAN Update: xint
by CTAN Announcements 10 Jan '14

10 Jan '14

Jean-François Burnol submitted an update to the xint package. Version number: 1.09j License type: lppl Summary description: Expandable operations on long numbers Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 1.09j 2014/01/09 * The core division routines have been re-written for some (limited) efficiency gain, more pronounced for small divisors. As a consequence, the computation with the algorithm given in the user manual of one thousand digits of Pi is three times faster. Some other small improvements elsewhere. * A new macro xintXTrunc is designed to produce thousands or even tens of thousands of digits of the decimal expansion of a fraction. Although completely expandable it has its use limited to inside an |edef|, |write|, |message|, dots. It can thus not be nested as argument to another package macro. * xintexpr.. elax can now be used inside an edef without the xintthe prefix converting the internal format into explicit digit tokens; it will expand completely and inhibit the error message about a missing xintthe. This can significantly speed up the use of xintexpr in a non-expandable contexts, when dealing with numbers having hundreds of digits. Notice that contrarily to umexpr for which he or umber is necessary not only to print but also to trigger the computation, xintthe is only needed for the printing step (previously xintexpr was already fully expandable under omannumeral-`0). * bug-fix: |1.09i| did an unexplainable change to XINT_infloat_zero which broke the floating point routines for vanishing operands :-(( The first two pages of the user manual give a much clearer view of the aims and abilities of the package. The manual has more of these tremendous applications my (singleton) user base enjoy so much! ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/generic/xint/ More information is at http://www.ctan.org/pkg/xint We are supported by the TeX Users Group http://www.tug.org .

Scott Pakin submitted an update to the hyperxmp package. Version number: 2.4 License type: lppl Summary description: Embed XMP metadata within a LaTeX document Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- XMP (eXtensible Metadata Platform) is a mechanism proposed by Adobe for embedding document metadata within the document itself. The metadata are designed to be easy to extract, even by programs that are oblivious to the document's file format. Most of Adobe's applications store XMP metadata when saving files. Now, with the hyperxmp package, it is trivial for LaTeX document authors to store XMP metadata in their documents as well. hyperxmp integrates seamlessly with hyperref and requires virtually no modifications to documents that already exploit hyperref's mechanisms for specifying PDF metadata. The current version of hyperxmp can embed the following metadata as XMP: authors, base URL, contact telephone number/postal address/email address/URL, copyright statement, creation date, document identifier, document instance identifier, file format, keywords, language, LaTeX file name, license URL, metadata writer, PDF version, PDF-generating tool, PDF/A compliance level and version, primary author's position or title, subject/summary, and title. hyperxmp is compatible with pdflatex, latex+dvips+ps2pdf, latex+dvipdfm, xelatex, and lualatex. Version 2.4 of hyperxmp embeds more precise timestamps (when possible), uses proper version 4 UUIDs, provides an xmptilde macro for including tildes in URLs, and includes better support (thanks to Florian Breitwieser) for producing PDF/A-compliant XMP metadata. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/hyperxmp/ More information is at http://www.ctan.org/pkg/hyperxmp We are supported by the TeX Users Group http://www.tug.org .

Donald Arseneau submitted an update to the url package. Version number: 3.4 License type: lppl Summary description: The command url is a form of verbatim command that allows linebreaks at certain characters or combinations of characters, accepts reconfiguration, and can usually be used in the argument to another command. (The urldef command provides robust commands that serve in cases when url doesn't work in an argument.) The command is intended for email addresses, hypertext links, directories/paths, etc., which normally have no spaces, so by default the package ignores spaces in its argument. However, a package option “allows spaces”, which is useful for operating systems where spaces are a common part of file names.

Stéphane Galland submitted an update to the AutoLaTeX package. Version number: 28.0 License type: gpl Summary description: Major feature enhancements and bug fixes.

This feature may be enabled with the '--Wall' command line option. Major bugs are fixed: the string encoding when invoking system commands (exec, system, etc.), the enabling state of the Gedit's components. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/support/autolatex/ More information is at http://www.ctan.org/pkg/autolatex We are supported by the TeX Users Group http://www.tug.org .
