GlyphPDF v1.2.1 — Startup Crash Fix

Release date: 2026-06-15
Type: Critical patch (all v1.0.x and v1.2.0 users affected — upgrade required)

Summary

v1.2.1 fixes a startup crash that affects every install of v1.0.0, v1.0.1, and v1.2.0
on machines where the MSYS2 ucrt64 podofo package is installed alongside the vendored
podofo 1.1.0 used to build GlyphPDF.

Bug Fixed

BUG-1 — CRITICAL: GlyphPDF crashes on startup with "Entry Point Not Found"

Symptom: GlyphPDF.exe - Entry Point Not Found dialog on every launch:

The procedure entry point _ZN6PoDoFo10PdfContentC1Ev could not be located
in the dynamic link library

Root cause: packaging/deploy.ps1 uses an objdump dependency-closure loop to
bundle MinGW DLLs. The loop found libpodofo.dll imported by GlyphPDF.exe and
copied it from C:\msys64\ucrt64\bin (podofo 0.10.4). However, GlyphPDF.exe
was linked against the vendored podofo 1.1.0 from third_party/podofo/install/.
The two versions are ABI-incompatible: PoDoFo::PdfContent::PdfContent() is not
exported by 0.10.4, causing the entry-point crash on load.

Fix: deploy.ps1 now explicitly stages third_party/podofo/install/bin/libpodofo.dll
(1.1.0) before the objdump closure runs. The closure's already-present guard then skips
the ucrt64 copy. If the vendored directory is absent (builds that use the MSYS2 0.10.4
path), the closure correctly picks up the matching DLL as before.

Included From v1.2.0

All five security fixes from v1.2.0 are included — see
