CTAN Update: latex-graphics
Date: June 15, 2016 8:11:02 PM CEST
The LaTeX Team submitted an update to the
latex-graphics
package.
Version: 2016-06-02
License: lppl1.3
Summary description: The LaTeX standard graphics bundle
Announcement text:
Following the death of Sebastian Rahtz, and the retirement of Robin Fairbairns, the LaTeX3 project have been asked to take over maintenance of the rotating package. This update adds the rotating package to the LaTeX graphics bundle. In addition the pagesize handling is now normalised across drivers. Previously the pdftex and luatex options set the page size (by specifying \(pdf)page(height|width)). Now the dvips option uses a pagesize \special to have a similar effect. The color and graphics packages have new (no)setpagesize options that can enable or disable this behaviour.
The package's Catalogue entry can be viewed at http://www.ctan.org/pkg/latex-graphics The package's files themselves can be inspected at http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/required/graphics/
Thanks for the upload. For the CTAN Team Petra RĂ¼be-Pugliese
