Hi Hans,
looks my knowledge of TeX is holey like a Leerdammer. Can you tell me why you fire a warning for already defined, non-global allocated registers? Some of them make sense here but even a grouped (and local allocated) register gives such a warning.
warning : \count \OLDpdfcompresslevel is already defined (\relax it first)
\def\disablePDFcompression% {\bgroup % \let\OLDpdfcompresslevel\relax \newcount\OLDpdfcompresslevel \OLDpdfcompresslevel\pdfcompresslevel \pdfcompresslevel\zerocount\relax} \def\allowPDFcompression% {\pdfcompresslevel\OLDpdfcompresslevel\egroup}
first of all, there is a command \nopdfcompression so you don't need the hackery
well, the code is messed up this way, because i had also disabled \pdfobjcompresslevel in a prior version. after i found out, that you can't change it at runtime (only once at the very beginning of the document) i removed it. the rest of the macro was unchanged.
then, \newcount is global and the latest releases of context catch redefinitions so:
- either move the \newcount outside the macro - or relax it first (which will spoil a counter then)
ok, will do so. thanks Hans and Wolfgang!
(the whole allocator has been rewritten and is no longer doing it in the traditional tex way, at least not with respect to where things end up; cleaner this way)
Hans
