Name : ghostscript Product : Fedora 19 Version : 9.07 Release : 15.fc19 URL : http://www.ghostscript.com/ Summary : A PostScript interpreter and renderer Description : Ghostscript is a set of software that provides a PostScript interpreter, a set of C procedures (the Ghostscript library, which implements the graphics capabilities in the PostScript language) and an interpreter for Portable Document Format (PDF) files. Ghostscript translates PostScript code into many common, bitmapped formats, like those understood by your printer or screen. Ghostscript is normally used to display PostScript files and to print PostScript files to non-PostScript printers. If you need to display PostScript files or print them to non-PostScript printers, you should install ghostscript. If you install ghostscript, you also need to install the ghostscript-fonts package. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information: This update removes the jpegxr code from the tarball, as well as fixing a character set conversion issue in the pdfwrite driver. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ChangeLog: * Wed Sep 25 2013 Tim Waugh <[email protected]> 9.07-15 - Regenerate tarball (bug #1000387). * Wed Aug 28 2013 Tim Waugh <[email protected]> 9.07-14 - Remove jpegxr to ensure it isn't built (bug #1000387). * Thu Aug 22 2013 Tim Waugh <[email protected]> 9.07-13 - Fixed character set conversion issue in pdfwrite (bug #999927). * Wed Aug 21 2013 Tim Waugh <[email protected]> 9.07-12 - Tweak filter costs for gstoraster (part of bug #998977). * Thu Jul 18 2013 Tim Waugh <[email protected]> 9.07-11 - Remove bundled (and unused) lcms source. - Fixed license tag (AGPLv3+). * Wed Jul 17 2013 Tim Waugh <[email protected]> 9.07-10 - Added in missing part of gs_sprintf backport: add in the header to stdio_.h.
