Log Message:
Update to 8.3.0
Changelog:
2019-01-07 Jay Berkenbilt <ejb@ql.org>
* 8.3.0: release
* Add sample completion files in completions. These can be used by
packagers to install on the system wherever bash and zsh keep
their vendor-supplied completions.
* Add configure flag --enable-check-autofiles, which is on by
default. Packagers whose packaging systems automatically refresh
autoconf or libtool files should pass --disable-check-autofiles to
./configure to suppress warnings about automatically generated
files being outdated.
2019-01-06 Jay Berkenbilt <ejb@ql.org>
* Remove the restriction in most cases that the source QPDF used
in a copyForeignObject call has to stick around until the
destination QPDF is written. The exceptional case is when the
source stream gets is data using a
QPDFObjectHandle::StreamDataProvider. For a more in-depth
discussion, see comments around copyForeignObject in QPDF.hh.
Fixes #219.

* When generating appearances, if the font uses one of the
standard, built-in encodings, restrict the character set to that
rather than just to ASCII. This will allow most appearances to
contain characters from the ISO-Latin-1 range plus a few
additional characters.
* Add methods QUtil::utf8_to_win_ansi and
QUtil::utf8_to_mac_roman.
* Add method QUtil::utf8_to_utf16.
2019-01-04 Jay Berkenbilt <ejb@ql.org>
* Add new option --optimize-images, which recompresses every image
using DCT (JPEG) compression as long as the image is not already
compressed with lossy compression and recompressing the image
reduces its size. The additional options --oi-min-width,
--oi-min-height, and --oi-min-area prevent recompression of images
whose width, height, or pixel area (width * height) are below a
specified threshold.
* Add new option --collate. When specified, the semantics of
--pages change from concatenation to collation. See the manual for
a more detailed discussion. Fixes #259.
* Add new method QPDFWriter::getFinalVersion, which returns the
PDF version that will ultimately be written to the final file. See
comments in QPDFWriter.hh for some restrictions on its use. Fixes
#266.
* When unexpected errors are found while checking linearization
data, print an error message instead of calling assert, which
cause the program to crash. Fixes #209, #231.
* Detect and recover from dangling references. If a PDF file
contained an indirect reference to a non-existent object (which is
valid), when adding a new object to the file, it was possible for
the new object to take the object ID of the dangling reference,
thereby causing the dangling reference to point to the new object.
This case is now prevented. Fixes #240.
2019-01-03 Jay Berkenbilt <ejb@ql.org>
* Add --generate-appearances flag to the qpdf command-line tool to
trigger generation of appearance streams.
* Fix behavior of form field value setting to handle the following
cases:
- Strings are always written as UTF-16
- Check boxes and radio buttons are handled properly with
synchronization of values and appearance states
* Define constants in qpdf/Constants.h for interpretation of
annotation and form field flags
* Add QPDFAnnotationObjectHelper::getFlags
* Add many new methods to QPDFFormFieldObjectHelper for querying
flags and field types
* Add new methods for appearance stream generation. See comments
in QPDFFormFieldObjectHelper.hh for generateAppearance() for a
description of limitations.
- QPDFAcroFormDocumentHelper::generateAppearancesIfNeeded
- QPDFFormFieldObjectHelper::generateAppearance
* Bug fix: when writing form field values, always write string
values encoded as UTF-16.
* Add method QUtil::utf8_to_ascii, which returns an ASCII string
for a UTF-8 string, replacing out-of-range characters with a
specified substitute.
2019-01-02 Jay Berkenbilt <ejb@ql.org>
* Add method QPDFObjectHandle::getResourceNames that returns a set
of strings representing all second-level keys in a dictionary
(i.e. all keys of all direct dictionary members).
2018-12-31 Jay Berkenbilt <ejb@ql.org>
* Add --flatten-annotations flag to the qpdf command-line tool for
annotation flattening.
