+PNG support includes most of important features of PNG format such as color
+palette, transparency, 16-bit bit-depth color, embedded ICC Profiles,
+calibrated color, and embedded XMP Metadata.
 
+In including PNG images, \dvipdfmx\ first decompresses image data and then
+compresses (if requested) it again.
+For better compression ratio, a preprocessing filter (Predictor filter) might
+be applied before compression.
+\dvipdfmx\ supports the TIFF Predictor 2 and the PNG optimum filter.
+However, there is yet no way to specify which predictor function is to be used
+and currently PNG optimum filter is always employed.
+
+Predictor filter is a preprocessing filter to image data for improving compression.
+Using a predictor filter usually gives better compression
+but in many cases compression speed becomes significantly slower.
+Try \option{-C 0x20} command line option to disable predictor filters and to
+check if slowness is due to filtering.
+
+For the PNG optimum filter, a heuristic approach, ``minimum sum of absolute
+differences'', is employed for finding the most optimal filter to be used.
+See, discussion in the PNG Specification ''Filter selection'':\medskip
+
+\url{http://www.w3.org/TR/2003/REC-PNG-20031110/\#12Filter-selection}
+\medskip
+
+As built-in support for the sRGB color space is absent in PDF,
+the sRGB color can only be represented precisely by means of the sRGB ICC Profile.
+However, for sRGB color PNG images, \dvipdfmx\ uses an approximate calibrated
+RGB color space instead.
+For approximating the sRGB color, the gamma and CIE \lnum{1931} chromaticity values
+mentioned in the PNG Specification is used.
+See, the following page for more information:\medskip
+
+\url{http://www.w3.org/TR/2003/REC-PNG-20031110/\#11sRGB}
+\medskip
+
+\dvipdfmx\ also supports calibrated color with the \code{gAMA} and the \code{cHRM} chunk.
+These chunks carry information on more accurate color representation. 
+Some software programs, however, write only \code{cHRM} but do not record the gamma value
+although the PNG specification recommends to do so. Gamma value 2.2 is assumed if only
+\code{cHRM} is present but \code{gAMA} is not.

+that is, image data is not decompressed before inclusion. So, although these
+formats are basically lossy, there should be no quality loss when including
+images.
+
 JPEG is relatively well supported. \dvipdfmx\ supports embedded ICC Profiles
-and CMYK color. Embedded XMP metadata is also supported.
-\dvipdfmx\ uses JFIF or Exif data to determin image's physical size.
+and CMYK color. Embedded XMP metadata is also preserved in the output PDF.
+JFIF or Exif data might be used to determin image's physical size.
 
-\subsection{PDF and ``MPS''}
+As the PDF specification does not require information irrelevant to
+displaying images to be embedded, \dvipdfmx\ does not embedd whole data.
+Especially, not all application specific data is retained. Application 
+specific data such as JFIF, Exif, and \code{APP14} Adobe marker are
+preserved.
+Please note that XMP and Exif data which may contain location information
+where the photo was taken is always preserved in the output PDF file.
 
+\lnum{JPEG2000} is also supported. It is restricted to JP2 and JPX baseline
+subset as required by the PDF specification. It is not well supported and still in
+an experimental stage. J2C format and transparency are not supported.
+
+\subsubsection{PDF Support}
+
 PDF inclusion is supported as in \dvipdfm, with various important enhancement
-over \dvipdfm\ for robust inclusion. \dvipdfmx\ can handle cross-reference
+over \dvipdfm\ for more robust inclusion. \dvipdfmx\ can handle cross-reference
 streams and object streams introduced in \lnum{PDF-1.5}.
 \dvipdfmx\ also supports inclusion of PDF pages other than the first page.
 However, tagged PDF may cause problems and annotations are not kept.
 
-For \MP\ generated EPS files, multi-byte encoding support is added.
-\dvipdfmx\ also supports ``\MP\ mode'': When \dvipdfmx\ is invoked with
-\option{-M} option, it enters in \MP\ mode and processes a \MP\
-generated EPS file as input.%
-\footnote{\code{prologue} must be set to \code{2}.}
+As there are no clear way to determin the natural extent of the graphics content
+to be clipped, \dvipdfmx\ preferably try to find the \emph{crop box} to decide
+image size. If there are no crop box \emph{explicitly} specified,%
+\footnote{There are some accusations by Japanese \TeX\ users as
+''violating the PDF spec.'' regarding this point. However, what we are
+talking about it how to guess the \emph{natural} or \emph{intended} size of
+images but not the default value of the PDF crop box itself.} then it
+tries to refer other boundary boxes such as the \emph{art box}. If there are no
+possible boundaries of the graphics content explicitly specified, the \emph{media box},
+which is the boundaries of the physical medium on which the page is to be printed,
+is used as the last resort.
 
-\subsection{Additional Supported Formats}
+The \code{pdf:image} special supports additional keys, ``\code{page}'' and
+``\code{pagebox}''. The \code{page} key takes an integer value representing
+the page number of PDF page to be included, and the \code{pagebox} takes one
+of the keywords \code{mediabox}, \code{cropbox}, \code{artbox}, \code{bleedbox},
+or \code{trimbox} for selecting page's boundary box to be used. For example,
+\begin{lstlisting}
+\special{pdf:image pagebox artbox page 3 (foo.pdf)}
+\end{lstlisting}
+includes 3rd page of `foo.pdf' with the boundary box set to art box.
 
