This version comes with major changes on the technical level and hardly visible to the user. Among those low-level changes are internal handling of geometry object (rectangle, points and friends) and name changes to standard PDF objects, like PDF_NAME_Rect has been renamed to PDF_NAME(Rect).

But there are notable functionality enhancements as well:

  • updating an encrypted PDF lets you optionally keep encryption
  • MuPDF messages going to STDOUT and STDERR are now intercepted and will no longer appear
  • several new annotation types are officially supported by MuPDF
  • a new geometry object Quad supports rectangles that are no longer axis-aligned. This allows addressing location of "tilted" text (i.e. which is neither horizontal nor vertical)

As always, a number of issues has been fixed as well.
