-0.2 (95-dec-12)
----------------
-First public release.
-
-
-0.3 (96-jan-13)
----------------

-
-
-0.4 (96-apr-24)
----------------
-Implemented DCT filter.
-Implemented PostScript output; wrote pdftops program.
-Implemented links.
-Implemented font rotation -- I was wrong: X11R6 servers *do* support
- font rotation (by specifying a matrix in place of a size).
-Added bindings for Home/End, Page Up/Down, arrow keys.
-Added initialZoom resource and -z option.
-Added geometry resource and -g option.
-Fixed image size off-by-one bug.
-Fixed bug where page content is reference to an array of streams.
-Cleaned up uninitialized variables which were causing random problems
- on various platforms.
-Manually skip whitespace before calling atoi() for startxref.
-Replaced calls to XrmCombineFileDatabase() with calls to
- XrmGetFileDatabase() and XrmMergeDatabases() so it will work under
- older versions of X.
-Fixed problem with reading multiple xref tables in updated PDF files.
-Check for encryption and print appropriate error message.
-Rudimentary dithering of images.
-Fixed bug in CCITTFax filter (pass mode followed by horizontal mode).
-Optimized drawImage() and drawImageMask().
-Changed several things to ease porting:
- - changed '__inline' to 'inline' (to adhere to the ANSI standard)
- - surrounded interface/implementation pragmas with #ifdef _GNUC__
- - got rid of empty array initializer lists
- - moved Operator type definition from Gfx.cc to Gfx.h
- - renamed String, uint, etc.
- - ability to uncompress to file (NO_POPEN and USE_GZIP flags)
- - added definitions of XK_Page_Up/Down and XPointer for old versions
- of X
-For VMS port:
- - use correct Xdefaults name for VMS, get rid of ltkGetHomeDir()
- - added '#include <stddef.h>' before all X includes
- - renamed files with multiple periods in their names
-Fixed window resizing infinite oscillation bug.
-Fixed problem with string-type (as opposed to stream-type) indexed
- color space lookup tables (which are used in inline images).
-If an X font is not found, try smaller and then larger sizes (this is
- useful for old or broken X servers which can't scale bitmap fonts).
-Added -rgb (color cube size) option.
-Various minor bug fixes.
-
-
-0.5 (96-may-23)
----------------
-Fixed bug in LTKWindow which broke the remote server mode.
-Fixed PostScript output:
- - doesn't seg fault if file is unwritable.
- - incorrect DSC comment - need colon in '%%Page:'.
- - use 'imagemask' command for masks.
- - output filters in the correct order.
- - Stream::isBinary() checks the next-to-bottom, not top, stream.
- - if page width > height, rotate it 90 degrees.
- - if page is larger than paper size, scale it down.
-Set default MediaBox to 8.5" x 11" to deal with non-compliant PDF
- files which don't specify a MediaBox.
-Added DEBUG_MEM stuff in gmem.c and gmempp.cc.
-Fixed memory leaks:
- - LTKWindow didn't delete the LTKBox.
- - LinkAction needs a virtual destructor.
-Use $(RANLIB) variable in goo/Makefile and ltk/Makefile.
-Allocate image data after calling XCreateImage, using
- image->bytes_per_line -- works in 24-bit mode now.
-DCTStream rounds width of rowBuf lines up to the next multiple of
- mcuWidth, so last MCU doesn't run off end of buffer.
-Increase size of block (from 255 to 1024 bytes) read at end of file to
- search for 'startxref'.
-Skip past garbage at start of file, look for '%PDF'.
-Moved more compiler options out of Makefiles into Makefile.config.
-Top-level Makefile uses '$(MAKE)' instead of 'make' for making
- subdirectories.
-Space/PageDown/Next and Backspace/PageUp/Previous now moves to
- next/previous page if already scrolled to bottom/top of current
- page.
-
-
-0.5a (96-jul-09)
-----------------
-[not a public release]
-For PDF 1.2 (a.k.a. Amber, a.k.a. Acrobat 3) support:
- - look for trailer after first xref instead of at end of file.
-Deal with font subsets by converting character names of the form
- 'Cnnnn' to the appropriate character from the standard encoding.
-Extract encoding from embedded Type 1 fonts.
-Kludge to fill one-pixel thick polygons.
-Changed X font encoding to use endash for hyphen (gets rid of too-long
- hyphens).
-Handle Resources key in Pages dictionaries (needed for pstoedit
- output).
-Fix comment handling in Parser (needed for pstoedit output).
-Move Bezier curve conversion from GfxState to XOutputDev; look at
- flatness parameter in GfxState.
-Change all of the path functions in XOutputDev (stroke, fill, clip) to
- use the same path transformation/conversion function.
-Rewrote PostScript output driver as a subclass of OutputDev; removed
- duplicated code (ps_ functions) from Gfx.
-Fixed bug in xref code with small (< 1024 bytes) PDF files.
-Implemented BX/EX operators.
-Added PDFDoc class.
-
-
-0.6 (96-nov-12)
----------------
-Add support for PostScript output to stdout (-) and to a command
- (|lpr); added -ps option and psFile resource.
-Decryption is implemented but not included in the distribution due to
- legal restrictions: the decryption algorithm is a trade secret of
- RSA, Inc., and the U.S.A. still has bogus export controls on
- cryptography software.
-Added .xpdfrc config file:
- - Added fontmap parameter: user can map PDF font names to X fonts.
- - Added fontpath parameter: search for Type 1 font if encoding is
- not in PDF file.
-Incremental display: display is updated after every 200 commands.
-Added forward and backward by-10-page buttons.
-Links:
- - Implement links with "Launch" actions that point to PDF files.
- - Draw borders around links.
- - Handle links with named destinations.
- - GoToR links specify a page number instead of a page reference.
-Optimizations:
- - Rewrote Stream to use buffering, and added lookChar() functions;
