Dad Joke of the Release

I tried to write a joke about fonts… but it just wasn’t my type 😄

Release Notes


1. OCR: Comprehensive Font Support + TypeScript Definitions

  • Added full multi-language font embedding for OCR output.
  • Fixed an issue where languages like Japanese displayed as ???? when downloading.
  • Improved overall OCR performance.
  • Language files are now cached after the first download, preventing repeated downloads.
  • Added TypeScript type definitions for OCR modules.

2. Text-to-PDF: Multi-Language Rendering Improvements

  • Added proper support for non-Latin languages, which previously appeared as ??? when exported.
  • Enhanced Unicode handling for a wide variety of scripts.

Limitations:

  • RTL languages (e.g., Arabic) remain tricky.
  • They may work inconsistently for OCR and Text-to-PDF and I would need to look into it further

3. Form Creator Enhancements

  • Added grid-line support for more precise form layout.
  • Added border customization options:
    • Change border colors
    • Remove borders entirely for cleaner designs

4. UI Fixes

  • Fixed an issue where the Settings button was not visible on touchscreen devices.

5. Quick Update

I’ll be taking a short break until the 7th.
Please help one another where possible and I’ll review all pending issues once I’m back.

Till then, take care & stay hydrated and thank you for your continued support ❤️
