Hi, I have uploaded a snapshot of pdftex to pdftex.sarovar.org/src djgpp is also available (pdfetex binaries only). This is a bug-fix release that has all pending patches by Hartmut. The png patch by Taco has also been integrated. A quick summary from NEWS (Martin will make them more meaningful when an official version is released): ,-------- | - patch for PNG support by Taco & Hartmut (259) | | - ignore marginal kerns while unhboxing (292) | | - added \leftmarginkern & \rightmarginkern (292) | | - removed \pdfmovechar (294) | | - added \pdftracingfonts (304) | | - make \pdfxform work with box > 255 (310) | | - added \pdfxformname (requested by Pawel) | | - fixed problem with fonts on solaris (315) | `-------- There are still 2 pending problems: 1) the problem with truetype fonts when a unicode is mapped to 2 or more glyphs. I let pdftex fail in such a cas but still don't know what would be the right thing to do. 2) the problem with dangling object: I changed a few things to fix it but pdf inclusion may be broken now; please do some testing if you can. With the test files by Hartmut at sarovar: now there is a dangling object in yy2.pdf, which is expected if the font used in the included pdf is not used in the main document. Getting rid of this doesn't seem easy. Thanh
