  • When omitted, it will default to the new baseline alignment (vertically), combined with end alignment (horizontally)

Text

• Added support for variable fonts
  • The well-known variation axes ital, slnt, wght, wdth, and opsz are automatically set based on text weight, stretch, style, and size
  • Custom variations can be configured via the new variations parameter of the text function
  • When using a variable font with Typst, the suffixes "Variable", "Var", and "VF" should be omitted as Typst trims them to unify static and variable fonts into a single family (Minor breaking change)
• Font features
  • The text.alternates parameter now accepts an integer in addition to a boolean to select stylistic alternates other than 0 and 1
  • Parsing of tag names in text.features is now more strict (Minor breaking change)

Math

• Layout
  • Improved layout of under/over elements like underbrace
  • Slightly improved spacing around math.op elements
  • In which situations cramped styles (with tighter spacing) are applied is now fully consistent with TeX and MathML Core
  • The size parameter of the lr function now consistently applies to middle delimiters in the same way it does to outer delimiters
  • The size parameter of the lr function now resolves relatively to the height of just the inner content; it does not take the delimiters into account anymore (Minor breaking change)
  • Glyph stretching is now always relative to the base glyph rather than a potentially already scaled version (e.g. due to display sizing) (Minor breaking change)
  • Fixed left/right alignment not being applied correctly due to spacing next to alignment points
  • The binom element now uses different OpenType constants for layout; though this does not lead to visible changes with most fonts
  • The default length and stroke width of math.cancel lines is now specified in font-relative instead of absolute units
  • Fixed potential misalignment in cases function
• Text handling
  • Improved handling of multi-character symbols in math
  • Fixed that some glyphs did not stretch correctly in script sizes
  • Fraction, root, and under/over lines now respect text.stroke

Version 0.14.2 (December 12, 2025)

View changelog with links into the documentation on typst.app/docs

Security

• Updated the WebAssembly runtime used for executing plugins. The version used in Typst 0.14.0 and 0.14.1 suffers from a memory handling vulnerability. Based on our investigation, the vulnerability would be very hard to exploit in practice, but an exploit could theoretically be feasible. In any case, we recommend upgrading to Typst 0.14.2. This holds in particular for local users. In the web app, the bug is not critical as the browser offers an extra layer of protection.

  Typst 0.13.1 and below are not affected by this vulnerability.

  Technical details: The wasmi WebAssembly runtime versions used in 0.14.0 and 0.14.1 have a use-after-free memory handling bug in certain memory growth situations. Specifically, the bug occurs when the plugin tries to grow its memory, but allocating the requested amount of memory fails. Based on our investigation, the bug is hard to trigger in practice as the WebAssembly linear memory is always limited to 4GB on a technical level and modern operating systems rarely fail to serve a 4GB memory allocation request (typically not even under RAM pressure). Once the bug is triggered, it would also still be very challenging to turn it into an actual exploit. Regardless, we recommend upgrading to Typst 0.14.2 for protection against a potential exploit.

Diagnostics

• Added a hint when array.sorted fails because a pair of elements could not be compared. This hint aids with fixing bugs in user code that were surfaced by a change in internal sorting behavior in Typst 0.14.1.

PDF export

• Fixed regression where links to labelled elements would sometimes not work correctly
• Fixed bug where PDF text attributes could be written incorrectly
• Fixed crash in link handling
• Fixed crash for zero-sized pages
• Fixed crash when a table vline or hline has an out-of-bounds index
• Fixed crash in formatting of font-related PDF export errors

• Typst now supports all PDF/A standards
• PDFs can now be used as images (thanks to @LaurenzV)
• Added support for character-level justification (can significantly improve the appearance of justified text)

PDF export

PDF export was fully rewritten to use the new krilla library, fixing various bugs and enabling many improvements. Known fixes are listed below, but there will likely be other changes in how the output behaves. If you spot any regressions, please report them on GitHub. (Thanks to @LaurenzV for creating krilla!)

