CTAN Update: pxpic
Date: January 17, 2021 6:28:36 PM CET
Jonathan P. Spratte submitted an update to the
pxpic
package.
Version: 1.2 2021-01-16
License: lppl1.3c
Summary description: Draw pixel pictures
Announcement text:
Version 1.1: This release adds the gap-hack option, which provides a hack fixing the displayed (but non-existent) gaps between pixels in some PDF viewers. It does so by overlapping pixels to the left and top. Version 1.2: This release adds the `color-list` option with which you can use predefined lists of colours for `mode=px`. Also the behaviour of `gap-hack` is slightly changed, now the pixels are also increased in size, so that the only pixels not having the correct size are those at the right and bottom border, regardless of the `gap-hack` value.
The package’s Catalogue entry can be viewed at https://ctan.org/pkg/pxpic The package’s files themselves can be inspected at http://mirror.ctan.org/graphics/pxpic/
Thanks for the upload. For the CTAN Team Petra Rübe-Pugliese

pxpic – Draw pixel pictures
With pxpic you draw pictures pixel by pixel. It was inspired by a lovely post by Paulo Cereda, among other things (most notably a beautiful duck) showcasing the use of characters from the Mario video games by Nintendo in LaTeX.
