[OS X TeX] Tiger & TeX

[Simon Spiegel]

I can't give you a lot of details, but PDF is been massively enhanced 
in Tiger:

- The PDF engine in Tiger now supports PDF 1.5, that means support for 
annotations, encryption, embedded movies, forms and other niceties in 
Preview.

- There's now something called PDFKit which Apple touted as "WebKit for 
Preview". I don't know what the exact implications are, but developers 
should have much more and easier options when it comes to handle PDFs 
in Tiger. AFAIK apps like TeXniScope can benefit from this.

- CoreData makes handling data much easier for developers, this will 
bring benefits to apps like BibDesk.
