2.033 2017-07-06
- [RT #122371] Remove a couple of improperly-placed weaken statements
(reported by Phil Perry).
- [RT #122372] Fix weakening when a page is added to the end of a multiple
page document (reported by Phil Perry).

2.032 2017-07-02
- PDF::API2 has many circular references, and the end() method
doesn't clear them all, so memory is leaked. This release uses
Scalar::Util's weaken() function to improve garbage collection.
A significant number of circular references have been weakened,
though many likely still remain.
- [RT #120756] Eliminate a warning for an ambiguous call to
CORE::open (first reported by Abdelbaki Brahmia).
- $text->text_justified() and $text->text_fill_justified() now
adjust the space between words rather than stretching individual
characters in order to get the text to fit.
- [RT #120397] Indirect references and indirect objects can have
comments embedded in their whitespace, and their object number
and generation may be split across multiple lines, which may not
all be buffered (reported by SPROUT).
- [RT #120450] Fix PDF::API2->open($filename)->stringify()
(reported by SPROUT).
- Fix an off-by-one error when calculating text width while
charspace is non-zero.
- [RT #120048] Fix PDF::API2->synfont() (broken in 2.029, fixed by Vadim
Repin) and add basic testing.

2.031 2017-01-26
- Fix use of cache files when reading streams: temp files will now
be used any time a stream is larger than 16MB (by default).
Formerly, due to a bug, they would only be created when a 4kB
chunk of a stream increased to 16kB or more after being
decompressed.
- Numbers, booleans, and null values can now be read from object
streams.
- Update to [RT #113290]: Objects inside a large object stream are
now read without loading the entire object stream into memory.
- DEPRECATION: The low-level new_api methods have been deprecated
in favor of calling new directly. If your code uses
new_api($api2, ...), replace it with new($api2->{'pdf'}, ...).
- [RT #118352] Don't crash when adding an annotation to a page
that has an existing annotations array stored as an indirect
object (reported by Johan Vromans).
- [RT #118717] Die with an informative error if a file can't be
opened during open() or saveas() (reported by Johan Vromans).

- [RT #113293] Files with cross-reference streams weren't
correctly setting the max object number (report and
troubleshooting by Marco Pessotto).
- Handle TIFF images with strips that are wider than the image
(report and patch by Jeffrey Ratcliffe).
- [RT #98574] Increase test coverage of PDF::API2::Content (tests
by Phil Perry).

filehandles in addition to filenames (patch by Johan Vromans).
- [RT #33970] Fail fast when a referenced file can't be opened

- Add -simplex, -duplexfliplongedge and -duplexflipshortedge as
options to $pdf->preferences() (requested by Doug Poulin).

2.027 2016-03-11
- This release contains seven fixes for parsing PDFs. They mostly
affect files using cross-reference streams, which were first
supported in the previous release. Thanks to Marco Pessotto and
Stuart Henderson for their help identifying and troubleshooting
bugs.
- Added contrib/pdf-debug.pl to help track down issues related to
opening and parsing PDFs.

and object streams (patch by Don Huettl of Grant Street Group).
- [RT #107333] Accept an empty string as a valid Name, per PDF
spec 1.7 section 7.3.5 (patch by Mark Balitsky).
- [RT #98551] Rename aliases 2A, 4A, 2B, and 4B to 2A0, 4A0, 2B0,
and 4B0. The old names will continue to work, but are now
undocumented (patch by Phil Perry).
- Add -mils and -color as options for barcodes. Reset linedash so
that barcodes are always solid lines (patch by Erelen).
- [RT #98549] Rename meterlimit to miterlimit (patch by Phil
Perry).
- [RT #98534] Rename hspace to hscale (patch by Phil Perry).
- Fixed an infinite loop when RunLengthDecode is used for output.
- [RT #65582] Fix embedding of OpenType fonts (fix by Simon Cozens).
- [RT #67767] Allow an empty page to be imported into a PDF using
importPageIntoForm (reported by Antti Lankila).
- [RT #66341] Various fixes for ASCII85Decode and LZWDecode.

- updated to 2.025
see /usr/share/doc/packages/perl-PDF-API2/Changes
2.025 2015-09-23
- The previous release included a patch that broke compatibility
with Perl 5.8.x. The minimum supported version is now Perl
5.8.5, and there is a .perl-version file to facilitate testing
using plenv.

2.024 2015-09-18
- [RT #104133] Include all bounding boxes when importing a page
(patch by Don Huettl of Grant Street Group).
- [RT #104133] When retrieving bounding boxes for a page, fall
back according to the defaults listed in the PDF spec (patch by
Don Huettl of Grant Street Group).
- Barcodes now take an optional -caption argument that will be
printed beneath the barcode. This can replace or be used in
conjunction with the text representation of the barcode
(requested by Gareth Tunley).
- [RT #105581] Calls to width() in BaseFont are now significantly
faster (patch by Dmitri Tikhonov).
-------------------------------------------------------------------

- updated to 2.023
see /usr/share/doc/packages/perl-PDF-API2/Changes
2.023 2014-09-12
- The fix for [RT #69503] broke a previously-working case where a
page object could be passed (and was expected). The -firstpage
option now accepts a page object or a page number. Thanks to
Marco Pessotto for the bug report and test.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
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).
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Thu Aug 1 11:42:07 UTC 2013 - chris@computersalat.de
- 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.

- 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
