0.8.4

Built on @docmentis/udoc-wasm 0.8.6.

udoc-viewer and udoc-editor

Added

• enableAnnotation: false keeps the user from annotating a PDF, and
  enableFormFilling: false from filling in its form, where the license
  allows both: the Annotate tab is gone, comments and annotations are there to
  read, and a press on a form field selects as on the page.
  addPageAnnotation and the rest still change the annotations.
• --udoc-canvas-guide-background sets the fill of the guide, the ruler or a
  spreadsheet's row and column headers, and
  --udoc-canvas-scrollbar-background that of the scrollbars beside a page.

Changed

• The guide and the scrollbars beside a page take the toolbar's color,
  --udoc-color-surface-container, by default, where they took the canvas's,
  so --udoc-canvas-background no longer recolors them.
• A scrollbar's thumb keeps 2px clear of its track's ends, as it does of its
  sides, so it no longer touches the view's edge or the corner where the two
  scrollbars meet.
• In a PDF or a presentation, the page count beside the page number, the
  pages it accepts and the thumbnails cover every page from the open, where
  they grew as pages composed ahead, and pageCount is the document's total.
• A presentation opens one slide at a time, in the "spread" scroll mode,
  where it opened scrolling continuously. The scrollMode option and
  setScrollMode set the scroll mode every document opens in, null
  restoring each doc type's own, and the view settings' Scroll section picks
  one for the open document alone, where its pick held for every document
  opened after.
• document:edited carries pageCount, the document's page count, for
  composedPageCount, and udoc-editor's pageActions and pageInserts take
  a pageCount option for composedPageCount.

Fixed

• In a PDF or a presentation, following a link, an outline item or a page
  number to a page not composed yet lands at once, where the viewer froze
  until every page before it had composed. Composing ahead asks for only the
  pages it adds, so its steps no longer slow down as a long document fills in.
• In a PDF whose text is set in a Type 3 font, as bitmap text often is, a
  selection highlights the lines it covers and a drag from between two lines
  selects them, where its lines had no height to highlight or to pick.
• A PDF page drawn from thousands of small pieces of text scrolls smoothly
  with the pointer resting on it, where each frame stalled on finding the text
  under the pointer.
• A link still being followed when the viewer is destroyed no longer logs
  "following a link failed".

udoc-demo

Added

• ?sample= opens the demo on a sample, by its file's name
  (?sample=james-webb-space-telescope.pptx), and the address keeps it in
  step as the sample changes.
• Co-edit shows it is preparing while it loads the whole document into the
  collaboration service both editors share, which takes longer than opening
  it in View or Edit.
• The Options dialog turns annotating and form filling off, under Features
  with copy, and groups the toolbar and view items under UI.

Changed

• Switching the mode or the document adds an entry to the browser's history,
  so Back returns to the one before.

0.8.3

Built on @docmentis/udoc-wasm 0.8.5.

udoc-viewer and udoc-editor

Fixed

• A document opened where another was open draws at once, where it stayed
  blank until the view changed size.
• A document opened where another was open scrolls whole, where a scroll
  redrew only the strip it brought into view and left the rest as it was.

udoc-demo

Fixed

• The docMentis logo opens the site in the whole window, not inside the frame
  a page embeds the demo in.

0.8.2

Built on @docmentis/udoc-wasm 0.8.4.

All packages

Added

• A map chart shades its regions through a three-color scale, its middle color
  shown in the legend's bar as well, and labels each region with its name,
  placed as PowerPoint places it.

udoc-viewer and udoc-editor

Added

• exportToBytes("pdf") exports the document as a PDF of its laid-out pages,
  and exportPageToBytes(page, format) a page as the bytes of a PNG,
  { png: { scale } }, or an SVG, "svg", as udoc-node's do. Both fetch the
  fonts the document names first, so none is drawn in a stand-in. A
  spreadsheet can't be exported to PDF yet.

udoc-node

Added

• exportToBytes("pdf") exports the document as a PDF of its laid-out pages,
  in its own fonts, and exportPageToBytes(index, "svg") exports a page as
  SVG; both rejected before. A spreadsheet can't be exported to PDF yet.

Fixed

• openRemote with a fetch that answers in a Node Buffer gets the bytes it
  answered, where it threw, and stopped the process, on Node 21 and later.

udoc-cli

Added

• udoc render writes a page as an SVG for an --out ending in .svg, and
  udoc export <input> --out <file.pdf> exports the document as a PDF of its
  laid-out pages.

Changed

• udoc render refuses an --out that isn't a .png or a .svg, where it
  wrote a PNG whatever the name.

udoc-server

Added

• GET /documents/:id/layout/pages/:index.svg answers a page as an SVG, and
  GET /documents/:id/layout/pages.pdf the document exported as a PDF of its
  laid-out pages, 422 unsupported for a spreadsheet.

Fixed

• A request that opens a kept document, for a page image, its page count or a
  saved copy, no longer stops the server.

udoc-demo

Added

• Published to npm: a demo app showcasing udoc-viewer and udoc-editor.
• ?mode=view, edit, coedit or ai opens the demo in that mode.

0.8.1

Built on @docmentis/udoc-wasm 0.8.3.

