Changelog for
libqpdf21-8.0.0-3.1.x86_64.rpm :
Mon Feb 26 13:00:00 2018 avindraAATTopensuse.org
- Update to version 8.0.0
* Fix: QPDFObjectHandle::getUTF8Val now properly treats
non-Unicode strings as encoded with PDF Doc Encoding.
* Fix: Improvements to handling of objects in PDF files that are
not of the expected type. In most cases, qpdf will be able to
warn for such cases rather than fail with an exception. Previous
versions of qpdf would sometimes fail with errors such as
“operation for dictionary object attempted on object of wrong
type”. This situation should be mostly or entirely eliminated now.
* CLI: option --linearize-pass1=file has been added for debugging
linearization code.
* CLI: option --coalesce-contents can be used to combine content
streams of a page whose contents are an array of streams into
a single stream.
* API: Add function qpdf_check_pdf to C API. It does basic checking
that is a subset of what qpdf --check performs.
* API: Major enhancements to lexical layer of qpdf. Improved
ability to handle erroneous files. Programs can now handle
whitespace, comments, and inline images as tokens. See
ChangeLog for more detail.
* API: New API for working with PDF content streams at a lexical
level. The new class QPDFObjectHandle::TokenFilter allows the
developer to provide token handlers. Token filters can be used
with several different methods in QPDFObjectHandle as well as
with a lower-level interface. See comments in QPDFObjectHandle.hh
as well as the new examples examples/pdf-filter-tokens.cc and
examples/pdf-count-strings.cc for details.

- Update to version 7.1.1
* Fix one linearization bug affecting files whose first /ID
component is not 16 bytes long
* Fix some build issues
- Add signature and keyring
Wed Jan 24 13:00:00 2018 avindraAATTopensuse.org
- Update to version 7.1.0
* Allow raw encryption key to be specified in libary and command
line with the QPDF::setPasswordIsHexKey method and
- -password-is-hex-key option. Allow encryption key to be displayed
with --show-encryption-key option. See
https://blog.didierstevens.com/2017/12/28/cracking-encrypted-pdfs-part-3/
for a discussion of using this for cracking encrypted PDFs. I hope
that a future release of qpdf will include some additional
recovery options that may also make use of this capability.
* Fix lexical error: the PDF specification allows floating point
numbers to end with \".\"
* Fix link order in the build to avoid conflicts when building
from source while an older version of qpdf is installed
* Add support for TIFF predictor for LZW and Flate streams. Now
* Clarify documentation around options that control parsing but
not output creation. Two options: --suppress-recovery and
- -ignore-xref-streams, were documented in the \"Advanced
Transformation Options\" section of the manual and --help output
even though they are not related to output. These are now
described in a separate section called \"Advanced Parsing Options.\"
* Implement remaining PNG filters for decode. Prior versions could
decode only the \"up\" filter. Now all PNG filters (sub, up,
average, Paeth, optimal) are supported for decoding.
The implementation of the remaining PNG filters changed the
interface to the private Pl_PNGFilter class, but this class\'s
header file is not in the installation, and there is no public
interface to the class. Within the library, the class is never
allocated on the stack; it is only ever dynamically allocated. As
such, this does not actually break binary compatibility of the
library. all predictor functions are supported
- cleanup with spec-cleaner
Wed Sep 20 14:00:00 2017 idonmezAATTsuse.com
- Update to version 7.0.0
* License is now Apache-2.0
* Add new libjpeg8-devel dependency
* Improve the error message that is issued when QPDFWriter
encounters a stream that can\'t be decoded. In particular, mention
that the stream will be copied without filtering to avoid data
loss.
* Add new methods to the C API to correspond to new additions to
QPDFWriter:
- qpdf_set_compress_streams
- qpdf_set_decode_level
- qpdf_set_preserve_unreferenced_objects
- qpdf_set_newline_before_endstream
* Add support for writing PCLm files
* QPDF now supports reading and writing streams encoded with
JPEG or RunLength encoding. Library API enhancements and
command-line options have been added to control this
behavior. See command-line options --compress-streams
and --decode-level and methods QPDFWriter::setCompressStreams
and QPDFWriter::setDecodeLevel.
* Page rotation is now supported and accessible from both the
library and the command line.
* Fixes CVE-2017-12595 bsc#1055960, CVE-2017-9208 bsc#1040311