-BMP is supported but limited to uncompressed or RLE-compressed raster
-images. Extensions are not (won't be) supported.
+\subsubsection{Other Image Formats}
 
-\lnum{JPEG2000} is also supported. It is restricted to JP2 and JPX baseline
-subset as required by PDF spec. It is not well supported and still in
-an experimental stage. J2C format and transparency are not supported.
+For \MP\ generated Encapsulated PostScript (EPS) files, multi-byte encoding
+support is added.
+\dvipdfmx\ also supports ``\MP\ mode''. When \dvipdfmx\ is invoked with
+\option{-M} option, it enters in \MP\ mode and processes a \MP\
+generated EPS file as an input.%
+\footnote{\code{prologue} should be set to \code{2}.}
 
+BMP support is also added. It is limited to uncompressed or RLE-compressed
+raster images. Extensions are not (won't be) supported.
 
+For image formats not natively supported, the \code{-D} option can be
+used to convert images to PDF format before inclusion, as in \dvipdfm.
+In \dvipdfmx, the letter \code{v} in the \code{-D} option argument is expanded
+to the output PDF version.
+
 \subsection{Image Cache}
 
-Chaching of images generated via filtering command specified with \option{-D}
+Caching of images generated via filtering command specified with \option{-D}

+\section{Graphics Drawing}
 
-\section{DVI Specials}\label{SEC:specials}
+\dvipdfmx\ does not offer a high level interface to draw graphics objects.
+A possible way to draw grahpics is to write raw PDF graphics drawing codes and
+then to insert them into the output via \code{special} commands.
 
-\dvipdfmx\ is mostly compatible to \dvipdfm.
-Several DVI \code{special} commnads are added for more flexible PDF generation:
-Creation of arbitrary stream object, controlling \dvipdfmx\ behavior, and some
-specials which might be useful for graphics drawing packages.
+To show an example, the following code:
+\begin{lstlisting}
+\special{pdf:content
+  1 0 0 1 0 0 cm
+  0 100 m
+  80 100 120 80 120 0 c
+  S
+}
+\end{lstlisting}
+draws a Bézier curve,
+\begin{center}
+\specialbox{120bp}{100bp}{pdf:content 1 0 0 1 0 0 cm 0 100 m 80 100 120 80 120 0 c S}
+\end{center}
+The \code{pdf:content} special is used here which is useful for inserting an
+isolated graphics object.
 
+The above example illustrates a typical example of PDF graphics drawing.
+It consists of three parts; setting graphics state, constructing a path, and painting
+a path. A Graphic object are specified as a sequence of operators and thier operands
+using \emph{postfix notation}. \keyword{Graphics state operators} comes first,
+\code{cm} in this example sets the current transformation matrix (CTM). Then,
+\keyword{path construction} operators follow; move to position $(0, 100)$,
+append a Bézier curve from current point to $(120, 0)$ with control points
+$(80, 100)$ and $(120, 80)$. Finally, a \keyword{path painting} operator
+comes to draw the constructed path.
+In this example the stroking operator \code{S}
+is used.
 
-\subsection{Additions to \dvipdfm's \code{pdf:} Special}
+\subsection{The \code{pdf:content} Special}
 
