xhtml2pdf 0.2.28

v.0.2.28

on Python PyPI

🎉 New

• Output for print shops: @page { bleed: 3mm; marks: crop cross } grows
  the page around its trim size, with a TrimBox and a BleedBox,
  backgrounds that reach into the bleed and crop and registration marks
  outside it.
• device-cmyk() and cmyk() colours in CSS, written to the PDF in
  DeviceCMYK.
• PDF/X-4: pdfx={"profile": ..., "condition": ...}, or
  --pdfx-profile on the command line, adds the output intent, XMP
  metadata and page boxes PDF/X asks for, tags RGB as sRGB and draws neutral
  greys on the black plate.
• A document with bleed, marks or PDF/X logs the images drawn under 300 ppi
  and the text set in fonts that are not embedded.
• @font-face takes OpenType fonts with PostScript (CFF) outlines, and
  WOFF and WOFF2 web fonts, converted to TrueType with fontTools: the new
  fonts extra, pip install 'xhtml2pdf[fonts]'. The first source of
  a src list that loads is used; the rest are fallbacks.

🐛 Bug-Fixes

• Text in the MSung-Light face (traditional Chinese) is written with the
  CMap of its own character collection, UniCNS-UCS2-H. Viewers that
  check the pair, such as Poppler, showed none of it.
• A colour function in the background shorthand is read as the
  background colour, also when an argument has a decimal point:
  background: rgb(10.5, 0, 0) was taken for an image.
• A Type 1 face named in @font-face by its .pfb file is embedded,
  with the .afm beside it, as one named by its .afm already was.
• An SVG list-style-image is drawn as vectors. It was rasterised with
  renderPM, and failed the document when its backend was not installed.