- rewrote Lexer to take advantage of this.
- - Use hash tables for name->code mapping in font encodings.
- - Made XOutputDev::doCurve() iterative, changed /2 to *0.5, and
- changed the flatness test.
-Added file name to window title.
-Implemented RunLength filter.
-Implemented forms.
-Convert ObjType to an enum.
-Changed isDict("Pages") to isDict() (in Catalog.cc) to deal with
- incorrect PDF files.
-Changed color selection so that very pale colors don't map to white.
-Fixed bug in CCITTFax filter (multiple make-up codes).
-In GString::clear(): need to set length to 0 before calling resize().
-Base initial window size on first displayed page, not page 1; deal
- correctly with rotated pages.
-Added ltkGetIntResource() and LTKApp::getIntResource().
-PostScript output fixes:
- - Escape backslashes in strings.
- - When doing ASCII85 encoding, keep both chars of EOF marker ('~>')
- on same line.
- - Add extra line '%-EOD-' after image data streams; call wrapper
- functions for image and imagemask which look for this line -- this
- should fix the 'too much data in stream' bug.
- - Font tags can be reused for different fonts on different pages --
- so use font object reference (number/generation) instead.
-Initialize character widths to zero (this caused crashes on OSF/1).
-Handle image masks which go outside of pixmap.
-Makefile.config changes:
- - Remove -o in C++ compile rule.
- - Add $(AR) variable.
-Code which read char widths from font dictionary read all but the last
- width.
-Add 'return 0;' to main() in xpdf and pdftops.
-Allow fonts to use StandardEncoding.
-Convert man pages to VMS help files.
-
-0.7 (97-may-28)
----------------
-Implemented FlateDecode filter (for PDF 1.2).
-Basic xref table reconstruction for damaged files
-New pdftotext program converts PDF to plain text.
-Implemented menus in LTK; added a menu to xpdf.
-Added open and save functions; allow xpdf to start without any PDF
- file.
-Implemented text find.
-Implemented text select/copy.
-Change mouse cursor when it's over a link.
-Embed Type 1 fonts in PostScript output.
-Moved rotate functions to menu; added quit to menu.
-Fixed stroke color bug in PostScript output (was using fill color
- instead of stroke color; this sometimes caused lines to be missing
- (white) in PostScript output).
-Support Launch-type links -- pops up a dialog before executing
- anything. Expects the A (action) dictionary to contain a Unix
- dictionary with F (file) and P (paremeter) keys just like the Win
- dictionary.
-A moveto op all by itself should just be discarded, instead of
- generating a subpath with one point (this was causing seg faults).
-Balanced parentheses in strings don't need to be escaped.
-Tj operator in PostScript prolog didn't check for zero when dividing
- by length of string.
-Implemented selection in LTK; TextIn widgets support dragging/copy/
- paste.
-Handle font subsets that use hex character codes.
-Added icon pixmap; added the XPMLIB and NO_XPM variables to
- Makefile.config.
-Fixed subtle bug in use of horizontal scaling parameter (it affects
- only the width of drawn characters, not positioning done in text
- space).
-Memory testing (with DEBUG_MEM):
- - gmalloc now fills memory blocks with garbage to catch unitialized
- fields.
- - gfree fills memory blocks with garbage to catch uses of freed
- blocks.
-Handle image masks which go off the pixmap on the top and/or left.
-Fixed inline functions which had two return statements (to make the
- HP, SCO, and other cfront-based compilers happy).
-Fixed bug which caused seg faults when following a link to a different
- file (info in LinkGoto object was used after link was deleted by
- loadFile).
-If page content is an array of streams, the streams are concatenated;
- objects and commands can span multiple streams.
-If file open fails, try lower-casing and upper-casing the file name.
-Commands should end when lexer sees a '/' character.
-GString::append(char *, int) was broken.
-Changed LTKScrollingCanvas redraw to be more efficient: copy as much
- as possible from window before copying from off-screen pixmap.
-Ignore gs (set extended graphics state) operator.
-Handle colorspaces (CalGray/RGB are treated as DeviceGray/RGB; the
- weird colorspaces are not yet implemented).
-Named destinations (for links) can be strings as well as names; deal
- with the names tree in the catalog.
-Clip to the page CropBox.
-Added '-q' to gzip options (to suppress warnings, in case user has -v
- in GZIP env var).
-Added 'include Makefile.config' to top-level Makefile.
-Added INSTALL variable to Makefile.config; used in top-level
- Makefile.
-Always initialize LinkDest left/bottom/top/right/zoom fields (bogus
- floating point values were causing crashes on Alpha).
-Added Makefile.config options for Digital Unix (DEC compilers), HP-UX
- (HP compilers), SCO Unix, and Evans & Sutherland ES/OS.
-Added flag to set stream mode in fopen call for VMS.
-Rewrote Link module.
-Pages with no contents shouldn't cause an error message.
-In PostScript output: pdfImM needs to set fill color before doing
- imagemask.
-If font doesn't specify character widths, use widths from built-in
- font, based on font flags.
-Fixed LTK scrollbar to delay before repeating and to control the
- period between repeats.
-Removed window/widget copy() methods (they were untested and unused).
-Unknown filter types produce a single error message instead of a
- stream of errors.
-Added a dummy target in top-level Makefile so making individual
- executables (e.g., 'make pdftops') should now work.
-Added optional xpdf-flip.ltk with buttons on right side instead of
- bottom of window.
-
-0.7a (98-feb-22)
-----------------
-Moved find command from menu to toolbar button ('f' key still works).