All packages

Added

• Emoji draw in color, from a font's color glyphs; one the document's fonts
  lack, or sets in Segoe UI Emoji or Apple Color Emoji, draws in Noto Color
  Emoji.
• Saving a DOCX, PPTX or XLSX keeps its edits, by "delta", over the
  original, or "rewrite", as a new file. A delta save gave back the original
  unchanged, and a rewrite was refused.

Changed

• A web font one provider can't supply is ordered from the next at once,
  without laying every page out again first.
• A .udoc package saved by 0.8.0 from a PPTX no longer loads a slide holding
  a link that jumps to a slide by its number, and a link into another deck
  opens it a slide later.

Fixed

• An emoji with a variation selector, such as ❤️, draws instead of leaving a
  gap, and a keycap such as 1️⃣ draws its digit once, not twice.

udoc-viewer and udoc-editor

Added

• goToSheet(sheet) shows a workbook's sheet, by its 0-based index or its
  name, and resolves once it has painted; sheetCount, currentSheet and the
  currentSheet:changed event follow it, and an overlay frame's sheet says
  which sheet the frame shows.
• sheets lists a workbook's sheets, each with its name, visibility and tab
  color; sheets:changed fires as each sheet's color becomes known.

Changed

• A page is a 0-based index throughout the API: goToPage, currentPage,
  currentPage:changed, renderPage and PrintOptions.pages now count from
  0, as the annotation calls and viewport:changed already did.
• A hidden sheet has no tab, as in Excel, where only a very hidden one had
  none; and a workbook opens on the sheet it was saved showing, or its first
  visible one, rather than always its first.
• What the reader does — a sheet tab, a page turn, an edit — runs ahead of
  background work: web fonts, thumbnails, composing ahead and loading a
  workbook's other sheets, in that order. Background work waits, too, until the
  reader has paused for a moment, so scrolling, hovering or typing never lands
  behind it. A reader waits at most for the one background step already
  running, and its paint comes before the next.
• A large worksheet paints once it has loaded, without laying out every row
  first: the rows on screen are laid out for the first paint, and the rest in
  the background while the reader pauses. Issue #2's 32,863-row sheet paints
  in about 2 seconds, from about 20.
• A large worksheet no longer lays out every row again when a web font changes
  its rows' or columns' sizes, or before a jump into it.

Fixed

• A page narrower than the view, which shows centred, paints once per wheel
  step and relayout, not twice.

0.8.0

Built on @docmentis/udoc-wasm 0.8.2.

udoc-viewer

The viewer is rebuilt on the docMentis engine's new architecture: each
document renders in a worker, on one canvas, and the viewer is built on
@docmentis/udoc-ui, the document UI the docMentis packages share. Its API
changed;
API-COMPARISON.md maps every export
of 0.7 to what 0.8 offers in its place.

Added

• Form filling in PDFs, and audio and video playback.
• TSV and PSV files, opened as CSV is, and CSV files split by semicolons.
• Annotate tools: highlight, underline, strikeout, squiggly, note, text box, 14
  standard stamps, pen, and the rectangle, ellipse, line, arrow, polygon,
  polyline and cloud shapes.
• Comment replies, edits and deletion in the Comments panel.
• renderPage(page, { scale }), goToNextPage(), goToPrevPage(),
  setFullscreen() and isFullscreen.
• open's password option, for a host that holds a document's password.
• An annotation with ephemeral: true is shown but never saved or printed.
• setOverlay draws any number of overlays over the pages.
• showDeveloperButton: diagnostics in the toolbar's menu.

Changed

• UDocViewer.create(container, options) replaces UDocClient.create and
  client.createViewer; load is open, which takes a URL, a Blob or
  bytes.
• Options say what they show rather than what they hide: showToolbar: false
  for hideToolbar: true, showDownloadButton: false for
  disableDownload: true, and so on.
• Events are named for what happened, ending in ed or ing: page:change
  is currentPage:changed, download is document:downloaded, print is
  document:printed, annotation:add is annotation:inserted, and so on.
• currentPage keeps its name; pageCount counts the pages laid out so far.
• The annotation calls and events take the engine's Annotation type and find
  an annotation by its name. Their events fire for undo and redo too.
• The engine is located with wasm: { baseUrl, cdnUrl }, and falls back to
  jsDelivr by default. The worker starts from a blob, so a Content Security
  Policy needs worker-src blob:.
• locale and translations are options of create, and translations
  takes the UI's keys (Messages). The built-in languages are 0.7's
  eleven; a Traditional Chinese tag such as zh-HK now reads Traditional
  Chinese rather than Simplified.
• Supported browsers: Chrome and Edge 91, Firefox 105, Safari 16.4 and later.
• The chrome is neutral gray, and its CSS variables are renamed:
  --udoc-color-* for every color it uses, --udoc-color-primary for your
  brand color, and a fill per region such as --udoc-toolbar-background.

Removed

• ico, tga, ppm, hdr, exr and qoi images.
• The fonts panel, slide transitions and animations, and the spreadsheet's
  paged view.
• getOutline, getPageText, getPageInfo, getFontUsage, metadata,
  renderThumbnail and renderRegion.
• The document utilities: compose, splitByOutline, extractImages,
  extractFonts, parseFontInfo, compress and decompress.
• The setters for chrome the options now fix at creation, such as
  setToolbarVisible.

udoc-ui, udoc-editor, udoc-node, udoc-cli and udoc-server

The first release of each.
