File perl-PDF-API2.changes of Package perl-PDF-API2
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Fri Jul 25 09:32:42 UTC 2014 - coolo@suse.com
- updated to 2.022
- Added $pdf->version() get/set method. When opening an existing
PDF, the existing version number will now be retained.
- Renamed the following in PDF::API2:
- importpage to import_page
- openScalar to open_scalar
The old names are deprecated.
- [RT #69503] Fix the -firstpage option to $pdf->preferences() so
that it doesn't always lead to a crash (reported by Dietrich
Streifert).
- [RT #47974] Accept malformed xref subsections (with a warning)
that have extraneous spaces on the first line (reported by
Abhinav Kaushik).
- [RT #94505] For Code128 barcodes, the initial character set is
now optional (defaults to B or C depending on the content to be
encoded). The initial character set can be passed as a capital
letter, and the program will die if an invalid character set is
requested (requested by Andrea Nall).
- Interleaved 2 of 5 barcodes now prepend a zero when an odd
number of digits is specified, which is standard behavior.
Previously, a zero was appended instead.
- $page->rotate(0) now sets rotation to 0 degrees rather than
deleting an existing page rotation command. Page rotation is
inherited, so this is necessary to undo any inherited page
rotation.
- Fix: Attempts to use EAN-128 barcodes resulted in an error.
- Add a more informative error when text() is called without first
setting a font(), and when font() is called without including a
font size.
- remove work around only applied on 11.3 and 11.4
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Mon Mar 17 13:13:14 UTC 2014 - coolo@suse.com
- updated to 2.021
- Fixed numerous bugs in the string parsing code, including the
one reported in [RT #63918] by Frank Doepper.
- [RT #41049] Rewrote literal string parsing to prevent a stack
overflow due to an inefficient regex (reported by Sergei
Fetisov).
- [RT #91822] Fix compression of GIF images to ensure that output
codes don't exceed 12 bits (reported by Vadim Repin).
- The RunLengthDecode filter didn't actually work. Its code has
been rewritten and now passes basic encoding and decoding tests.
- Fix Code128 barcode switching from Code C to Code B in certain
cases (reported by Doru Petrescu).

- update to 2.020
* Give a more informative error message when a PDF file using a
cross-reference stream is encountered. The Known Issues section
of the documentation includes pointers on how to add support in
case someone else can get to this before I do.
* Text using TrueType fonts is now searchable again. In version
0.61, an undocumented -unicodemap option was added to nearly all
of the font resource methods, which only included a ToUnicode
CMap if it was set (and it's required in order for PDF readers
to be able to identify individual characters if BaseEncoding
isn't present, which it isn't for TrueType fonts).
I've left the -unicodemap option in place, and it's still
undocumented (except here), but it's now on by default. Call
$pdf->ttfont($fontfile, -unicodemap => 0) if you want to disable
it for performance or file size reasons.
* Add a note to the stringify method's documentation saying that
it's a destructive operation.
* The various filter types have their own classes in the
PDF::API2::Basic::PDF::Filter namespace now, rather than having
all of the packages in Filter.pm.
* To facilitate testing and ensure that identically-generated PDFs
have identical output in Perl 5.17.5 or later, PDF dictionary
keys are now sorted during output.

- fix License (spdx.org)
* LGPL-2.1+
- fix description

Tue Sep 6 22:18:58 UTC 2011 - jw@suse.com
- workround broken Unicode::UCD in 11.4 and 11.3:
We providing our own UnicodeData.txt to make
t/00-all-usable.t happy.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Thu Mar 31 18:41:56 UTC 2011 - coolo@novell.com
- update to 2.019
- [RT #66167] Fix a typo in the require statement for code128
barcodes (TC Kuan).
- Numerous modules are now only loaded when they're needed, which
should help speed up the load time and reduce the memory
footprint.
- Test coverage is up to about 45% of the codebase.
- The tests in 2.017 exposed a floating point issue where some
computers give more trailing zeros than others. It doesn't
affect the output, but it does break the tests on those
computers, since the PDFs are slightly different. This version
modifies the float() method to remove trailing zeros, which
should fix the test breakage and give consistent PDFs.
- The DejaVu fonts have been removed from the distribution, since
they were only used by one example script. If you need them for
your project, you can download them from http://dejavu-fonts.org