-Support TrueColor visuals.
-Added a -cmap option and a installCmap resource to install a private
- colormap.
-Mouse button 2 pans the window.
-Selecting a URI link now executes a configurable command (from the
- urlCommand resource).
-Added a "link info" display which shows the URL or file for the link
- under the mouse.
-Don't draw (or convert to PostScript) text drawn in render modes 3 and
- 7 -- this is invisible text, used by Acrobat Capture; this text is
- still passed to the TextPage object so that selection works.
-Recognize (and quietly ignore) marked content operators (BMC, BDC,
- EMC, MP, DP).
-Recognize new color-setting operators (scn, SCN).
-Added A4_PAPER option.
-Embed external Type 1 font files (this currently only works with PFA
- files).
-Added "-level1" option (in xpdf and pdftops) to generate Level 1
- PostScript.
-Setup autoconf -- replaced Makefile.config. Added SELECT_TAKES_INT
- flag, and use configure to autodetect (for HP-UX).
-Fixed appendToPath() to behave reasonably when appending ".." to root
- directory.
-Fixed array size in FlateStream::compHuffmanCodes() (was causing xpdf
- to crash under OSF/1).
-ASCII85Stream, ASCIIHexStream, and DCTStream didn't check for EOF and
- could run past the end of the stream in damaged files.
-Handle hex escapes (#xx) in names. Still allow the name /# for
- backward-compatibility.
-Check for NULL characters in encoding array in GfxFont.cc (was calling
- strcmp() with NULL which crashed under Solaris).
-PageAttrs::PageAttrs() didn't initialize crop box boundaries.
-Changed uses of lookup() to lookupNF() in XRef.cc.
-Fixed type checking of operators which take a variable number of
- args.
-Gfx::buildImageStream() doesn't need to check for parser (since I got
- rid of the bogus array-of-command thing).
-XOutputFont matches on font reference instead of font tag (similar to
- PSOutputDev fix).
-Fixed bug in position calculation for multi-char substitutions in
- XOutputDev.
-Cleaned up local variables which hid class variables.
-Optimized variable length decoding in CCITTFaxStream.
-Set link border width to zero if Border dictionary entry is missing.
-Throw away zero-length strings in TextOutputDev -- they don't have
- valid xMin/xMax values.
-Swapped order of XLIBS and XPMLIB in xpdf/Makefile.
-Deleted 'LTKApp::' in function declaration in LTKApp.h.
-Changed '(XKeyEvent *)&event' to '&event.xkey' in LTKApp.cc.
-Check that the link rectangle coordinates are in the correct order,
- and swap if necessary.
-TextOutputDev didn't set text to NULL, which caused pdftotext to
- segfault if it couldn't open it's output file.
-Fixed a hash table search bug in GfxFontEncoding::getCharCode().
-Cleaned up colorspace code: rewrote GfxColorSpace and added
- GfxImageColorMap; cleaned up PSOutputDev::doImage.
-Handle named colorspaces in images.
-Correctly set the default color after a colorspace change.
-Old setcolor operators now set the colorspace.
-Fixed bug with uncompressed blocks in FlateStream.
-Fixed bug with fixed Huffman code table in FlateStream.
-Added hash table of X windows (for LTKWindow and LTKWidget) to LTKApp
- and replaced calls to XQueryTree with hash table searches -- this
- avoids a roundtrip to the server for each event and also fixes the
- problem where XQueryTree crashed if the window no longer existed
- (with leftover events from a destroyed window). (Thanks to Yair
- Lenga for the suggestion.)
-Create a new GC for selection -- xor black and white (instead of LTK
- foreground and background).
-Fixed crash with blank lines in .xpdfrc.
-Allow spaces in font descriptors in fontmap lines in .xpdfrc.
-Check for bogus object number in XRef::fetch().
-Use MacRomanEncoding for TrueType fonts that don't specify an
- encoding.
-Certain PDF generators apparently don't include FontDescriptors for
- Arial, TimesNewRoman, and CourierNew -- set GfxFont flags
- appropriately.
-Fixed a bug in width guessing in GfxFont -- sans serif and serif were
- swapped.
-Rewrote XRef::readXRef() to avoid using a parser to read the xref
- entries.
-Added NO_TEXT_SELECT option.
-Ignore APPn/COM/etc. markers in DCT streams.
-Replaced select() with XMultiplexInput() in LTKApp.cc for VMS.
-Handle WM_DELETE_WINDOW protocol -- if you ask the window manager to
- delete the xpdf window, xpdf will exit cleanly; other
- windows/dialogs are simply closed.
-Optimized DCT decoder; switched to integer arithmetic.
-The "/Type /Annots" field in an annotation dictionary is optional.
-Check for null nameTree in Catalog::findDest().
-In XOutputDev, search user font map before default font map.
-Added "normal" SETWIDTH parameter to all font descriptors in
- XOutputDev (some systems have a narrow-width Helvetica font).
-Added FOPEN_READ_BIN and FOPEN_WRITE_BIN to support Win32.
-Added a hack which allows better font substitution for some Type 3
- fonts. Also allow character names of the form /nn and /nnn.
-Added <strings.h> and <bstring.h> to LTKApp.cc (needed by AIX and IRIX
- for bzero() declaration for FD_ZERO).
-
-0.80 (98-nov-27)
-----------------
-Support for some Japanese fonts (Type 0 fonts using the Adobe-Japan1-2
- character collection, horizontal only).
-Added pdfinfo application.
-Added pdftopbm application.
-Added pdfimages application.
-Added -papercolor option and .paperColor resource.
-Fixed divide-by-zero problem in XOutputDev Type 3 font matrix kludge.
-Font subset char names can be 'Bxx' as well as 'Cxx' and 'Gxx'.
-Fixed bug in color space conversion in DCTStream filter (YCC->RGB was
- correct, YCCK->CMYK was broken).
-Added XRef::getDocInfo() and PDFDoc::getDocInfo() to support pdfinfo.
-Optimized GfxImageColorMap.
-Lexer::getStream(), getPos(), and setPos() check for null stream.