-The \code{pdf:fstream} special is added, which enables creation of PDF stream
-object from an existing file.
+The \code{pdf:content} special can be used for drawing an \emph{isolated}
+graphics object. It sets the origin of graphics drawing operators supplied to
+this command to the position where it is inserted.
+The whole content is enclosed by a pair of graphics state save-restore
+operators. So for example, a color change made within a \code{pdf:content}
+command takes an effect only within the content of this special.
+
+\subsection{Guide to PDF Graphics Operators}
+
+PDF employs essentially the same imaging model as PostScript.
+So, it is easy to learn about PDF graphics drawing for people who are
+well accustomed to PostScript. This section is intended to be a short guide
+for PDF graphics operators.
+
+\subsubsection{Graphics State Operators}
+
+The \code{cm} operator modifies CTM by concatinating the specified matrix.
+Operands given to this operators are six numbers each representing
+transformation matrix elements:
+translation represented as $[1, 0, 0, 1, t_x, t_y]$,
+scaling $[s_x, 0, 0, s_y, 0, 0]$,
+rotation $[\cos\theta, \sin\theta, -\sin\theta, \cos\theta, 0, 0]$.
+
+To uniformly scale the object, just use
 \begin{lstlisting}
+2.0 0 0 2.0 0 0 cm
+\end{lstlisting}
+
+The \code{w} operator sets the line width, e.g., `\code{2 w}' sets the line
+width to 2. Here is an example of drawing a rotated rectangle:
+\begin{lstlisting}
+0.866 0.5 -0.5 0.866 30 2 cm 5 w 0 0 100 50 re S
+\end{lstlisting}
+\begin{center}
+\specialbox{120bp}{96bp}{pdf:content 0.866 0.5 -0.5 0.866 30 2 cm 5 w 0 0 100 50 re S}%
+\end{center}
+
+Transformations can be sequentially applied; for the above example,
+\begin{lstlisting}
+1 0 0 1 30 2 cm 0.866 0.5 -0.5 0.866 0 0 cm
+5 w 0 0 100 50 re S
+\end{lstlisting}
+gives the same result.
+
+To specify colors, use \code{RG}, \code{rg}, \code{K}, and \code{k} operators,
+for RGB or CMYK color for stroking (upper-case) and nonstroking (lower-case).
+\begin{lstlisting}
+0.866 0.5 -0.5 0.866 30 2 cm 5 w
+1 0.4 0 0 K 1 0 0 0 k
+0 0 100 50 re B
+\end{lstlisting}
+where the \code{B} operator fill and then stroke the path.
+\begin{center}
+\specialbox{120bp}{96bp}{pdf:content 0.866 0.5 -0.5 0.866 30 2 cm 5 w
+1 0.4 0 0 K 1 0 0 0 k 0 0 100 50 re B}
+\end{center}
+
+A dash pattern can be specified with the \code{d} operator.
+Operands for this operator are the \keyword{dash array} and
+the \keyword{dash phase}.
+For example, to specify a dash pattern with 6-on 4-off starting with phase 0:
+\begin{lstlisting}
+[6 4] 0 d 2 w 0 0 m 320 0 l S
+\end{lstlisting}
+draws the following dashed line:
+\begin{center}
+\specialbox{320bp}{30bp}{pdf:content
+1 0 0 1 0 20 cm [6 4] 0 d 2 w 0 0 m 320 0 l S}
+\end{center}
+
+Other important operators are \code{q} and \code{Q}, which saves and restores
+the graphics state.
+\begin{lstlisting}
+1 0 0 1 30 2 cm
+q
+0.866 0.5 -0.5 0.866 0 0 cm
+[6 4] 0 d 2 w 0 0 100 50 re S
+Q
+-30 0 m 90 0 l S
+0 -2 m 0 96 l S
+\end{lstlisting}
+In the above example, \code{d}, \code{w}, and rotation only take effect within
+the \code{q}-\code{Q} block. The portion drawing two straight lines is unaffected
+by these graphics state change.
+\begin{center}
+\specialbox{120bp}{96bp}{pdf:content
+1 0 0 1 30 2 cm
+q
+0.866 0.5 -0.5 0.866 0 0 cm
+[6 4] 0 d 2 w 0 0 100 50 re S
+Q
+-30 0 m 90 0 l S
+0 -2 m 0 96 l S

+\end{table}
+
+\subsubsection{Path Construction Operators}
+
+A path construction normally starts with a \code{m} operator which moves the
+current point to the specified position and then sequences of other path
+construction operators follow. The path currently under construction is
+called the \keyword{current path}. A sequence of path construction operators
+appends segments of path to the current path and then move the
+\keyword{current point} to the end point of appended path.
+A typical sequence of path construction looks like,
+\begin{lstlisting}
+100 50 m
+100 78 78 100 50 100 c
+22 100 0 78 0 50 c
+0 22 22 0 50 0 c
+78 0 100 22 100 50 c
+S
+\end{lstlisting}
+\begin{center}
+\specialbox{120bp}{80bp}{pdf:content
+100 50 m
+100 78 78 100 50 100 c
+22 100 0 78 0 50 c
+0 22 22 0 50 0 c
+78 0 100 22 100 50 c
+S}
+\end{center}
+This example is an approximated circle drawn by four Bézier curves.
+
+Table~\ref{TAB:operators} shows a list of path construction operators.
+Those who are accustomed to the PostScript language should note that in PDF
+the current path is not a part of the graphics state,
+and hece is \emph{not} saved and restored along with the other graphics state
+parameters.
+
+\begin{table}
+    \centering
+    \begin{tabular}{llp{6.9cm}}\hline
+      Operands & Operator & Description \\ \hline\hline
+      $x$ $y$ & \code{m} & Begin a new path by moving the current point specified by given operands.\\
+      $x$ $y$ & \code{l} & Append a line segment from the current point to the point specified.\\
+      $x_1$ $y_1$ $x_2$ $y_2$ $x_3$ $y_3$ & \code{c} & Append a Bézier curve to the current path.
+        Two Control points and the end point given as operands.\\
+      $x_2$ $y_2$ $x_3$ $y_3$ & \code{v} & Append a Bézier curve to the current path. Using the current
+        point and first two operand as the Bézier control points.\\
+      $x_1$ $y_1$ $x_3$ $y_3$ & \code{y} & Append a Bézier curve to the current path. The second
+      control point coincides with the end point.\\
+      --- & \code{h} & Close the current path by appending a straight line segment from the current point
+        to the starting point of the path.\\
+      $x$ $y$ \textit{width} \textit{height} & \code{re} & Append a rectangle. First two operands for the
+        position of lower-left corner, third and forth operand representing width and
+      height.\\
+      \hline
+    \end{tabular}
+    \caption{List of path construction operators. All operators move the current point to the end
+      point of appended path.}\label{TAB:operators}
+\end{table}
+
+\subsubsection{Path Painting Operators}
+
+There are basically four kind of path painting operators: \code{S}, \code{f},
+\code{B}, and \code{n}. The first three for ``stroke'', ``fill'', and
+``fill then stroke'' operators respectively, and the last one \code{n}
+paints nothing but end the path object. For filling operators, there are
+two kind of operators depending on how ``insideness'' of points are determined:
+the \keyword{non-zero winding number rule} and the \keyword{even-odd rule}.
+The even-odd rule operators are \code{f*} and \code{B*}.
+
+The following example illustrates the difference:
+\begin{lstlisting}
+0 0 100 100 re 20 20 60 60 re f
+1 0 0 1 120 0 cm
+0 0 100 100 re 20 20 60 60 re f*
+\end{lstlisting}
+\begin{center}
+\specialbox{220bp}{100bp}{pdf:content
+0 0 100 100 re 20 20 60 60 re f
+1 0 0 1 120 0 cm
+0 0 100 100 re 20 20 60 60 re f*}
+\end{center}
+The ``interior'' of the ``inner'' square has a non-zero even winding number.
+(In this example, counter-clockwise direction is assumed for both of
+two \code{re} operators.)

