Since pdfTeX is being revised constantly, I am devoting this special section of the CMacTeX Web Page just to it. I will make available my most recent ports of pdfTeX and any changes to the library files on this page. In order to use anything from this page, you must install CMacTeX 4.3 first. It contains all of the fonts and macro files you need to run pdfTeX. The general source for documentation and examples for pdfTeX is TUG. You can always find the latest manuals and pdftex.def here. If you plan to use pdftex, you should subscribe to the mailing list pdftex@tug.cs.umb.edu. This is a mojordomo list, so just send a message containing subscribe pdftex to majordomo@tug.cs.umb.edu. pdfTeX 1.11b Pdftex, as included in binaries.sit.bin, is version 1.11b. A collection of sample documents for pdftex are included in samplepdf.sit.   Converting eps to pdf The eps files you used to include in a TeX document when running TeX and dvips can be used with pdfTeX after the eps files have been converted to pdf. The epstopdf program included with pdftex does this conversion for you. It can call either ghostscript or Adobe Distiller to do the conversion after it has created a temporary eps file which is a modified version of the original file. Including graphics The commands for including graphics with pdftex changes with every update. If you are using the plain format with pdfTeX, you would add the line \pdfimage width ... {foo.pdf} with version 0.13d, while with version 0.14a you would add the lines \pdfximage width ... {foo.pdf} \pdfrefximage\pdflastximage to your source file. If your graphic is a png file, change the file name above to foo.png. Check the pdftex manual for a description of the parameters which can appear before the file specification. The inclusion of graphics with the LaTeX2e format is much simpler. Just use the graphicx package with the pdftex option by including the line \usepackage[pdftex]{graphicx} In your document you would have a line similar to \includegraphics[width=...]{foo}% The graphics package will automatically add a .pdf, .jpg, .png, or .tif extension to the file name when searching for the graphic file.