- the PSOutputDev destructor tried to write to the PS file.
- - Added support for forms (pdftops -form).
-Removed error messages for empty paths in stroke, fill, etc. operators.
-Don't allow flatnesses less than 1 in XOutputDev (this speeds up
- rendering a little bit when there are lots of tiny curves).
-Moved the font subset character name guessing from GfxFont to
- XOutputDev and TextOutputDev - now these files print correctly.
-Cast argument to XFree() to XPointer; add XPointer definition where
- necessary (portability fixes).
-Various minor VMS fixes.
-Changes to configure script and Makefiles:
- - Print a warning if X is missing.
- - Use C++ when checking select() argument type (HP-UX).

- - Change things so that by default, ltkbuild is not built and
- xpdf-ltk.h is not rebuilt.
- - Use AM_PROG_CC_STDC to add compiler flags for ANSI C.
- - Modify autoconf's builtin macros to check for xlC.
- - Use Steve Robbins' smr_CHECK_LIB to test for pixmap library (Xpm)
- -- this should fix the problems on systems that have the library
- but not the include file.
- - Added better test for sys/select.h, sys/bsdtypes.h, strings.h,
- bstring.h.
- - New VMS make scripts from Martin P.J. Zinser.
- - Moved dependences into Makefile.in -- this gets rid of problems
- with 'cc -MM' (which is gcc-specific) and 'include Makefile.dep'
- (which isn't supported by all make implementations). Also changed
- all non-system include files to '#include "..."' (from '<...>').
-Tweaked the TextOutputDev heuristics slightly.
-Modify Gfx to use a stack of resources -- this is necessary for Form
- XObjects, which can define their own local resources; also modified