• Typst now produces accessible PDFs out of the box. Such documents are suitable for consumption in a wide range of circumstances. That not only includes consumption by people with permanent or temporary disabilities, but also by those with different devices or preferences.
  • Typst PDFs are now tagged by default. Tags are rich metadata that PDF viewers can use to make the document consumable in other ways than visually (e.g., through a screen reader).
  • In addition, Typst can now emit documents conforming to the PDF/UA-1 standard. (PDF/UA-2 is not yet supported, but planned.)
  • There is an increasing amount of existing and upcoming legislation requiring documents to be accessible, for instance, the European Accessibility Act and the Americans with Disabilities Act.
  • For more details on all of this, read the new Accessibility Guide.
• Typst now supports all PDF/A standards: PDF/A-1b, PDF/A-1a, PDF/A-2b, PDF/A-2u, PDF/A-2a, PDF/A-3b, PDF/A-3u, PDF/A-3a, PDF/A-4, PDF/A-4f, and PDF/A-4e. See the expanded PDF/A documentation for guidance on how to select a suitable standard.
• Typst now supports the PDF versions 1.4, 1.5, 1.6, and 2.0 in addition to PDF 1.7. See the relevant section of the PDF documentation for details.
• Added pdf.artifact function for marking content as not semantically meaningful
• Added experimental pdf.header-cell, pdf.data-cell, and pdf.table-summary functions for enhancing accessibility of documents with complex tables. These functions are guarded by the a11y-extras feature. They do not have a final interface and will be removed in the future, either through integration into table functions or through full removal.
• PDF heading bookmarks now contain the heading's numbering
• Attachments
  • Renamed pdf.embed to pdf.attach (the old name will remain as a deprecated alias until Typst 0.15)
  • The mime property of pdf.attach is now checked for syntactical correctness (Minor breaking change)
  • Fixed parsing of the data argument of pdf.attach
  • Attachments now smartly determine whether they should be compressed
• Text extraction (i.e. copy paste)
  • Now works correctly even when multiple different characters result in the same glyph
  • Spaces between words at which a natural line break occurred are now correctly retained for text extraction
  • Fixed mapping of hyphenation artifacts to Unicode text
• Images
  • CMYK images now work properly in PDF export
  • Improved export of text in SVG images with a filter
  • Improved compatibility of SVG images with Quartz rendering engine (the engine used in Apple Preview)
  • Improved handling of SVG images with high group nesting depth
• Fixed a bug with text in patterns
• Fixed gradients with transparency

HTML export

• Added support for many more built-in elements (the Model category is now fully covered)
  • The image element
  • The footnote and footnote.entry element
  • The outline and outline.entry element
  • The bibliography element
  • The smartquote element
  • The sub and super elements
  • The underline, overline, strike, and highlight elements
  • The smallcaps element
  • The lower and upper functions
• Added typed HTML API (e.g. html.div) with individually typed attributes
  • For example, to generate a video element you can now write #html.video(width: 400, src: "sunrise.mp4") instead of #html.elem("video", attrs: (width: "400", src: "sunrise.mp4")). Note how the width attribute takes an integer instead of a string.
• Added support for intra-doc link targets
• The raw element
  • Added syntax highlighting support
  • Block-level raw elements now emit both a <code> and a <pre> tag
  • The language tag of raw elements is now preserved as a data-lang attribute on the <code> tag
• The authors and keywords properties of the document function now yield corresponding HTML <meta> tags
• The html.elem function now supports custom HTML element names
• Improved encoding of html.frame
• Empty attributes are now encoded with shorthand syntax (e.g. <div hidden></div>)
• Zero-sized horizontal weak spacing (h(0pt, weak: true)) does not cause a "was ignored during HTML export" warning anymore, so it can be used to destruct surrounding spaces without producing any output, as in paged export
• Fixed encoding of <pre> and <textarea> elements that start with a newline
• Fixed encoding of raw text elements
• Fixed sizing of html.frame
• Fixed measure in HTML export
• Fixed nested html.frames
• Fixed that a box without a body was ignored in HTML export
• Fixed encoding of whitespace in HTML

SVG export

• Added support for COLR-flavored color glyphs
• Reduced amount of <g> grouping elements that are generated

PNG export

• Fixed crash when text size is negative

Visualize

• Added support for using PDFs as images using the new hayro library. PDFs will be embedded directly in PDF export, rasterized in PNG export, and turned into SVGs in SVG and HTML export. (Thanks to @LaurenzV for creating hayro!)
• Added support for WebP images
• Various minor improvements for SVG images (see the resvg 0.44 and 0.45 changelogs)
• SVG images can now refer to external image files
• Clip paths are now properly anti-aliased
• Fixed gradients on curves where the last segment is curve.line
• Fixed stroke cap handling of shapes with partial strokes
• Fixed corner radius handling of shapes with partial strokes
• Fixed crash when sampling across two coinciding gradient stops

