CTAN Update: animate
Date: May 18, 2008 12:07:03 PM CEST
On Fri, 16 May 2008 Alexander Grahn submitted an update to the
animate
package.
The package provides an interface to create portable, JavaScript driven PDF
animations from sets of graphics files or from inline graphics, such as LaTeX
picture environment, PSTricks or pgf/TikZ generated pictures, or just from
typeset text.
Location on CTAN: /macros/latex/contrib/animate
License type: lppl
Announcement text:
This updated version of `animate' uses a different method for animating graphics. The use of PDF Layers (OCGs) was dropped in favour of a Widget based method which produces animations that perform better in newer Acrobat Reader versions. The OCG based method is still available and can be selected by the package or command option `useocg'.
This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/animate . More information is at http://tug.ctan.org/info/?id=animate (if the package is new it may take a day for that information to appear). We are supported by the TeX Users Group http://www.tug.org . Please join a users group; see http://www.tug.org/usergroups.html . _______________________________________________ Thanks for the upload. For the CTAN Team Rainer Schöpf
