For example, when has fixlatex2e been added to latex2e. We have to modify our oldest latex version policy in function of that. Also, last time I checked, the fixes in there seemed rather esoteric, and people who really need them could maybe do it by hand. But maybe I am mistaken Concerning the pdflatex issue, I am really not keen of hardcoding yet more formats into the code. The converter starting as a nice and general framework, and now, instead of extending it nicely to fix its problem (with new flags, for example), we are in the process of adding code here and there saying "oh, I know, this one is a special case, I'll hardcode what to do". That does not make sense. I'd rather see a new flag 'forpdf' or whatever added to converters and treat only the formats that have this flag speciially. The same holds for the formats that are arbitrarily removed from the export list in the menubackend. JMarc