+\subsubsection{PDF Document Creation}
+
+\newfeature{Addition in \TeX\ Live 2019}
+
+As a convenience, the \code{pageresources} special is added, which puts given page
+resources into subsequent page's \keyword{Resource Dictionary}. For example,
+\begin{lstlisting}
+\special{pdf:pageresources <<
+  /ExtGState << /MyGS01 << /ca 0.5 /CA 0.5 >> >>
+>>}
+\end{lstlisting}
+puts an ExtGState resource named \code{MyGS01} into the current page's and all
+subsequent pages' resource dictionary.
+
 Other notable extensions are \code{code}, \code{bcontent}, and
 \code{econtent}. The \code{code} special can be used to insert raw PDF graphics
-instructions into output page content stream. It is different from \dvipdfm's
+instructions into the output. It is different from \dvipdfm's
 \code{content} special in that it does not enclose contents with a \code{q}
 and \code{Q} (save-restore of graphics state) pair.
 A typical usage of this special is:
 \begin{lstlisting}
 \special{pdf:code q 1 Tr}
-text goes here...
+...some text goes here...
 \special{pdf:code Q}
 \end{lstlisting}

-\subsection{Dvipdfmx Extensions}
+\subsection{ToUnicode Special}
 
-A new special \code{dvipdfmx:config} was introduced in \TeX Live 2016 which
-makes it possible to invoke a command line option. Most single letter command
-line options except \option{D} are supported. For examples,
+PDF allows users to attach various additional information such as document information,
+annotation, and navigation information (like bookmarks) to their document.
+All human-readable text, \keyword{text string}, contained in such information must
+be encoded either in \keyword{PDFDocEncoding} or UTF-16BE with Unicode byte order
+marker. However, as many users can't prepare their document with text strings
+properly encoded, there is a special kind of special command, \code{pdf:tounicode},
+which can be used to convert text strings into the appropriate Unicode form.
+Note that this feature is provided just as a remedy for users incapable of encoding
+text strings properly.
+
+For example,
 \begin{lstlisting}
-dvipdfmx:config C 0x10
+\special{pdf:tounicode 90ms-RKSJ-UCS2}
 \end{lstlisting}
-sets the \dvipdfmx's compatibility flag.
+declares that \emph{some} of text strings should be re-encoded according to specified
+conversion CMap \code{90ms-RKSJ-UCS2}.
 
-\subsection{DVI Special Examples}
+Conversion is done only for arguments to several PDF special commands such as
+\code{docinfo}, \code{ann}, and \code{out} but not for that of general object creation
+specials. Note that not all PDF string objects are subject to this conversion.
+By default, only dictionary entries listed below are converted.
+\begin{lstlisting}
+Title Author Subject Keywords Creator Producer Contents Subj
+TU T TM 
+\end{lstlisting}
 
-The following code reads \TeX\ source file and creates a stream object named
-as \code{@SourceFile}, then creates a file attachment annotation.
+\newfeature{Addition in \TeX\ Live 2019}
+
+The list of dictionary entries subect to conversion can be extended by supplying
+additional dictionary keys as an array object:
+\begin{lstlisting}
+  \special{pdf:tounicode 90ms-RKSJ-UCS2 [/RC /DS]}
+\end{lstlisting} 
+
+If the name of conversion CMap contains one of the keywords RKSJ, \lnum{B5}, GBK, and KSC,
+PDF string objects are treated specially when they are parsed. A two byte sequence
+starting with the first byte's hight bit set is treated ''as is'' so that
+the \code{0x5c} byte appears in the second byte is not treated as an escape sequence.
+This behavior is not complaiant to the PDF specification.
+
+\subsection{PDF Special Examples}
+
+This section shows several examples of special command usage.
+It is intended to be a hint for advanced users, so uninterested users can safely skip
+this section. In many cases, using \dvipdfmx\ PDF specials requires knowledge on PDF.
+Please refer to Adobe's ''PDF Reference''\cite{ADOBE}.
+
+\subsubsection{Annotations}
+
+In this section, some useful special commands for creating \keyword{annotations}
+are explained. Note that viewer support is required for annotations to be
+displayed correctly.
+
+First start with a very simple \keyword{Text Annotation} for attaching a comment.
+This feature is supported by many PDF viewer applications.

