This is a feature release with the following additions:

• Basic support for CMap files and CID-keyed fonts has been added. This enables the processing of DVI files created with pTeX, for example.
  
• dvisvgm also tries to translate character codes according to the available encoding tables stored in the referenced TrueType/OpenType font file.
• Support for OpenType (OTF) fonts has been added.
• If a DVI file contains bounding box information created by the preview package, the size of the SVG is adapted accordingly. Also, dvisvgm prints a message showing the assigned width, height, and depth values in T_EX point units. Especially, the depth value can be used to vertically align the SVG graphics with the baseline of surrounding text in HTML or XSL-FO documents, for example.
