What's Changed

New tools

  • Annotate (pictures, palette): arrows, boxes, highlights, freehand lines, text and numbered markers, drawn as you see them, in the picture's own colours (also CMYK and greyscale), with right-to-left and complex scripts shaped properly.
  • Crop video (video back face): remove black bars found automatically, or crop to 16:9, 9:16, 4:3, 1:1 or 21:9. HDR and 10-bit sources stay HDR and 10-bit.
  • Pages per sheet (PDF, palette): 2, 4, 6, 8 or 9 pages on each sheet, on A4, Letter, A3 or the first page's size, with margins, gaps, order and thin borders. Pages stay vector, so text stays text.
  • Copy to folder / Move to folder (back faces): send files to a folder you choose, as they are.
  • Pixelate / blur: a Black box style for each area.
  • Pictures → 3D relief: GLB, glTF, STL, OBJ, 3MF and PLY for printing or viewing.

Translation and captions (local AI)

  • Translate documents, e-books and SRT / WebVTT subtitles into 12 languages with a local model (Ollama). Nothing leaves the PC; timings of subtitles stay as they are.
  • Runs a model drops are asked for again, in order, and a model can be deleted from the model window.
  • Captions: SRT subtitles from a video or a recording, with Whisper.

Print work: CMYK

  • CMYK pictures (PSD, TIFF, JPG) → PDF stay CMYK, with their ICC profile. A CMYK JPEG → PDF no longer fails.
  • CMYK Illustrator and PDF files → JPG or TIFF keep their CMYK ink values, through Ghostscript (Settings → Engines). Without it the result is RGB and says why.

Settings

  • Settings → Fields: turn off fields you don't work in (CAD, 3D models, maps, fonts, games, design, science, video and audio production, old formats). Their formats leave the donut and the lists; a file you drop still offers its own field's formats. A new install starts with only Developer on.
  • Size limits: pictures as a range in KB or MB, videos in MB or as a percentage.
  • Edit pictures: width × height in px, cm, mm or inches. Crop: a perspective mode that straightens a tilted picture.
  • Merge: sort files by name or date first. The sidebar collapses to icons.
  • Delete and remove buttons turn red on hover.

Formats

  • New: Krita (.kra), Minecraft packs, add-ons, worlds and templates, Modrinth modpacks (.mrpack, in the Games field), Dart and HiveQL as text, C / C++ / C# source, Apple Voice Memos (.qta), Bink video (.bik), FreeMASTER oscilloscope text → CSV, standalone SVG text dropped from a browser.
  • Animated GIF, WebP, APNG and MNG → JPEG XL stay animated.
  • Languages: Italian, Indonesian and Vietnamese (by @dinhkarate).

Command line

  • filee engines lists, installs and removes the optional engines; formats and presets take --json.

Fixes

  • OCR to PDF failed with the Tesseract that Ubuntu 20.04 / 22.04 install (4.x).
  • DOCX → PDF could wait until its time limit when LibreOffice didn't exit.
  • Removing an engine in use no longer leaves it half deleted; interrupted downloads leave no partial files.
  • PDF → Word keeps ruled tables whose text runs past a cell, table-of-contents leaders and line spacing.
  • macOS: the donut opens and flips while another app holds Secure Input; the donut window class is restored.
  • Windows on ARM: FILEE_RENDERING=gpu, vulkan or wgl to try the GPU on Snapdragon PCs.
  • The installer shows the new rounded logo, and its "What's new" pictures as still images.
