This release features improvements for searching in the viewer: searching with/without diacritics, arbitrary whitespace matching, searching for hyphenated words when linebreaks are present and searching around punctuation characters. Moreover, this release contains many bugfixes and optimizations, in particular for annotations, font/image conversion, SMask rendering, text layer rendering and TypeScript definitions.
