- Update to 16.0.4
- Fixed some issues for left-to-right text with the new hOCR renderer.
It is still not default yet but will be made so soon.
Right-to-left text is still in progress.
- Added an error to prevent use of several versions of Ghostscript
that seem corrupt existing text in input PDFs.
Newly generated OCR is not affected.
For best results, use Ghostscript 10.02.1 or newer,
which contains the fix for the issue.

- Update to 16.0.3
- Changed minimum required Ghostscript to 9.54, to support users of RHEL 9 and its derivatives,
since that is the latest version available there.
- Removed warning message about CVE-2023-43115, on the assumption that most distributions have backported the patch by now.
- Changes from 16.0.2
- Temporarily changed PDF text renderer back to sandwich by default to address regressions in macOS Preview.
- Changes from 16.0.1
- Fixed text rendering issue with new hOCR text renderer - extraneous byte order marks.
- Tightened dependencies.
- Changes from 16.0.0
- Added OCR text renderer, combined the best ideas of Tesseract's PDF generator and the older hOCR transformer renderer.
The result is a hopefully permanent fix for wordssmushedtogetherwithoutspaces issues in extracted text, better
registration/position of text on skewed baselines :issue:`1009`, fixes to character output when the German Fraktur script
is used :issue:`1191`, proper rendering of right to left languages (Arabic, Hebrew, Persian) :issue:`1157`.
Asian languages may still have excessive word breaks compared to expectations. The new renderer is the default;
the old sandwich renderer is still available using --pdf-renderer sandwich; the old hOCR renderer is no more.
- The ocrmypdf.hocrtransform API has changed substantially.
- Support for Python 3.9 has been dropped. Python 3.10+ is now required.
- pikepdf >= 8.8.0 is now required.
