@Mengqi97 Mengqi97 released this 17 Aug 09:50

Improvements

  • Adds a Refresh and reopen action to the Zotero item pane.
  • Reliably closes stale bilingual PDF readers after page-width adjustment and waits for their teardown.
  • Fixes the Zotero tab is undefined reader error and transient duplicate-tab behavior.
  • Uses Zotero's standard attachment-opening flow, with automatic fallback to the original PDF if the bilingual PDF cannot be opened.
  • Reuses the reopened reader for the first-page preview instead of creating an extra background tab.

Verification

  • JavaScript tests: 22/22 passed
  • Python tests: 5 passed, 1 conditional skip
  • Static check and package build passed
  • XPI SHA-256: 70D84F193240A5BE440A453EF0DD08D8602C453B12B901994FAB4132FF3EDAA2

v1.4.0 — Easier first-time setup

中文

  • 新增 Windows 一键安装/修复 PDF 翻译环境:自动下载并校验官方 PDFMathTranslate-next/BabelDOC 引擎,缺少 Node.js 时自动配置便携版本。
  • 普通用户不再需要克隆仓库;保留已有工作目录和自定义路径作为高级选项。
  • README 新增双语安装说明、DeepSeek API 典型处理时间(普通 8 页 PDF 约 10 分钟)和参考项目致谢。
  • 新增 GitHub 宣传图和可独立下载的轻量运行时脚本包。

首次安装外部引擎约需下载 600 MB。外部 PDFMathTranslate-next/BabelDOC 仍按其 AGPL 许可证独立运行,不包含在 MIT 插件代码中。

English

  • Adds one-click install/repair for the PDF translation environment on Windows, including verified official PDFMathTranslate-next/BabelDOC downloads and a portable Node fallback.
  • Regular users no longer need to clone the repository; existing workspaces and manual paths remain available as advanced options.
  • Expands the bilingual README with setup guidance, a practical DeepSeek timing reference (about ten minutes for an ordinary eight-page PDF), and acknowledgements.
  • Adds a GitHub social preview and a separately downloadable lightweight runtime-script bundle.

The first setup downloads about 600 MB. The external PDFMathTranslate-next/BabelDOC engine remains a separate AGPL-licensed program and is not bundled into the MIT plugin code.

Assets

  • codex-bilingual-reader.xpi — Zotero add-on
  • codex-bilingual-runtime.zip — lightweight MIT runtime scripts for manual/offline setup (does not include the external PDF engine)
  • update.json — Zotero update manifest
