Hi, pdftex-1.20b-beta2 is available at pdftex.sarovar.org/src djgpp binaries are also available at pdftex.sarovar.org/djgpp This version fixes a problem reported by Robert that pdftex crashes when including a pdf file produced by pdftex with auto expansion on. Some patches by Hartmut that I forgot to integrate in the previous version are in now. There is still one "feature" that I decided to let it as is after a few days working on it: when a pdf with expanded fonts is being included, and the same fonts are also expanded in the main document, then those expanded fonts might be embedded twice. To be more precise: if a expanded font comes first from the included (ie the pdf figure appears first in the document), then it will be embedded twice. I didn't like this much and wanted to make pdftex "smarter", however after playing with it I came to the conclusion that it cannot be done without introducing new troubles. Anyway, it doesn't hurt much, IMHO. Thanh
