v2.01 December 2007
  • Fixed WMF/EMF problem with fonts that are specified with a non-default width for their point size.
  • Extended the number of files that can be added from the "Add Image" dialog box - previously the filenames of all added files had to be a total of 255 characters or less - now it is 30000 characters. Note this does not affect the ability to "drag and drop" files which did not have this limit.

v2.0 October 2007
  • Added option for Bates (Page/Document) numbering.
  • Added option to override the specified (or default) DPI setting and use the actual DPI recorded in the image file.
  • Added 128 bit encryption support.
  • Added option to force the PDF document to be encrypted in all circumstances.
  • Added option for image rotation that rotates all images by 90, 180 or 270 degrees.
  • Added option for automatic image rotation that rotates (if required) an image by 90 or 270 degrees so that all images are either in portrait or landscape orientation.
  • Added option to flip images horizontally, vertically or both.
  • Added option to convert images from color to grayscale.
  • Added option to to produce a negative image.
  • Added option to re-compress JPEG images at a specified quality level.
  • Added option that includes any OCR'd text stored within a TIFF file (eg produced by Microsoft Document Imaging) as invisible "searchable" text within the PDF.
  • Added option that preserves the margins (no matter how large they might be) around WMF and EMF meta images.
  • Added option that determines the size of an EMF meta file by using the embedded reference device bounds.
  • Added option that converts a meta image file into a native PDF representation (does not render into an image but converts meta image commands directly into equivalent native PDF graphic and text functions) and supports a number of text Unicode code pages - CP874 (Thai), CP1250 (Latin2), CP1251 (Cyrillic), CP1252 (Latin1), CP1253 (Greek), CP1254 (Turkish), CP1255 (Hebrew), CP1256 (Arabic), CP127 (Baltic).
  • Added option (for non-native, ie bitmap rendered, meta image conversion) that allows vertical scaling during the meta file render process.
  • Added option (for non-native, ie bitmap rendered, meta image conversion) that forces the bitmap rendering of a meta image file to use a specified font quality setting.
  • Added option (for native meta image conversion) that ensures that the native PDF rendering of a meta image centers the actual rendered content on the page.
  • Added option (for native meta image conversion) which reduces the font size of text until it fits within the defined bounding rectangle.
  • Added option (for native meta image conversion) that allows the specification of a default font when a font cannot be matched from the meta image file.
  • Added option (for native meta image conversion) that will embed font data so that a PDF can be viewed correctly on a system which does not have the required font available.
  • Added option (for native meta image conversion) that translates basic Arabic text from codepage CP1256 into contextual Arabic (initial, medial, final and isolated forms).
  • Added option (for native meta image conversion) that applies font scaling to the default native PDF rendering of text for fonts that cannot be matched to better approximate the size of the un-matched font.
  • Updated support for JPEG images which now require less memory when creating a PDF document.
  • Updated support for TIFF images with different horizontal and vertical DPI settings (eg normal mode faxes) when using the actual image DPI.
  • Change so that default producer value now set to combat problem if not set and using produced PDF with other applications (you can change this default value to any text you like).
  • Change to restrict user actions (ie Edit, EditExtra, Copy, Print) so that the owner password must be specified, otherwise a user can perform any action.
  • Fixed outline (bookmark) style of capitalise which was not forcing subsequent letters of a word to lower case after the initial capital.
  • Fixed full screen option which now always works (previously having an outline active stopped this).

v1.51 November 2006
  • Fixed bug in TIFF library code when loading in a minority of TIFF files that caused the application to crash.
  • Fixed bug for standard WMF/EMF files which would get the image dimensions wrong on occasion. NB Aldus placeable WMF files were not affected.
  • Fixed incorrect bookmark name when a WMF file was used.
  • All images types (excluding JPEG) now require less memory when creating a PDF document.
  • PDF creation has been speeded up (actual speed increase depends on format and size of images used).

v1.5 May 2006
  • Added multi-image TIFF and animated GIF image support.
  • Added EMF and WMF meta format image support.
  • Extended image stamp support so that if the image stamp is larger than the image then it is scaled down to fit.
  • Changed so that by default a user only has read access to the PDF, if the user is allowed to edit, copy or print these must now be explicitly specified.
  • Increased border maximum size from 100 to 500 to allow for larger image stamps being embedded within the border.

v1.4 March 2006
  • Added Border Left/Right/Top/Bottom option that allows a colored border to be set between the image and the edge of the PDF page.
  • Added TIFF image support.

v1.3 December 2005
  • Added Stamp URL option that specifies the URL that the Image Stamp will open in the default browser when it is clicked on.
  • Added Slide Show option that ensures that a PDF is displayed full screen with a chosen screen transition (17 available) between each page with user defined durations for both the transition and page display.
  • Added GIF, BMP, PCX and TGA image support.
  • Fixed a minor bug that sometimes displayed the wrong tab after making a PDF.
  • Fixed bug that gave blank outline (bookmark) names when image filenames specified had no filepath (ie in current directory).

v1.2 November 2005
  • Added Create Individual PDFs option that forces the creation of a separate PDF for each image (instead of all images being in one PDF).
  • Improved error message reporting when a PDF fails to be created.

v1.1 November 2005
  • Added Image Stamp option that allows an image (eg a logo) to be stamped at the specified location on each page of the output PDF document.

v1.0 August 2005
  • Initial Release
