CTAN update: hyperref 6.78a
Date: July 16, 2008 4:57:52 PM CEST
On Tue, 15 Jul 2008, Heiko Oberdiek submitted an update of the
hyperref
package.
> Excerpt from hyperref's ChangeLog:
>
> 6.78a
> * Removal of option `dvipdf' and driver `hdvipdf.def'.
> * Driver detection is changed: hyperref respects the setting
> of \pdfoutput and does not change it. Also \pdfcompresslevel
> is not changed anymore.
>
> 6.77r
> * New option `pdfa': It tries to make the PDF code, generated
> by hyperref, more compatible to PDF/A, thus that the PDF file
> can be more easily converted by Adobe Acrobat, for example.
> (Many PDF/A related things are not under the control of hyperref.)
>
> 6.77n
> * New option `linktoc' added, see README.
>
> And lots of bug fixes.
> More details, see ChangeLog.
Thanks for the upload.

Hyperref – Extensive support for hypertext in LaTeX
The hyperref package is used to handle cross-referencing commands in LaTeX to produce hypertext links in the document. The package provides backends for the \special set defined for HyperTeX DVI processors; for embedded pdfmark commands for processing by Acrobat Distiller (dvips and Y&Y’s dvipsone); for Y&Y’s dviwindo; for PDF control within pdfTeX and dvipdfm; for TeX4ht; and for VTeX’s pdf and HTML backends.
The package depends on the author’s kvoptions, ltxcmds and refcount packages.
