Severity: normal
When I was using Debian Woody, I would put
\pdfadjustspacing=2 \pdfprotrudechars=2 in the preambles of
my letters and other documents, and this would make a
positive difference to the spacing when typeset with
pdflatex. After the upgrade to Sarge, the presence or
absence of this setting appears to make no difference
whatsoever to the printed output. Certainly no characters
are protruded (verified by loading the output into The Gimp
and drawing a straight line down the right-hand margin) and
the spacing does not appear to be adjusted, and pdflatex
produces output that is identical to latex (i.e. none of
pdflatex's adjustments have taken effect). I am using the
same documents as I used before, and I have not otherwise
tampered with the tetex distribution.
