This release brings the new custom cross reference text functionality introduced in Asciidoctor 1.5.6 to Asciidoctor PDF. It also upgrades Prawn SVG to the latest version, bringing generic font names, linear gradients, and a fix for dotted borders to SVGs, and upgrades Prawn Templates to 0.1.1. See the changelog for a full set of changes.
IMPORTANT: Make sure to update the prawn-svg gem to 0.27.1 when you update the asciidoctor-pdf gem. Earlier versions of prawn-svg had a sizing regression.