-Support for Chinese fonts (Type 0 fonts using the Adobe-GB1-2
- character collection).
-Decryption code is included with the main distribution (now that the
- US export regulations are a little bit less irrational).
-Added (very basic) support for generating PostScript with Japanese
- fonts -- only tested with ghostscript so far.
-Added support for generating EPS files (pdftops -eps).
-Much-improved image filtering in xpdf (for downsampling and for
- transforms other than 0/90/180/270-degree rotations).
-Implemented a basic full-screen (presentation) mode (xpdf
- -fullscreen). (There is currently no way to switch between window

- release.)
-Added "reload" menu item.
-Do a better job with anti-aliased Type 1 fonts on non-white
- backgrounds.

-Handle files with an incorrect page count in the Pages dictionary
- (FOP, from the Apache project produces a page count of 0).

- CourierNew) -- Adobe's tools use these names without embedding the
- fonts.
-Tweaked the Type 3 font sizing kludge.
-Changed pdfimages (ImageOutputDev) so it doesn't output JPEG files for
- 4-component color spaces, since these seem to confuse most image

- work if the PDF file contains correct font encodings, which seems to
- be rare).

- operators.
-Skip over notdef glyphs in TrueType fonts (which sometimes get drawn

- generate better PS code, including a Level 3 option.
-Tweaked the DEBUG_MEM code for performance.
-Move the JBIG2 global stream reading code into reset() instead of the
- constructor - this way, pdftotext doesn't end up reading the global
- stream.
-Added the "-preload" option to pdftops and the psPreload xpdfrc
- command.
-Added the "zoom to selection" command (on the popup menu).
-Fix a bug (in xpdf/pdftoppm/pdftops) with tiling patterns whose bbox
- size is different from their xStep/yStep.
-Implemented stroke with pattern color spaces.
-Following a link to a page whose CropBox was different from the
- MediaBox was resulting in an incorrect scroll position.
-Parse truncated date strings from the Info dictionary correctly.
-Change FoFiType1 to handle Type 1 fonts with two /Encoding keys.
-Extend the PSOutputDev shaded fill code to handle DeviceCMYK shaded
- fills in level2sep and level3sep modes.
-Detect infinite loops in the Page tree.
-Optimized the ASCII85Encoder code.
-Tweaked the text extractor to do a better job of lining up rows of
- text.
-Leave images compressed (or re-compress them with RLE) in PostScript
- output when setting up images for forms and Type 3 fonts (or with
- -preload).
-Extend FoFiType1 to handle Type 1 fonts with octal character codes in
- their encodings.
-Use a custom string formatter to avoid problems with locale-based decimal
- formatting (commas instead of periods) in PS output.
-Allow comments in PostScript-type functions.
-Change the TrueType font parser (FoFiTrueType) to delete glyf table
- entries that are too short.