Layout

• Added opt-in support for character-level justification in addition to word-level justification, configured via the new par.justification-limits property. This is an impactful microtypographical technique that can significantly improve the appearance of justified text.
• Fixed wrong linebreak opportunities related to object replacement characters
• Fixed an issue where a breakable block would still produce an empty segment even if nothing fit into the first segment, leading to various undesirable behaviors in combination with fills, strokes, and stickiness
• Fixed crash with set rule for column or rowspan on a grid cell
• Fixed CJK-Latin-spacing at manual line breaks and at sub- and superscript boundaries

Math

• Added frac.style property with new options for skewed and inline fractions
• Added math.equation.alt property for setting an alternative description for an equation
• Text handling
  • A single equation can now use multiple fonts
  • Glyph layout in math now uses proper text shaping, leading to better handling of more complex Unicode features
  • Generated characters in an equation (e.g. the √ produced by sqrt) can now be targeted by text show rules
  • Added scr function for roundhand script font style
  • Added dotless parameter to accent (typically for rendering a dotless accented i or j)
  • Script-style glyphs are now preferred at reduced math sizes
  • Fixed text.stroke in math
  • Broken glyph assemblies are now prevented even when font data is incorrect
• Layout
  • Fixed a bug with vertical accent positioning
  • Fixed positioning of bottom accents
  • Fixed a bug with layout of roots
  • Improved layout of vec and cases, making it consistent with mat
  • Removed linebreak opportunity before closing bracket in inline math
• An augment line can now exist at the start and end of a matrix, not only in between columns and rows
• Shorthands and multi-character numbers do not bind more tightly than fractions anymore in cases like $x>=(y)/z$ (Minor breaking change)
• Named arguments passed to symbols used as function now raise an error instead of being silently ignored (Minor breaking change)
• The mid element does not force the "large" math class upon its contents anymore and instead defaults to "relation"
• Fixed error in math parsing when .. isn't followed by anything
• Fixed the default math class of ⅋, ⎰, ⟅, ⎱, ⟆, ⟇, and ،

Thanks to @mkorje for his work on math!

Model

• Tables
  • Added support for multiple headers and subheaders in tables
  • Table headers now force a rowbreak, i.e. an incomplete row before a header will not be filled with cells after the header
  • Fixed a bug where headers and footers could accidentally expand to contain non-header cells
• Added title element for displaying the document title
• Added figure.alt property for setting an alternative description for a figure
• Link hit boxes for text are now vertically a bit larger to avoid issues with automatic link detection in PDF viewers
• The link function will now produce an erro...

Highlights

• There is now a distinction between proper paragraphs and just inline-level content. This is important for future work on accessibility and means that first line indent can now be enabled for all paragraphs instead of just consecutive ones.
• The outline has a better out-of-the-box look and is more customizable
• The new curve function (that supersedes the path function) provides a simpler and more flexible interface for creating Bézier curves
• The image function now supports raw pixel raster formats for generating images from within Typst
• Functions that accept file paths now also accept raw bytes, for full flexibility
• WebAssembly plugins are more flexible and automatically run multi-threaded
• Fixed a long-standing bug where single-letter strings in math ($"a"$) would be displayed in italics
• You can now specify which charset should be covered by which font family
• The pdf.embed function lets you embed arbitrary files in the exported PDF
• HTML export is currently under active development. The feature is still very incomplete, but already available for experimentation behind a feature flag.

