Reader: Second PDF not always displayed correctly

When opening a PDF in PDF24 Reader and then minifying the Reader and then opening another PDF in the Reader, the second PDF was not always displayed correctly in the Reader. When placing the elements, the minified state prevented the second PDF from being displayed at full size. This unsightly problem has been fixed.

Reader: Bookmark icon was not grayed out

The bookmark area icon in the sidebar of a PDF was no longer grayed out if there is no page directory. This problem has been fixed.

Common: Language files updated

Installer: Small optimization in EXE Installer

The Webview2 component is now optional. Added a check whether Weview2 is already installed or not if the Webview2 component is deselected. Without Webview2 the toolbox cannot start. If Webview2 is not selected and Webview2 is not yet installed, then a corresponding message is displayed and the user must activate Webview2.

Die Freeware "PDF Split and Merge" fügt einzelne PDFs zusammen und umgekehrt. Sie haben mehrere Präsentationen als PDF vorliegen und müssen daraus eine einzelne erstellen - jedes PDF in die Ursprungsdatei zurückzuverwandeln, anschließend zusammenzufügen und danach erneut zu konvertieren gestaltet sich als mühselig und zeitintensiv.

Die Freeware "PDF Split and Merge" kürzt den Prozess ab, indem es bereits existierende PDFs über nur wenige Mausklicks trennt oder zusammenfügt.

Changelog

    Reader: New possibility to disable Javascript and XFA:

    Javascript and XFA can now also be disabled via reader.enableJavaScript and reader.enableXfa. These options can be used in the HKCU and HKLM section of the registry.

    Reader: Fixed a problem with wrong display page size:

    Fixed an issue with incorrect page size in the UI, especially when the sidebar is open with thumbnails. This could happen if the page sizes and orientations are different in the PDF. This issue is fixed.

    Reader: Problem with pixelated pages fixed:

    Fixed another problem with pixelated pages when a PDF is loaded and the sidebar is visible. Internally, in the main view, it was then rendered with wrong size and scaled up. This problem is off the table.

    Reader: Horizontal scrolling via SHIFT + WHEEL:

    With SHIFT + WHEEL you can now scroll a page horizontally. This behavior is also available in other PDF readers.

    Reader: PDFium updated to the latest version:

    PDFium is the core component of PDF24 Reader. In the PDFium project there were again some improvements, which now also benefit the PDF24 Reader.
    Toolbox: PDF Editor uses the crop box to calculate the overlay transformation:
    In the PDF Editor, an overlay is created that is placed over the PDF. Here, the crop box is now taken into account so that the final generated PDF after saving looks exactly as in the edit view. In older versions there were misplaced elements due to the missing support for the crop box. Affected tools are Edit PDF, Annotate PDF and Redact PDF.

    Reader: Further optimization in the redact tool:

    The redaction tool now also deletes resources from redacted pages, as the resources may contain images and overlays with confidential information that could be subsequently read from the PDF.

    Common: Standard context menu of Webview2 can be deactivated:

    The webview2.enableContextMenu registry option can now be used to enable/disable the default context menu of Webview2.
    Common: Webview2 updated to version 109.0.1518.78
    Common: JRE updated to version 19.0.2
    Common: Language files updated

    TWAIN: Issue regarding not visible scanned page fixed:

    A scanned file was sometimes not sent to the Creator where the file can be saved. There was an error and the scanner middleware app deleted the file too early, so the Creator could not get the file. This issue has now been fixed as well.

    OCR: Automatic page rotation for the profiles deactivated:

    When applying a profile, auto page rotation is now disabled as it is controlled by an OCR option and executed by the OCR processor. Previously, you had to create a custom profile with the auto-rotation option disabled in the profile, but this is cumbersome.

    OCR: No application of a profile when file is skipped:

    If a file was skipped, e.g. because of recognized text, then the engine now also does not apply the profile after the text recognition phase. That is, if the file was skipped, it is passed on without any further changes.

    OCR: Grid lines enabled:

    The grid lines of the list view are now enabled, which is helpful if you load and process a lot of files.

    OCR: Fixed crash problem:

    A crash problem when processing multiple files in parallel has been fixed. Internally, due to concurrency, a condition could occur that ultimately caused the app to crash. This reported issue has been investigated and fixed.

    OCR: Better visual feedback when adding many files:

    When you add many files at once, there is now better feedback and the list updates when a new file is loaded. Previously, the UI only redisplayed at the end when all files were loaded.

    Creator: OLE drag & drop functions improved:

    The OLE drag and drop functions have been revised and improved to fix two issues with the drag and drop handlers. This optimizes the way files and other information are created and how data is exchanged. This improves compatibility with other programs.

    PDF Printer: $id placeholder in shell command:

    The $id placeholder is now available in the shell command which can be set when the PDF printer automatically saves a file. Previously this placeholder was only available in the file name.

PDFStitcher lets you stitch multiple PDF pages into a single-page document, AKA N-Up.

The developer designed PDFSticher specifically to convert sewing patterns into a convenient and easy-to-follow format for projects, but it can be used for any multiple-page PDF.

PDFStitcher can select layers for inclusion/exclusion in the final output. Also, each layer can modify line properties if the input PDF is compatible. PDFStitcher can additionally detect system language settings and change localization if supported. PDFStitcher is straightforward to use, and the UI lends itself to that ease of use. It works quickly, even with a large number of pages selected.

Changelog

   

In beta v1 I wasn't including some files in the Windows/mac builds, use this one instead!


0.8 Beta 1

This release is long overdue! It's marked as beta because it needs more testing, so I would appreciate any and all feedback if you want to give it a try. As usual, translations for new features are not yet available, so I'd love some help over at Weblate .

New features

The biggest new thing is a menu item for bug reports! Go to Help -> Report a Bug, and it will gather a bunch of information about your system. Edit this field to describe the problem, then copy and paste into either a GitHub issue (preferred, but requires a GitHub account), or an email to ccurtis@mtroyal.ca .

The bug report dialog also has a button to create a "mangled" version of your input document - this anonymizes and scrambles the contents of the PDF and so that the intellectual property is lost, but the structure is retained. Clicking the "Mangle PDF" button will create a new document on your desktop with a gibberish hash name like 1asdfl3289sd8323kd8.pdf. Attach this PDF to your bug report issue or email and it will allow me to replicate the issue a lot easier!

PDFStitcher also now checks the PDF permissions and displays a message to the user that this should be used for personal use only.

Bug fixes

    Translations:
        flatpak and pypi version now have translation files included
        Language choice no longer depends on country code (e.g. Canadian French should correctly be detected as French) ( #163 )
        If Slovak detected, language falls back to Czech instead of English ( #120 )
        If language errors occur, they're now displayed in the log panel

    User interface:
        layer list changed to a neutral grey for compatibility with dark mode
        selecting centimetres now works ( #164 )
        update checks no longer happen in flatpak environment
        version comparisons should be more robust (to things like beta!)

    Compatibility:
        Native version for M1/M2 macOS processors now available (thanks to a self-hosted mac mini action runner!). If you have a mac from fall 2020 or later, it's probably got the Apple Silicon chip and you should download the "ARM64.dmg" version. If you have a mac with an Intel chip, download the "X64.dmg" version.
        Python version rolled back to v3.8, should work on Windows 7 again (64-bit), but I haven't been able to test this.
