[Groff] New GNU GS release


From: Alejandro Lopez-Valencia

I don't know if this release includes the newer GPL URW++ fonts with latin2
and cyrillic support I mentioned recently in the list, but it might. PDF
support is much, much better for sure.

Here is the original announcement (URIs may wrap):

Subject: GPL Ghostscript 8.01 release
Date: Mon, 2 Feb 2004 16:38:42 -0800

artofcode LLC and Artifex Software, Inc. are proud to announce the release
of GPL Ghostscript 8.01. This release is based on the AFPL Ghostscript 8.00
release of 14 months ago.

Source packages are available from the usual locations and their mirrors:

http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=1897&package_id=108733
&release_id=214554
http://mirror.cs.wisc.edu/pub/mirrors/ghost/GPL/gs801/

The most significant new feature since 7.0x is support for DeviceN
colorspaces, up to 8 colorants total at 8 bits per component. Also, pdfwrite
has seen considerable improvement in font handling, and many other bug
fixes.
