Version 5.0.0.762

New Features and Improvements

• Ability to render SVG (Scalable Vector Graphics) images to PDF, see GrapeCity.Documents.Svg.GcSvgDocument class and GcGraphics.DrawSvg()/MeasureSvg() methods.

• Method GcPdfDocument.OptimizeFonts(): optimizes font usage by merging subsets of same fonts, and by removing duplicate and unused fonts.

• An arbitrary PDF can be linearized ("fast web view") by loading it into GcPdfDocument and saving with SaveMode.Linearized parameter passed to an appropriate Save()/Sign() method overload.

Changes From the Previous Version

• When using a Security Handler Revision 4 or earlier with unspecified owner password, it is set to user password. This behavior is consistent with PDF spec.

Resolved Issues

• After loading some PDFs the value of GcPdfDocument.Linearized property is incorrect.

• StackOverflow exception occurs when merging or linearizing certain PDFs.

• Pen.DashOffset is not handled correctly when rendering to GcPdfGraphics.

• Saving a certain PDF to PNG produces incorrect result.

Breaking Changes

• GcPdfDocument.Linearized property is now read-only (was read-write). Use GcPdfDocument.Save(.., SaveMode.Linearized) to linearize the current document.

Breaking changes affecting all GrapeCity.Documents packages:

• GrapeCity.Documents.Common package has been removed, types defined in it have been moved to GrapeCity.Documents.Imaging.

• GrapeCity.Documents.Common.Windows package has been replaced by GrapeCity.Documents.Imaging.Windows.

• GrapeCity.Documents.Pdf.Resources has been removed, types defined in it have been moved to GrapeCity.Documents.Pdf.