+     /Subj     (An Example of Text Annotations)
+     /Contents (A Quick Brown Fox Jumped Over The Lazy Dog.)
+  >>
+}
+\end{lstlisting}
+\code{pdf:ann} special is used to create an annotation. A small icon shall
+be shown on the side margin. Here, dictionary entry \code{T} is for the tilte,
+\code{Subj} for the subject of this annotation, and \code{Contents} for
+the text string to be shown in the body of this annotation.
+
+Likewise, \keyword{Rubber Stamp Annotation}, which places a rubber stamp
+like figure,
+\begin{center}
+\specialbox{150bp}{50bp}{pdf:ann width 150bp height 50bp
+  <<
+     /Type     /Annot

+
+\begin{lstlisting}
+\special{pdf:ann width 150bp height 50bp
+  <<
+     /Type     /Annot
+     /Subtype  /Stamp
+     /Name     /Approved
+  >>
+}
+\end{lstlisting}
+Other keywords such as \code{Expired}, \code{Final}, \code{Draft}, and so on,
+can be used in place of \code{Approved}.
+
+One can create stamps of thier own style. For this purpose, other specials
+\code{pdf:bxobj} and \code{pdf:exobj} can be used for designing stamps.
+Those specials ``capture'' all typset material enclosed by them into a PDF
+\keyword{Form XObject}, which is a reusable graphics object like included images.
+
+For a simple example,
+\begin{lstlisting}
+\special{pdf:bxobj @MyStamp
+             width 280pt height 0pt depth 40pt}
+\addfontfeature{Scale=4,Color=FF9933}My Own Stamp
+\special{pdf:exobj}
+\end{lstlisting}
+It captures typeset material ``My Own Stamp'' (this example uses \code{fontspec}
+package's command for changing font size and text color) into the object labeled as
+\code{MyStamp} for later reuse.
+Then, \code{AP} (\keyword{appearance dicrionary}) entry for controling the appearance
+of annotations is used as,
+\begin{lstlisting}
+\special{pdf:ann width 280pt height 40pt
+  <<
+    /Type    /Annot
+    /Subtype /Stamp
+    /AP      << /N @MyStamp >>
+  >>
+}
+\end{lstlisting}
+The image captured into the object \code{MyStamp} is used as ``Normal''
+(\code{AP} dictionary entry \code{N}) appearance.
+(\code{R} for ``Rollover'' and \code{D} for ``Down'' can be used.)
+
+\parbox[t][0pt][c]{280pt}{%
+\special{pdf:bxobj @MyStamp width 280pt height 0pt depth 40pt}%
+\addfontfeature{Scale=4,Color=FF9933}My Own Stamp%
+\special{pdf:exobj}%
+}%
+
+The result is:
+\begin{center}
+\specialbox{280bp}{40bp}{pdf:ann width 280pt height 40pt
+  <<
+    /Type    /Annot
+    /Subtype /Stamp
+    /AP      << /N @MyStamp >>
+  >>
+}
+\end{center}
+
+With the following code, \dvipdfmx\ reads the source file and creates a stream
+object named \code{SourceFile}, and then creates file attachment annotation.

-An Example of separation color space:
+A push-pin image must be shown on the margin if viewer supports this kind of
+annotation.
+PDF viewer applications are required to provide predefined icon appearances
+at least for the following standard icons: \code{Graph}, \code{PushPin},
+\code{PaperClip}, and \code{Tag}.
+
+\subsubsection{Special Color Space}
+
+This section shows various examples of using \keyword{Special color spaces}.
+Examples in this section have a common structure. They consist of essentially
+three parts. The first part is for definining color space itself.
+PDF object creation commands like \code{pdf:obj} and \code{pdf:stream} are used
+for this purpose. Next is for registering color space resources in the page's
+\keyword{Resource Dicrionary}. It can be done via \code{pdf:put} command as,
+\begin{lstlisting}
+\special{pdf:put @resource <<
+  /Category << ...key-value pairs... >>
+>>}
+\end{lstlisting}
+where \code{@resource} is a special keyword representing current page's
+Resource Dictionary and \code{Category} (to be replaced by actual category
+name) is a category name such as \code{ColorSpace}.
+Finally, graphics objects are placed, with or with a combination of
+text and, PDF drawing operators inserted by the \code{pdf:code} or the
+\code{pdf:contents} special.
+
+%%EXAMPLE: Separation Color Space
+The first example is the \keyword{Separation} color space:

-Transparency example:

+\code{TintTransform}'s defined here are functions for transforming
+\keyword{tint} values into approximate colors in the
+\keyword{alternate color space}
+(\code{DeviceCMYK} in this example). PostScript calculator functions are used
+for converting a single component value representing ``Orange'' or ``Green''
+into four component CMYK values to approximate those colors. The ``Orange''
+color $v$ is approximated as $(0, 0.62v, v, 0)$ in CMYK color space for
+alternate display here.
+
+The \code{cs} operator for selecting color space and the \code{scn} operator
+for color values are used in the \code{pdf:code} special.
+Be sure that the \code{pdf:put} command, which puts color space resources
+into the current page's Resource Dictionary, goes into the same page as
+subsequent drawing commands.
+
+\dvipdfmx\ currently does not have an easy interface for using various color
+space families such as CIE-Based color spaces (e.g., calibrated colors and

