cups-filters 1.17.5 released!
Hi,
NOTE: Please wait with uploading to unstable until QPDF 7.0~b1 is
readily available there!
I have released cups-filters 1.17.5 now, with the following changes:
- libcupsfilters: In the PPD generator for driverless printing
renamed the "print-quality" option back to
"cupsPrintQuality" as the support for this option got fixed
in CUPS (CUPS issue #5090).
- braille: Improvements on the braille support for bitmap
images: Moves the graphical dot distance option to the image
conversion group, add an option to avoid image resize, and
make the rotation option easier by proposing to just fit
paper instead of fitting portrait or landscape. Thanks to
Samuel Thibault for this patch.
- braille: Support for embossing vector images as braille.
Thanks to Samuel Thibault for this patch.
- braille: Fix liblouis1.defs installation. Thanks to Samuel
Thibault for this fix.
This release is to revert the renaming of the "print-quality" option in
the auto-generated PPDs for driverless printing back to
"cupsPrintQuality" to be consistent with the PPD generator of CUPS. Also
the support for this option is now fixed in CUPS. In addition, several
issues with Braille embossing, especially for graphics got fixed.
I have already uploaded this to Ubuntu as 1.17.5-0ubuntu1 so that users
can start testing. Please use this Ubuntu package to make your Debian
package.
Thanks in advance.
