An error in the surface bounding box routines was fixed. Path/surface intersection routines were added. PDF tex engines are now supported for 3D labels and texpath. The new ConTeXT tex engine can be used for both 2D and non-PRC 3D drawings. Projections LeftView, RightView, FrontView, BackView, BottomView, and TopView, along with an addViews function, were implemented. Portability fixes and various updates to support TeXLive builds were made. The dependence on currentprojection in label(Label, path3) was removed. The font command for LaTeX tex engines now requires all four NFSS (encoding, family, series, shape) arguments.
