Changelog for perl-PDF-API2-2.033-lp150.1.2.noarch.rpm :

* Wed Jul 12 2017 cooloAATTsuse.com- updated to 2.033 see /usr/share/doc/packages/perl-PDF-API2/Changes 2.033 2017-07-06 - [RT #122371] Remove a couple of improperly-placed weaken statements (reported by Phil Perry). - [RT #122372] Fix weakening when a page is added to the end of a multiple page document (reported by Phil Perry). - Fix Bank Gothic core font (reported by Phil Perry).
* Mon Jul 03 2017 cooloAATTsuse.com- updated to 2.032 see /usr/share/doc/packages/perl-PDF-API2/Changes 2.032 2017-07-02 - PDF::API2 has many circular references, and the end() method doesn\'t clear them all, so memory is leaked. This release uses Scalar::Util\'s weaken() function to improve garbage collection. A significant number of circular references have been weakened, though many likely still remain. - [RT #120756] Eliminate a warning for an ambiguous call to CORE::open (first reported by Abdelbaki Brahmia). - $text->text_justified() and $text->text_fill_justified() now adjust the space between words rather than stretching individual characters in order to get the text to fit. - [RT #120397] Indirect references and indirect objects can have comments embedded in their whitespace, and their object number and generation may be split across multiple lines, which may not all be buffered (reported by SPROUT). - [RT #120450] Fix PDF::API2->open($filename)->stringify() (reported by SPROUT). - Fix an off-by-one error when calculating text width while charspace is non-zero. - [RT #120048] Fix PDF::API2->synfont() (broken in 2.029, fixed by Vadim Repin) and add basic testing.
* Mon Feb 13 2017 cooloAATTsuse.com- updated to 2.031 see /usr/share/doc/packages/perl-PDF-API2/Changes 2.031 2017-01-26 - Fix use of cache files when reading streams: temp files will now be used any time a stream is larger than 16MB (by default). Formerly, due to a bug, they would only be created when a 4kB chunk of a stream increased to 16kB or more after being decompressed. - Numbers, booleans, and null values can now be read from object streams. - Update to [RT #113290]: Objects inside a large object stream are now read without loading the entire object stream into memory. - DEPRECATION: The low-level new_api methods have been deprecated in favor of calling new directly. If your code uses new_api($api2, ...), replace it with new($api2->{\'pdf\'}, ...). - [RT #118352] Don\'t crash when adding an annotation to a page that has an existing annotations array stored as an indirect object (reported by Johan Vromans). - [RT #118717] Die with an informative error if a file can\'t be opened during open() or saveas() (reported by Johan Vromans).

The old names will continue to work, but are now undocumented (patch by Phil Perry). - Add -mils and -color as options for barcodes. Reset linedash so that barcodes are always solid lines (patch by Erelen). - [RT #98549] Rename meterlimit to miterlimit (patch by Phil Perry). - [RT #98534] Rename hspace to hscale (patch by Phil Perry). - Fixed an infinite loop when RunLengthDecode is used for output. - [RT #65582] Fix embedding of OpenType fonts (fix by Simon Cozens). - [RT #67767] Allow an empty page to be imported into a PDF using importPageIntoForm (reported by Antti Lankila). - [RT #66341] Various fixes for ASCII85Decode and LZWDecode.

