Release I Hate PDFs v0.4 · akkolli/ihatepdfs

What's new!

I Hate PDFs v0.4 keeps the app focused on fast, local PDF reading and annotation.

Build 7 keeps the public v0.4 version and fixes the reader workflow issues found after the first v0.4 upload:

Comment and reply rows now show a visible Reply button.
Escape exits active annotation modes, including highlighter and free-text placement.
The macOS full-screen shortcut works after focus moves to window chrome.
Annotation add/delete operations can be undone and redone.
Plain highlights can be deleted from the Highlights sidebar, the selected annotation can be deleted from the Annotate menu, and Delete/Backspace works when the PDF reader has focus.

Original v0.4 highlights:

Focused reading startup: opened PDFs begin in a clean single-pane reader with sidebars hidden and the document fit to the available width.
Smaller app surface: experimental Fill & Sign, form-field navigation, and PDF signing work were removed from this release line.
Recent PDFs: reopen documents from the empty window or File > Open Recent.
Better annotation workflow: standalone highlights, selected-text comments, underline comments, free-text notes, replies, and Return-to-save comment editing.
Review tools: comments, highlights, and bookmarks remain available from sidebars when needed instead of crowding the reading view.
Release polish: v0.4 uses the lightweight native SwiftUI/AppKit/PDFKit stack and keeps direct-download archives under the size budget.

I Hate PDFs works with local user-selected PDFs. It does not require an account, collect analytics, or upload documents.
