cont-en.xml

Hi, i plan to update cont-en.xml with changes in mkiv (new keys and commands) but i'm unsure if it's good to mix mkii and mkiv. I think it's to make a separate definition file for mkiv which contains the extra keys for the commands (e.g. sectionsegments for \setuphead) and use the current one for mkii only. Wolfgang

Luatex 0.62.0 announcement
by Taco Hoekwater 23 Aug '10

23 Aug '10

Hi, I have just uploaded the archives for a new luatex release, 0.62.0. This is a development release, but it also fixes some nasty bugs in beta 0.61.0, so if you use that right now, upgrading is recommended. News: * LuaTeX now uses libpoppler (0.12.4) instead of xpdf. * All backend functions now report what file they were searching for whenever a file cannot be found. * Input-ed lua files are now mentioned in the fls file if the --recorder switch is specified on the command line. * Paragraph indentation hlist nodes and hlist and vlist nodes generated by alignment rows and cells now have a subtype (3 for indent box, 4 for rows/columns, 5 for cells). * The 'epdf' lib is in active development and still growing. * The 'fontforge' table is finally removed (was deprecated since 0.40). Bugfixes: * A new mplib import fixes two bad bugs in mplib: - string equality test was wrong - type declarations could delete pre-existing variables * PNG images with transparency could create random size differences in the generated PDF. * In some special cases, font expansion could cause wrong spacing in the generated PDF. * \letterspacefont was broken since a very long time. * The node subtype of the \leftskip and \rightskip glues was wrong. * Some memory leaks have been removed. * Various manual fixes. The archives can be downloaded from supelec as usual: http://foundry.supelec.fr/gf/project/luatex/ You could also check out the sources via anonymous svn: svn co http://foundry.supelec.fr/svn/luatex/tags/beta-0.62.0 Bugs and feature requests can be added to the issue tracker at http://tracker.luatex.org Have fun, Taco
