CTAN Update: epspdf / epspdf-extra
by CTAN Announcements 06 Mar '09

06 Mar '09

On Fri, 6 Mar 2009 Siep Kroonenberg submitted an update to the epspdf and epspdf-extra packages. Epspdf[tk] is a Ruby script which converts between PostScript, EPS and PDF. It has both a command-line and a GUI interface. Using pdftops (from the xpdf command-line utilities) for round-tripping opens up several new possibilities compared to older similarly-named utilities. epspdf-extra provides multi-platform support for epspdf. Location on CTAN: /support/epspdf and /support/epspdf-extra License type: gpl Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Main changes: - optional support for hires boundingbox - support for MikTeX's builtin Ghostscript - various bugfixes Changes to epspdf-extras: Updated Ruby/Tk subset. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/support/epspdf . More information is at http://tug.ctan.org/info/?id=epspdf (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 .

On Sun, 1 Mar 2009 Zdeněk Wagner submitted an update to the zwpagelayout package. This package was developed as a typographers’ toolbox offering the most important features for everyday work. First it allows setting the paper size as well as the page layout. The next important feature is the ability to print crop marks both with TeX + dvips or (x)dvipdfm(x) and with pdfTeX. Finally it is possible to reflect pages both horizontally and vertically.
