Danke, und hier die News in 8.5:
New features since the last stable release:
- Topological grid fitting, an original method developed for Ghostscript by Dr. Igor V. Melichev, improves the rendering of True Type fonts at small resolutions. See the documentation for GridFitTT for information on this feature.
- The PDF writer now implements PDF 1.4 encryption. See the encryption parameter documentation for more information.
- A new rendering method for shadings, developed for Ghostscript by Dr. Igor V. Melichev, improves the quality and performance of rasterization on continuous tone devices. The new method allows hardware or software acceleration with help of customizable routines for filling areas with a linearly varying color. functions.
- Better support for running Ghostscript in "Job Server" mode as a daemon to continually accept and convert a series of independent files.
- Also new is the Rinkj deivce, an experimental new driver for some inkjet printers using ETS screening and color profiles to achieve very high quality output for tuned output. See the Rinkj section for more information.
- We now support PDF 1.5 files, including the new compression and encryption modes.
- We have beta support for JPEG 2000 compressed images, using the JasPer compression library. In this release this support is only enabled as in the default autoconf (POSIX) and MSVC builds.
This release also has major internal improvements toward thread safety, although we have not yet reached this goal. Nevertheless Ghostscript should be more robust when used as a library, and these changes were an important precursor to complete virtualization.