-extensions in \dvipdfmx. In addition to 8-bit \code{enc} files and
-keyword \code{builtin} and \code{none}, \dvipdfmx\ accepts CMap name and
-the keyword \code{unicode} in the encoding field.
+\newfeature{Addition in \TeX\ Live 2016}
 
-This section is completely irrevant to \XeTeX\ users.
+\noindent{}A new special \code{dvipdfmx:config} was introduced in
+\TeX Live 2016 which makes it possible to invoke a command line option.
+Several single letter command line options except \option{D} are supported.
+For example,

+\section{PS Specials}
+
+PS (PostScript) specials can be used to insert a raw PostScript code for drawing
+graphics objects and transforming subsequent text and graphics.
+Please note that support for PostScript operators in \dvipdfmx\ is very
+limited. It is just enough for interpreting PostScript figures output by \MP.
+Only a basic set of operators for arithmetic and math, stack operation and manupilation,
+graphics state, path construction and painting, glyph and font, are supported.
+See, Table~\ref{TABLE:PS} for the list of
+recognized PostScript operators.

+\chapter{Fonts and Encodings}
+
+\section{Fonts and Encodings Support}
+
+In \dvipdfmx, all font formats supported by \dvipdfm\ are also supported with
+many improvements: The CFF conversion for PostScript Type1 fonts\footnote{PostScript
+Type1 font support is restricted to the binary format as in \dvipdfm.} is
+implemented which greatly reduces the output file size. Embedded TrueType fonts are
+now subsetted. The OpenType font format is also supported.\footnote{Its
+implementation is based on the OpenType specification version 1.4.
+Newly added features such as color fonts and variable fonts are not supported yet.}
+
+There are various enhancements made for supporting Unicode and legacy multi-byte
+character encodings for East Asian languages.
+
+
+\section{Font Mappings}
+
+The Syntax of font-mapping (fontmap) files is basically the same as in \dvipdfm.
+There are few extensions available in \dvipdfmx. In addition to the 8-bit \code{enc}
+file and keywords \code{builtin} and \code{none}, \dvipdfmx\ accepts a PostScript CMap
+Resource name and the keyword \code{unicode} in the encoding field.
+
+When the keyword \code{unicode} is specified in the encoding field of fontmap
+files, it is assumed that Unicode values are used in the input DVI file.
+
+\begin{lstlisting}
+  urml    unicode  SourceHanSerifJP-Light.otf
+\end{lstlisting}
+
+Although the DVI format allows 3-byte and 4-byte character codes to be used,
+\dvipdfmx\ only supports up to 2-byte range since there is no TFM format supporting
+3-byte or 4-byte codes.
+
+For PostScript Type1 fonts which do not support Unicode natively, an auxilially file,
+the Adobe Glyph List, is required to make it possible to use fonts with Unicode access.
+
+As a general framework for supporting legacy multi-byte encodings, \dvipdfmx\ employs
+PostScript CMap Resources for handling input strings encoded in various
+character encodings. A CMap name can be specified in the encoding field just like
+the encoding name for 8-bit encodings. For example, to specify the CMap ``UniJIS-UCS2-H'',
+
+\begin{lstlisting}
+  urml    UniJIS-UCS2-H  HiraMinPro-W3.otf
+\end{lstlisting}
+
+For information on the Adobe Glyph List and PostScript CMap Resources, see,
+the section \ref{SEC:auxfiles}, ``Auxilially Files.''

-\section{Encryption Support}\label{SEC:encryption}
-
-\dvipdfmx\ offers basic PDF password security support including
-256-bits AES encryption. Only ``Standard'' security handler is supported and
-public-key security handlers are currently not supported.
-Encryption is enabled by \option{-S} command line option.
-
-When encrypting the document, up to two passwords can be specified:
-an owner password and a user password. If a user attempts to open an encrypted
-document that has a user password, PDF applications prompt for a password.
-Correctly supplying either password enables the user to open the document to
-display or to access to the contents.
-Depending on which password (user or owner) was supplied, additional operations
-allowed for an opened document is determined; full access for users who opened
-the document with the correct owner password or additional operations
-controlled by permission flags supplied by the owner of the document for users
-who opened the document with the correct user password.
-
-Access permision flags can be specified via the \option{-P} option. Each bits
-of the (unsigned) integer number given to this option represents user access
-permissions;
-e.g., bit position 3 for allowing ``print'', 4 for ``modify the contents'',
-5 for ``copy or extract text'', and so on.

 \section{Other Improvements}
 
 This section briefly describes other improvements made for \dvipdfmx.
+There is an extension to glyph name handling in the \code{enc} file for
+seamless support of both PostScript Type1 and TrueType fonts.
+PostScript Type1 font support is enhanced although this format might be
+considered obsolete.
 
