Subject: ANNOUNCE: Xpdf 3.00 - a PDF viewer for X Glyph & Cog, LLC is pleased to announce a new version of Xpdf, the open source Portable Document Format (PDF) viewer for X. The Xpdf project also includes a PDF text extractor, PDF-to-PostScript converter, and various other utilities. Xpdf runs under the X Window System on Unix, VMS, and OS/2. The non-X components (pdftops, pdftotext, etc.) also run on Win32 systems and should run on pretty much any system with a decent C++ compiler. Major changes: * New PDF rasterizer ("Splash"). * Added support for PDF 1.5. * Replaced pdftopbm with pdftoppm (which can generate PBM, PGM, and PPM files). See the `CHANGES' file for a complete list of changes. Source (C++ and C) is available, and it should be fairly easy to compile for UNIX, VMS, OS/2, and Win32. More information, source code, and precompiled binaries are on the xpdf web page and ftp site: http://www.foolabs.com/xpdf/ ftp://ftp.foolabs.com/pub/xpdf/ For information on commercial licensing and consulting, please see the Glyph & Cog web site: http://www.glyphandcog.com/
