[hts-users:02476] Re: Nature of hts_engine_API-1.03/HTS-2.1.1 format change for .pdf files

[Keiichiro Oura <uratec@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

The old pdf files cannot be used in hts_engine API-1.03.
However, if you have mmf files and lists (HTS-2.1 format), pdf files
(hts_engine API-1.03 format) can be generated by using HHEd of
HTS-2.1.1.
I don't prepare the document of new file format.

Regards,
Keiichiro Oura