Model

• There is now a distinction between proper paragraphs and just inline-level content (Breaking change)
  • All text at the root of a document is wrapped in paragraphs. Meanwhile, text in a container (like a block) is only wrapped in a paragraph if the container holds any block-level content. If all of the content is inline-level, no paragraph is created.
  • In the laid-out document, it's not immediately visible whether text became part of a paragraph. However, it is still important for accessibility, HTML export, and for properties like first-line-indent.
  • Show rules on par now only affect proper paragraphs
  • The first-line-indent and hanging-indent properties also only affect proper paragraphs
  • Creating a par[..] with body content that is not fully inline-level will result in a warning
  • The default show rules of various built-in elements like lists, quotes, etc. were adjusted to ensure they produce/don't produce paragraphs as appropriate
  • Removed support for booleans and content in outline.indent
• The outline function was fully reworked to improve its out-of-the-box behavior (Breaking change)
  • Outline entries are now blocks and are thus affected by block spacing
  • The auto indentation mode now aligns numberings and titles outline-wide for a grid-like look
  • Automatic indentation now also indents entries without a numbering
  • Titles wrapping over multiple lines now have hanging indent
  • The page number won't appear alone on its own line anymore
  • The link now spans the full entry instead of just the title and page number
  • The default spacing between outline leader dots was increased
  • The fill parameter was moved from outline to outline.entry and can thus be configured through show-set rules
  • Removed body and page fields from outline entry
  • Added indented, prefix, inner, body, and page methods on outline entries to simplify writing of show rules
• Added configuration to par.first-line-indent for indenting all paragraphs instead of just consecutive ones
• Added form parameter to ref function. Setting the form to "page" will produce a page reference instead of a textual one.
• Added document.description field, which results in corresponding PDF and HTML metadata
• Added enum.reversed parameter
• Added support for Greek numbering
• When the link function wraps around a container like a block, it will now generate only one link for the whole block instead of individual links for all the visible leaf elements. This significantly reduces PDF file sizes when combining link and repeat.
• The link function will now only strip one prefix (like mailto: or tel:) instead of multiple
• The link function now suppresses hyphenation via a built-in show-set rule rather than through its default show rule
• Displaying the page counter without a specified numbering will now take the page numbering into account

Visualization

• Added new curve function that supersedes the path function and provides a simpler and more flexible interface. The path function is now deprecated.
• The image function now supports raw pixel raster formats. This can be used to generate images from within Typst without the need for encoding in an image exchange format.
• Added image.scaling parameter for configuring how an image is scaled by PNG export and PDF viewers (smooth or pixelated)
• Added image.icc parameter for providing or overriding the ICC profile of an image
• Renamed pattern to tiling. The name pattern remains as a deprecated alias.
• Added gradient.center, gradient.radius, gradient.focal-center, and gradient.focal-radius methods
• Fixed interaction of clipping and outset on box and block
• Fixed panic with path of infinite length
• Fixed non-solid (e.g. tiling) text fills in clipped blocks
• Fixed a crash for images with a DPI value of zero
• Fixed floating-point error in gradient.repeat
• Auto-detection of image formats from a raw buffer now has support for SVGs

Scripting

• Functions that accept file paths now also accept raw bytes
  • image, cbor, csv, json, toml, xml, and yaml now support a path string or bytes and their .decode variants are deprecated
  • plugin, bibliography, bibliography.style, cite.style, raw.theme, and raw.syntaxes now accept bytes in addition to path strings. These did not have .decode variants, so this adds new flexibility.
  • The path argument/field of image and bibliography was renamed to source and sources, respectively (Minor breaking change)
• Improved WebAssembly plugins
  • The plugin type is replaced by a plugin function that returns a module containing normal Typst functions. This module can be used with import syntax. (Breaking change)
  • Plugins now automatically run in multiple threads without any changes by plugin authors
  • A new plugin.transition API is introduced which allows plugins to run impure initialization in a way that doesn't break Typst's purity guarantees
• The variable name bound by a bare import (no renaming, no import list) is now determined statically and dynamic imports without as renaming (e.g. import "ot" + "her.typ") are a hard error (Breaking change)
• Values of the arguments type can now be added with + and joined in curly-braced code blocks
• Functions in an element function's scope can now be called with method syntax, bringing elements and types closer (in anticipation of a future full unification of the two). Currently, this is only useful for outline.entry as no other element function defines methods.
• Added calc.norm function
• Added support for 32-bit floats in float.from-bytes and float.to-bytes
• The decimal constructor now also accepts decimal values
• Improved repr of symbols, arguments, and types
• Duplicate symbol variants and modifiers are now a hard error (Breaking change)

Math

• Fixed a bug where single letter strings in math ($"a"$) would be displayed in italics
• Math function calls can now have hyphenated named arguments and support argument spreading
• Better looking accents thanks to support for the flac (Flattened Accent Forms) and dtls (Dotless Forms) OpenType features
• Added lcm text operator
• The bold function now works with ϝ and Ϝ
• The italic function now works with ħ
• Fixed a bug where the extent of a math equation was wrongly affected by internal metadata
• Fixed interaction of lr and context expressions
• Fixed weak spacing being unconditionally ignored in lr
