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 is distributed with the backref and nameref packages, which make use of the facilities of hyperref.
The package depends on the author’s kvoptions, ltxcmds and refcount packages.
