  • New Tools → Combine Archives…, for reassembling a TPB that was released split
    across several files. Select two or more open archives, order them (defaulting
    to alphabetical by filename, with up/down reordering and Sort A–Z / Reverse),
    and they're joined into one new CBZ: every source's pages in order, renumbered
    into a single continuous sequence that follows the first book's own naming
    convention, plus the first book's ComicInfo.xml. The joined book is then opened
    and selected in the editor with its Page Count corrected and any trailing
    "(Part 1)"-style marker trimmed off Title/Series — left unsaved and visible, so
    the change can be reviewed or reverted rather than applied silently. Also
    available as an optional "Combine…" toolbar button.
  • New Tools → Trim Branding Footers…, which finds and cuts the strip some
    sources graft onto the bottom of pages (a solid bar carrying a site name).
    It is self-calibrating — the bar's height is measured from the book itself,
    so nothing needs configuring per source and no reference images are stored —
    and every detected band is shown as an actual image strip in the dialog, so
    what would be cut can be checked before anything is written. Only the pages
    you confirm are re-encoded; every other page is copied through byte-for-byte,
    and the result is always written to a new file. Also available as an optional
    "Trim Footers…" toolbar button.
  • These are the first features that write page images, which the project's
    founding constraint previously ruled out entirely. The constraint is now
    narrower rather than gone: both only ever write a new archive and leave
    every source file untouched on disk. Combining additionally copies page bytes
    verbatim without decoding them; footer trimming is the one path that genuinely
    re-encodes, and only for the pages actually being cropped.
