Reply-To:	cygwin AT cygwin DOT com

The Ghostscript package has been updated to 8.15-2.  This is the
first release of the Cygwin version of the Ghostscript 8.1x series.

The Cygwin version of GPL Ghostscript supports both a native Win32
version and a X11 version for Cygwin XFree86.  A single source
package is used to build both versions.  Three separate packages
are used:

  * A base package, ghostscript-base, which contains the support
    files necessary for both the native and X11 versions, as well
    as the manual pages and documentation.

  * A native package, ghostscript, which contains the native version
    of Ghostscript (gs.exe), along with the corresponding scripts.

  * An X11 package, ghostscript-x11, which contains the X11 version
    of Ghostscript (gs.exe) and scripts.

Both binary versions use the libpng and zlib shared libraries.

Enhancements to Ghostscript-8.1x include
* PDF writer now implements PDF 1.4 encryption.
* Support for JBIG2 encoded images.
* Improved font support and rendering.
Details are at /usr/share/doc/ghostscript-8.15/History8.htm

Some files were missing in ghostscript-8.15-1, so please use
ghostscript-8.15-2 instead.


To update your installation, click on the "Install Cygwin now" link on
the http://cygwin.com/ web page.  This downloads setup.exe to your
system.  Then, run setup and answer all of the questions.

If you have questions or comments, please send them to the Cygwin
mailing list.
