The GraphicxSP Package Author: D. P. Story Dated: 2019-11-13

What's new (2019-11-13) The latest LaTeX core defines IfFileExists@, which brakes this package, fix is applied.

What's new (2018-11-20) Minor changes to support the icon-appr package.

GraphicxSP is an extension of the graphicx package. GraphicxSP embeds the graphic in the PDF document once, and allows the document author to use and re-use that same graphic without significantly increasing the file size. Additionally, GraphicxSP supports Adobe transparency imaging model.

GraphicxSP is useful for repeated graphics like backgrounds, watermarks, company/universit logos and so on. The graphics produced by GraphicxSP appears to be clearer at high zoom factors than the same graphic produced by the classic Graphic package.

Restriction: This package requires that the PDF be created by Adobe Distiller, version 5.0 or greater for graphics without transparency, version 5.0 with transparency.

Installation Instructions: Place the zip file in your latex search path and unzip. Refresh your file name database, and you are ready to go. Start with documentation and the demo files contained in the examples folder.
