[Suggestion] Dvipdfm, a DVI to PDF translator
Someone might want to package this. From http://odo.kettering.edu/dvipdfm/:
What is dvipdfm?
Dvipdfm is a DVI to PDF translator. Its features include:
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.
Ability to include PDF files 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.
Support for arbitrary linear graphics transformations. Any material on
the page can be scaled and rotated.
A 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.
Cheers, Dirk

a degree of stability and an ability to scale up that NT cannot match.
