Message-ID: -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- I've just released a new version of xpdf, my Portable Document Format (PDF) viewer for X. If you've wanted to look at PDF files, but couldn't because Adobe didn't have a viewer for your system, you'll want to check out xpdf. Changes in version 0.6: * Basic support for PDF 1.2 files * Better font support * Print directly from xpdf -- '|lpr' * Fixed links between files * Fixed several bugs in PostScript output * Lots of other little things (see the `CHANGES' file) (I have decryption code, but I'm not releasing it until I figure out how to get around the U.S. export restrictions.) Source (C++ and C) is available, and it should be fairly easy to compile for UNIX or VMS. Binaries are available for: * AIX 4.1 (PowerPC) * SunOS 4.1 (SPARC) * Ultrix 4.4 (MIPS) * OSF/1 3.2 (Alpha) * HP-UX 9.05 (HP-PA) More information, source code, and precompiled binaries are at: http://www.contrib.andrew.cmu.edu/usr/dn0o/xpdf/xpdf.html ftp://ftp.andrew.cmu.edu/pub/xpdf/ Source and Linux binaries are on sunsite.unc.edu, currently in /pub/Linux/Incoming but they will be moved to: ftp://sunsite.unc.edu/pub/Linux/X11/xapps/graphics/viewers/ - - Derek -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: 2.6.3i Charset: noconv iQCVAwUBMolNcIQRll5MupLRAQHcVwP/bqSelrknBq7vqYxDnjYQNXGRnU/Zh5Nr mSguXD8bvBXdL2Tqn1tp7H5uG6hl8462JQyqqqjwFleFE+PbY2/encpPtdhRrPJO CtYza6h8pZZLqH87KF6jDNXlidwyf/QjOcHTDkQ1lyFCt/4ddjvEuBPia5KpEk03 R2yO/fSdeW0= =CvzV -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- This article has been digitally signed by the moderator, using PGP. http://www.iki.fi/liw/lars-public-key.asc has PGP key for validating signature.