The minimum supported version is now Perl 5.8.5, and there is a .perl-version file to facilitate testing using plenv.
* Sun Sep 20 2015 cooloAATTsuse.com- updated to 2.024 see /usr/share/doc/packages/perl-PDF-API2/Changes 2.024 2015-09-18 - [RT #104133] Include all bounding boxes when importing a page (patch by Don Huettl of Grant Street Group). - [RT #104133] When retrieving bounding boxes for a page, fall back according to the defaults listed in the PDF spec (patch by Don Huettl of Grant Street Group). - Barcodes now take an optional -caption argument that will be printed beneath the barcode. This can replace or be used in conjunction with the text representation of the barcode (requested by Gareth Tunley). - [RT #105581] Calls to width() in BaseFont are now significantly faster (patch by Dmitri Tikhonov).
* Tue Apr 14 2015 cooloAATTsuse.com- updated to 2.023 see /usr/share/doc/packages/perl-PDF-API2/Changes 2.023 2014-09-12 - The fix for [RT #69503] broke a previously-working case where a page object could be passed (and was expected). The -firstpage option now accepts a page object or a page number. Thanks to Marco Pessotto for the bug report and test.
* Fri Jul 25 2014 cooloAATTsuse.com- updated to 2.022 - Added $pdf->version() get/set method. When opening an existing PDF, the existing version number will now be retained. - Renamed the following in PDF::API2: - importpage to import_page - openScalar to open_scalar The old names are deprecated. - [RT #69503] Fix the -firstpage option to $pdf->preferences() so that it doesn\'t always lead to a crash (reported by Dietrich Streifert). - [RT #47974] Accept malformed xref subsections (with a warning) that have extraneous spaces on the first line (reported by Abhinav Kaushik). - [RT #94505] For Code128 barcodes, the initial character set is now optional (defaults to B or C depending on the content to be encoded). The initial character set can be passed as a capital letter, and the program will die if an invalid character set is requested (requested by Andrea Nall). - Interleaved 2 of 5 barcodes now prepend a zero when an odd number of digits is specified, which is standard behavior. Previously, a zero was appended instead. - $page->rotate(0) now sets rotation to 0 degrees rather than deleting an existing page rotation command. Page rotation is inherited, so this is necessary to undo any inherited page rotation. - Fix: Attempts to use EAN-128 barcodes resulted in an error. - Add a more informative error when text() is called without first setting a font(), and when font() is called without including a font size.- remove work around only applied on 11.3 and 11.4
* Mon Mar 17 2014 cooloAATTsuse.com- updated to 2.021 - Fixed numerous bugs in the string parsing code, including the one reported in [RT #63918] by Frank Doepper. - [RT #41049] Rewrote literal string parsing to prevent a stack overflow due to an inefficient regex (reported by Sergei Fetisov). - [RT #91822] Fix compression of GIF images to ensure that output codes don\'t exceed 12 bits (reported by Vadim Repin). - The RunLengthDecode filter didn\'t actually work. Its code has been rewritten and now passes basic encoding and decoding tests. - Fix Code128 barcode switching from Code C to Code B in certain cases (reported by Doru Petrescu).
* Thu Aug 01 2013 chrisAATTcomputersalat.de- update to 2.020
* Give a more informative error message when a PDF file using a cross-reference stream is encountered. The Known Issues section of the documentation includes pointers on how to add support in case someone else can get to this before I do.
* Text using TrueType fonts is now searchable again. In version 0.61, an undocumented -unicodemap option was added to nearly all of the font resource methods, which only included a ToUnicode CMap if it was set (and it\'s required in order for PDF readers to be able to identify individual characters if BaseEncoding isn\'t present, which it isn\'t for TrueType fonts). I\'ve left the -unicodemap option in place, and it\'s still undocumented (except here), but it\'s now on by default. Call $pdf->ttfont($fontfile, -unicodemap => 0) if you want to disable it for performance or file size reasons.
* Add a note to the stringify method\'s documentation saying that it\'s a destructive operation.
* The various filter types have their own classes in the PDF::API2::Basic::PDF::Filter namespace now, rather than having all of the packages in Filter.pm.
* To facilitate testing and ensure that identically-generated PDFs have identical output in Perl 5.17.5 or later, PDF dictionary keys are now sorted during output.
* Thu Jun 07 2012 chrisAATTcomputersalat.de- fix License (spdx.org)
* LGPL-2.1+- fix description
* Tue Sep 06 2011 jwAATTsuse.com- workround broken Unicode::UCD in 11.4 and 11.3: We providing our own UnicodeData.txt to make t/00-all-usable.t happy.
* Thu Mar 31 2011 cooloAATTnovell.com- update to 2.019 - [RT #66167] Fix a typo in the require statement for code128 barcodes (TC Kuan). - Numerous modules are now only loaded when they\'re needed, which should help speed up the load time and reduce the memory footprint. - Test coverage is up to about 45% of the codebase. - The tests in 2.017 exposed a floating point issue where some computers give more trailing zeros than others. It doesn\'t affect the output, but it does break the tests on those computers, since the PDFs are slightly different. This version modifies the float() method to remove trailing zeros, which should fix the test breakage and give consistent PDFs. - The DejaVu fonts have been removed from the distribution, since they were only used by one example script. If you need them for your project, you can download them from http://dejavu-fonts.org
