- Improvements to overprint and spot color support in documents with transparency, improvements to PDF and PS output, proper handling of PDF-specific text rendering modes and support for reading AES-encrypted PDF documents. - Improved handling of CJK text, especially in vertical writing modes. - Improved memory footprint processing some files at high resolution. - The handling of color spaces has been moved from PostScript code to C. - A number of the included printer drivers and cups wrappers have been updated to support a PDF-based workflow. Also fixed are several long-standing bugs in the pcl drivers with respect to duplex, resolution and paper tray selection.

Update to 8.63. Changes include (quoted from doc/News.htm):

|Approximately 238 bugs have been fixed since version 8.62. Of particular note |are robustness and performance improvements with large files, invalid PDF, and |font handling. | |The major new feature of this release is multithreaded rendering. This can be |requested by passing -dNumRenderingThreads=n on the command line. The input |document is first parsed, and then each page is split into n bands which are |rendered concurrently. This can provide a significant reduction in processing |time on multi-core systems. | |Images are now always interpolated in their source colorspace. This improves |correctness for XPS documents and avoids bypassing the custom color management |callbacks for interpolated images. Interpolation and color management are both |expensive operations, so this affects performance with large images. The effect |can be positive or negative depending on the file and the target resolution. If |performance is a problem, we suggest running with -dNOINTERPOLATION. | |Support for OpenPrinting Vector devices has been upgraded to version 1.0. | |There are two new devices in this release, both experimental. Behdad Esfahbod |has contributed a cairo output device which uses the cairo graphics library to |generate PDF, SVG, EPS, or PNG files, based on the requested filename |extension. The svgwrite device directly outputs Scalable Vector Graphics, the |W3C XML vector graphics format. Both support only vector art at this point; |text and images will not be represented efficiently. | |Incompatible changes | |The maximum number of color components has been reduced to 8 (from 252) as a |performance improvement. Eight is the largest number commonly used and the |largest number for which we support continuous tone images. Users with special |needs can restore the previous behavior by setting the |GS_CLIENT_COLOR_MAX_COMPONENTS preprocessor symbol to the required number of |components at compile time. | |The -Z: debugging option now uses 'realtime' instead of 'usertime' when |reporting timing information on unix-like systems. This has always been the |case on windows-like systems. | |Obsolete makefiles for the DesqView environment have been removed.

Remove SHLIB knob.

FreeBSD. The official GNOME 2.22 release notes can be found at http://library.gnome.org/misc/release-notes/2.22/ . On the FreeBSD front, this release features an updated hal port with support for video4linux devices, DRM (Direct Rendering), and better support of removable media. Work is also underway to tie webkit more closely into GNOME. As part of the GNOME 2.22 upgrade, GStreamer received a rather large upgrade as well. Be sure to consult UPDATING on the proper steps to upgrade all of your GNOME ports. This release would not have been possible without the contributions and testing efforts of the following people: Pawel Worach kan edwin Peter Ulrich Kruppa J. W.
