This release brings a more powerful layout algorithm with enhanced vertical positioning capabilities and better handling of sub- and superscripts in mathematical formulae. Encoding tables for all AMS fonts except the cyrillic ones have been added. Other improvements include a completed Blackboard font encoding and adaptions to Unicode 3.2. A few bugs have been fixed as well, most notably false out of memory errors on AIX 4.2 and some other systems.

This release adds several new TeX font encodings and the ISO-8859-15 (Latin9) output encoding, mainly to support the European currency symbol. Other changes include a more user-friendly --output-encoding option and bugfixes.

Output can now be restricted to a range of pages. The positioning of
ligatures and many mathematical symbols has improved. Most of the
missing entries in the font encoding tables were added. Some bugs were
fixed as well, including a build problem on FreeBSD.

The layout algorithm has been improved, a
sequential processing option added, support for
"TeX Typewriter Text" font encoding, and some
bugfixes.

Implemented a new layout algorithm which makes everything except alignment-based layout come out mostly right, as well as some less important changes.
