2.039 2021-03-04
- PDF::API2->open($filename) no longer reads the entire file into memory
before working on it, instead reading from the file as needed. This
results in a substantial reduction in memory usage and start-up time for
large PDF files, particularly in cases where the calling script doesn't
need to access all of the contents of the PDF.
- PDF files containing cross-reference streams can now be modified and saved
normally. Previously, they were read-only.
- $text->paragraph(...) and $text->paragraphs(...) (formerly "section") are
no longer undocumented and experimental. If you were previously using
them at your own risk, note that "-spillover" is no longer an option (text
will always wrap inside the specified width if possible). In addition,
paragraphs(...) no longer collapses consecutive newlines.
- [RT #98546] There is now an -align-last option for justified text to
specify how the final line should be justified. Left is still the
default.
- Code in the PDF::API2::Basic::PDF namespace was originally licensed under
the Perl Artistic License, which has been determined to not be
(L)GPL-compatible. Martin Hosken has graciously granted an MIT license
for use of his code contained in PDF::API2, so the distribution may now be
used solely under the terms of the LGPL rather than requiring both
licenses simultaneously. Many thanks to Petr Pisar for his help in
working through the licensing issues.
- Renamed $text->lead(...) to $text->leading(...). The old name is
deprecated but will continue to work. If you're modifying PDF::API2
objects by editing their hash values instead of using these accessors,
you'll need to update your code.
- Added a -compress option (on by default) to PDF::API2->new(), open(), and
open_scalar(). If disabled, most streams won't be compressed, which can
simplify debugging.
