    The LaTeX Project Team submitted an update to the

    show-pdf-tags

    package.

    Version: 1.6
    License: mit

    Summary description: Extract PDF tags from tagged PDF files

    Announcement text: ------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The XML output from show-pdf-tags has been extended to show the
    AF relationship and media-type of associated files.

    This is a breaking change, generated XML will show this information.

    All associated files associated to Formula will have the same values added:
    so it should be easy to update any test suites testing for the original format.

    < AssociatedFile name="mathml-1.xml" xmlns="" >
    < AssociatedFile name="mathml-1.xml" relationship="Supplement" media-type="application/mathml+xml" xmlns="" >

    < AssociatedFile name="tag-AFfile2.tex" xmlns="" >
    < AssociatedFile name="tag-AFfile2.tex" relationship="Source" media-type="application/x-tex" xmlns="" >

    The Schema have been updated to allow for these attributes (and to check
    that MathML associated files have relationship Supplement).
    They also allow some modified strucure element names in the LaTeX namespace
    to match code in current and planned latex-dev releases.

    Some experimental support to generate PDF Association "Tag Tree Diagrams"
    using PlantUML is also provided as XSLT stylesheets transforming the
    XML output to PlantUML syntax.

    The XML output from show-pdf-tags has been extended to show the
    PDF version as <PDF version="2.0">.

    The Schema has been updated to optionally allow this attribute,
    and if present enforce that it has value 2.0 for the PDF/UA-2 schema
    or 1.4, .. 1.7 or 2.0 for the UA-1 schema.

    In addition several new structure elements that are introduced in
    the current latex-dev release are now supported by the schema.
