Its features include: + +o TeX \special's that approximate the functionality of the PostScript pdfmarks + used by Adobe Acrobat Distiller. Links, outlines, articles, and named + destinations are supported, for example. +o Support for standard DVI specials such as the HyperTeX specials and the TPIC + specials. +o Support for thumbnails (with help from GhostScript). +o Ability to include PDF, PNG, and JPEG files as embedded images. For PDF + files, only the first page is included. Resources will be embedded from the + original file as necessary. File inclusion does not work for PDF files that + store the page contents in several segments in an array. +o Virtual font support +o Support for both Type1 and PK fonts. +o Support for arbitrary linear graphics transformations. Any material on the + page can be scaled and rotated. +o A color stack accessible via \special's. +o Partial font embedding and stream compression for reduced output file size +o Balanced page and destination trees for improved reader access on very large + document files. + +dvipdfm was developed by Mark A.