 \subsection{Extended Glyph Name Syntax}

-\section{Incompatible Changes}\label{SEC:compatibility}
+\subsection{CFF Conversion}
 
-There are various minor incompatible changes to \dvipdfm.
+\dvipdfmx\ supports on-the-fly PostScript Type1 to CFF (Type1C) conversion
+which greatly reduces size of the resulting PDF file when using Type1 fonts.
+Conversion is essentially `lossless' and there should not be any quality loss.
+However, due to differences in the ability of rasterizers, there might be
+noticeable differences on rendering result.
 
-The \option{-C} command line option  may be used for compatibility to
-\dvipdfm\ or older versions of \dvipdfmx. The \option{-C} option takes flags
-meaning
-\begin{itemize}
-    \item bit position 2: Use semi-transparent filling for tpic shading
-    command, instead of opaque gray color. (requires PDF 1.4)
-    \item bit position 3: Treat all CID-keyed font as fixed-pitch font. This is
-    only for compatibility.
-    \item bit position 4: Do not replace duplicate fontmap entries.
-    \dvipdfm\ behavior.
-    \item bit position 5: Do not optimize PDF destinations. Use this if you
-    want to refer from other files to destinations in the current file.
-    \item bit position 6: Do not use predictor filter for Flate compression.
-    \item bit position 7: Do not use object stream.
-\end{itemize}
+When an older Type1 font is used, \dvipdfmx\ may give the following warning
+message:
+\begin{lstlisting}
+Obsolete four arguments of "endchar" will be used for Type1
+"seac" operator.
+\end{lstlisting}
+It happens when there is an accented character made as a composite glyph using
+the ``seac'' operator.
+This warning is issued as conversion can't be done without relying on the
+\emph{deprecated} usage of the \code{endchar} operator. However, as mentioned in
+``Appendix C Compatibility and Deprecated Operators'' of Adobe Technical
+Note \#5177,
+``\href{http://wwwimages.adobe.com/content/dam/Adobe/en/devnet/font/pdfs/5177.Type2.pdf}{Type 2 Charstring Format}'',
+PDF applications should support this operator and hence this warning
+message can be ignored.
 
-The remap option \option{-r} in fontmaps is no longer supported and is
-silently ignored. The command line option \option{-e} to disable partial
-(subset) font embedding is not supported.
+Use of Type1 font should be avoided as much as possible.
+Please consider using OpenType version instead.

