All six packages share this version. Optional font and timestamp packages
are installed separately. Packages and symbols are attached below.

What's new

• A concise, consumer-focused NuGet README with install commands, text extraction,
  PNG rendering, and bundled-font examples replaces the editor-focused README.
• NuGet links now use absolute URLs: no broken relative screenshot or documentation
  paths. Package metadata includes the FreeDF homepage, source repository,
  version-specific release notes, and MIT license.
• Successful publication now creates a GitHub Release with generated change notes,
  installation instructions, and all six packages plus symbol packages attached.
• Release checks inspect every packed README and its licensing metadata, and run
  the documented rendering examples in an installed-package consumer.
• The Unicode license uses an explicit archive path so licensing metadata and
  files remain consistent on Windows and Linux.

Compatibility

This release changes package documentation, metadata, and release automation;
it does not change library APIs or rendering behavior from preview.3.
All six packages target .NET 10 and use version 0.1.0-preview.5.
Use preview.3 or later; preview.2 has a fallback-font packaging defect.
Preview APIs and output may change in future versions. Full PDF 2.0 parity
is not claimed; validate your own PDF corpus before upgrading.

Licensing

FreeDF code is MIT licensed, copyright (c) 2026-Present David Pine. Included
third-party font and data licenses remain in effect and ship with the packages.

Preview: APIs and output may change. Test your PDF corpus before upgrading; full PDF 2.0 parity is not claimed.

Full Changelog: v0.1.0-preview.3...v0.1.0-preview.5

FreeDF 0.1.0-preview.3

FreeDF 0.1.0-preview.3

The first verified preview of all six .NET 10 libraries for PDF parsing,
editing, rendering, text extraction, optional fallback fonts, and HTTP timestamping.

dotnet add package PortableDocument.Render --version 0.1.0-preview.3

Highlights

• Publish packages and symbols using NuGet trusted publishing, without a stored API key.
• Correct the fallback-font content paths from preview.2.
• Bound oversized JBIG2 text regions and avoid quadratic raster edge sorting.
• Use host-independent bundled-font golden tests and cross-platform fuzz seeds.
• Gate publication on the full test suite and an isolated installed-package consumer.

Compatibility and licensing

Preview APIs and output may change. Pin package versions and validate your PDF corpus.
Full PDF 2.0 parity is not claimed. Use preview.3 or later; preview.2 has a
fallback-font packaging defect.
