Description: A DVI to PDF translator.
Dvipdfm translates files from Donald Knuth's DVI format (commonly
produced by TeX) to Adobe's Portable Document Format (PDF). Important
features include: \special's that approximate the functionality of the
PostScript pdfmarks used by Adobe's Acrobat Distiller; the ability
to include PDF, JPEG, PNG, MetaPost, and PostScript (with help from
an external program) files as embedded images; support for several
\special standards for improved DVI file portability; support for
thumbnails (with a little help from GhostScript); re-encoding support
for PostScript fonts; virtual font support; support for arbitrary
linear graphics transformations; an internal color stack accessible via
\special's; beginning of page (BOP) and end of page (EOP) \special's
for placing arbitrary PDF stream graphics on every page; partial
font embedding and Flate compression for reduced file size; and a
balanced page tree and dest tree to improve reader speed on very large
documents.
