texlive-xcolor 2025.2

Driver-independent color extensions for LaTeX and pdfLaTeX

The package starts from the basic facilities of the colorcolor package, and provides easy driver-independent access to several kinds of color tints, shades, tones, and mixes of arbitrary colors. It allows a user to select a document-wide target color model and offers complete tools for conversion between eight color models. Additionally, there is a command for alternating row colors plus repeated non-aligned material (like horizontal lines) in tables.