+\section{Encryption Support}\label{SEC:encryption}
+
+\dvipdfmx\ offers basic PDF password security support including the 256-bit AES encryption.
+Only the ``Standard'' security handler is supported and the Public-key security handler is not
+supported.
+
+Encryption is enabled by \option{-S} command line option.
+\begin{lstlisting}
+  dvipdfmx -S -K 128 -P 0x14
+\end{lstlisting}
+where \code{-K} and \code{-P} options are used to specify encryption key length and
+permission flags respectively, and are briefly explained in Table~\ref{TABLE:enc-options}.
+
+\begin{table}
+  \centering
+  \begin{tabular}{lp{8cm}}\hline
+      Option & Description \\ \hline\hline
+      \code{-S} & Enable PDF encryption. \\
+      \code{-K} \textit{number} & Set encryption key length. The default value
+      is 40.\\
+      \code{-P} \textit{number} & Set permission flags for PDF encryption.
+      The \textit{number} is a 32-bit unsigned integer representing permission
+      flags.
+      See, Table~\ref{TABLE:flags}. The default value is \code{0x003C}.\\
+      \hline
+  \end{tabular}
+  \caption{Command line options for encryption.}%
+  \label{TABLE:enc-options}
+\end{table}
+
+When \dvipdfmx\ is invoked with encryption via the \code{-S} option,
+passwords will be asked.
+However, in some circumstances, it might be desirable to avoid being prompted for
+passwords. In that case, use the \code{pdf:encrypt} special to supply passwords in
+the \TeX\ file, as,
+\begin{lstlisting}
+  \special{pdf:encrypt userpw (foo) ownerpw (bar) length 128 perm 20}
+\end{lstlisting}
+Here, user and owner passwords are supplied as PDF string objects (\code{foo} and \code{bar}
+in the example above) which can be empty.
+
+Up to two passwords can be specified for a document -- an owner password and a user password.
+If a user attempts to open an encrypted document with user password being set, PDF application
+should prompt for a password. Users are allowed to access the contents of the document only when
+either password is correctly supplied.
+Depending on which password (user or owner) was supplied, additional operations
+allowed for the opened document is determined; full access for users who opened
+with the correct owner password or additional operations
+controlled by permission flags for users who opened with the correct user password.
+
+Although PDF specification allows various character encodings other than \code{US-ASCII}
+for entering password, \dvipdfmx\ is unable to handle it properly.
+Thus it must be assumed that \code{US-ASCII} is used for password strings.
+
+Access permision flags can be specified via \option{-P} command-line option.
+Each bits of (32-bit unsigned) integer number given to this option represents user
+access permissions; e.g., bit position 3 for allowing ``print'', 4 for
+``modify'', 5 for ``copy or extract'', and so on. See, Table~\ref{TABLE:flags}.
+For example, \code{-P 0x34} allows printing, copying and extraction of text, and adding and
+modifying text annotation and filling in interactive form fields (but disallows
+modification of the contents of the document).
+\begin{table}
+    \centering
+    \begin{tabular}{lp{8.3cm}}\hline
+        Bit Position & Meaning \\ \hline\hline
+        3 & (Revision 2) Print the document. \\
+          & (Revision 3 or greater) Print the document. Print quality depending on bit 12.\\
+        4 & Modify the contents of the documentby operations other than those controlled
+            by bits 6, 9, and 11. \\
+        5 & Copy or extract text and graphics from the document. \\
+        6 & Add or modify text annotations, fill in interactive form fields.
+            Creation and modification of interactive form field is also
+            allowed if bit 4 is set.\\
+        9 & (Revision 3 or greater) Fill in existing interactive form fields
+            (including signature fields), even if bit 6 is clear.\\
+        10  & \em{Deprecated in PDF 2.0} \\
+            & (Revision 3 or greater) Extract text and graphics (in support of accessibility to
+              users with disabilities or for other purposes).\\
+        11  & (Revision 3 or greater) Assemble the document
+              (insert, rotate, or delete pages and create document outline items or thumbnail
+              images), even if bit 4 is clear.\\
+        12  & (Revision 3 or greater) High-quality printing.
+              When this bit is clear (and bit 3 is set), printing shall be limited to a low-level,
+              possibly of degraded quality.\\
+        \hline
+    \end{tabular}
+    \caption{Flag bits and their short explaination.
+            Revision 2 is used when encryption key length is 40 bits or when PDF output
+            version is less than 1.5. Otherwise, Rivision 3 or greater is used.}\label{TABLE:flags}
+\end{table}
+
+The \option{-K} option can be used to specify the encryption key length.
+The key length must be multiple of 8 in the range 40 to 128, or 256 (for PDF
+version 1.7 plus Adobe Extension or PDF version 2.0). Please note
+that when key length 256 is specified for PDF version 1.7 output, it requires
+Adobe's Extension to \lnum{PDF-1.7} and hence PDF applications may not support it.
+PDF version 1.4 is required for key length more than 40 bits. AES encryption algorithm requires
+PDF version 1.6.
+
+To show some examples:\\
+128-bit AES encryption with print-only (high-quality) setting,
+\begin{lstlisting}
+  dvipdfmx -V 5 -S -K 128 -P 0x804 input.dvi
+\end{lstlisting}
+256-bit AES encryption with print (low-quality), adding and modifying text annotations
+allowed,
+\begin{lstlisting}
+  dvipdfmx -V 2.0 -S -K 256 -P 0x24 input.dvi
+\end{lstlisting}
+
+The default value for \option{K} is 40 and for \option{-P} is \code{0x003C0}
+(all bits from bit-position 3 to 6 set).
+
+\chapter{Compatibility}
+
+\section{Incompatible Changes}\label{SEC:compatibility}
+
+There are various minor incompatible changes to \dvipdfm.
+
+The \option{-C} command line option may be used for compatibility to
+\dvipdfm\ or older versions of \dvipdfmx. The \option{-C} option takes flags
+meaning
+\begin{itemize}
+    \item bit position 2: Use semi-transparent filling for tpic shading
+    command, instead of opaque gray color. (requires PDF 1.4)
+    \item bit position 3: Treat all CID-keyed font as fixed-pitch font. This is
+    only for compatibility.
+    \item bit position 4: Do not replace duplicate fontmap entries.
+    \dvipdfm\ behavior.
+    \item bit position 5: Do not optimize PDF destinations. Use this if you
+    want to refer from other files to destinations in the current file.
+    \item bit position 6: Do not use predictor filter for Flate compression.
+    \item bit position 7: Do not use object stream.
+\end{itemize}
+
+The remap option \option{-r} in fontmaps is no longer supported and is
+silently ignored. The command line option \option{-e} to disable partial
+(subset) font embedding is not supported.
+
+\section{Important Changes}
+
+Here is a list of important changes since the \TeX\ Live 2016 release:
+\begin{itemize}
+\item Changes to make PDF/A creation easier: Always write CIDSet and CharSet
+for embedded fonts. Do not compress XMP metadata.
+\item Merge from libdpx for p\TeX-ng by Clerk Ma.
+\item Addition of \code{STHeiti-Regular-Acro} for CJK `Standard' fonts.
+\item Command line option \option{-p} takes precedence over \code{papersize}
+and \code{pagesize} specials.
+\item Fixed serious bugs in supporting `\code{unicode}' encoding:
+OpenType Layout Feature \code{vert} and \code{vrt2} was not enabled.
+Support for format 2 CFF charsets was broken.
+\item Added simplified version of OpenType Layout support: The `\option{-l}'
+option in fontmaps.
+\end{itemize}
+The full \code{ChangeLog} entries can be viewed via the web interface of the
+\TeX\ Live SVN repository:
+\medskip
+
+\url{http://www.tug.org/svn/texlive/trunk/Build/source/texk/dvipdfm-x}
+\medskip
+
+There was an undocumented feature for supporting OpenType Layout but it was
+dropped. Simplified support for the OpenType Layout was intorduced instead.