* Add methods for flattening form fields and annotations:
- QPDFPageDocumentHelper::flattenAnnotations - integrate
annotation appearance streams into page contents with special
handling for form fields: if appearance streams are up to date
(/NeedAppearances is false in /AcroForm), the /AcroForm key of
the document catalog is removed. Otherwise, a warning is
issued, and form fields are ignored. Non-form-field
annotations are always flattened if an appearance stream can
be found.
- QPDFAnnotationObjectHelper::getPageContentForAppearance -
generate the content stream fragment to render an appearance
stream in a page's content stream as a form xobject. Called by
flattenAnnotations.
* Add method QPDFObjectHandle::mergeResources(), which merges
resource dictionaries. See detailed description in
QPDFObjectHandle.hh.
* Add QPDFObjectHandle::Matrix, similar to
QPDFObjectHandle::Rectangle, as a convenience class for
six-element arrays that are used as matrices.
2018-12-23 Jay Berkenbilt <ejb@ql.org>
* When specifying @arg on the command line, if the file "arg" does
not exist, just treat this is a normal argument. This makes it
easier to deal with files whose names start with the @ character.
Fixes #265.
* Tweak completion so it works with zsh as well using
bashcompinit.
2018-12-22 Jay Berkenbilt <ejb@ql.org>
* Add new options --json, --json-key, and --json-object to
generate a json representation of the PDF file. This is described
in more depth in the manual. You can also run qpdf --json-help to
get a description of the json format.
2018-12-21 Jay Berkenbilt <ejb@ql.org>
* Allow --show-object=trailer for showing the document trailer.
* You can now use eval $(qpdf --completion-bash) to enable bash
completion for qpdf. It's not perfect, but it works pretty well.
2018-12-19 Jay Berkenbilt <ejb@ql.org>
* When splitting pages using --split-pages, the outlines
dictionary and some supporting metadata are copied into the split
files. The result is that all bookmarks from the original file
appear, and those that point to pages that are preserved work
while those that point to pages that are not preserved don't do
anything. This is an interim step toward proper support for
bookmark preservation in split files.
* Add QPDFOutlineDocumentHelper and QPDFOutlineObjectHelper for
handling outlines (bookmarks) including bidirectionally mapping
between bookmarks and pages. Initially there is no support for
modifying the outlines hierarchy.
2018-12-18 Jay Berkenbilt <ejb@ql.org>
* New method QPDFObjectHandle::getJSON() returns a JSON object
with a partial representation of the object. See
QPDFObjectHandle.hh for a detailed description.
* Add a simple JSON serializer. This is not a complete or
general-purpose JSON library. It allows assembly and serialization
of JSON structures with some restrictions, which are described in
the header file.
* Add QPDFNameTreeObjectHelper class. This class provides useful
methods for dealing with name trees, which are discussed in
section 7.9.6 of the PDF spec (ISO-32000).
* Preserve page labels when merging and splitting files. Prior
versions of qpdf simply preserved the page label information from
the first file, which usually wouldn't make any sense in the
merged file. Now any page that had a page number in any original
file will have the same page number after merging or splitting.
* Add QPDFPageLabelDocumentHelper class. This is a document helper
class that provides useful methods for dealing with page labels.
It abstracts the fact that they are stored as number trees and
deals with interpolating intermediate values that are not in the
tree. It also has helper functions used by the qpdf command line
tool to preserve page labels when merging and splitting files.
* Add QPDFNumberTreeObjectHelper class. This class provides useful
methods for dealing with number trees, which are discussed in
section 7.9.7 of the PDF spec (ISO-32000). Page label dictionaries
are represented as number trees.
* New method QPDFObjectHandle::wrapInArray returns the object
itself if it is an array. Otherwise, it returns an array
containing the object. This is useful for dealing with PDF data
that is sometimes expressed as a single element and sometimes
expressed as an array, which is a somewhat common PDF idiom.
2018-10-11 Jay Berkenbilt <ejb@ql.org>
* Files generated by autogen.sh are now committed so that it is
possible to build on platforms without autoconf directly from a
clean checkout of the repository. The configure script detects if
the files are out of date when it also determines that the tools
are present to regenerate them.
* Add build in Azure Pipelines, now that it is free for open
source projects.
