(DataExtractionModule.e\_GenericKeyValue) * Added a function to update http request custom headers for viewing linearized PDF file from URL. (PDFViewCtrl.UpdateCustomHeaders() and PDFViewWPF.UpdateCustomHeaders()) #### New Options * Added Inclusion and Exclusion zones to the Data Extraction Module. These zones allow users to specify regions of interest in a document when using specific Data Extraction Module engines. (DataExtractionOptions.AddInclusionZonesForPage() and DataExtractionOptions.AddExclusionZonesForPage()) #### Improvements: * \[pdf] Improved file size when inserting a CCITT image into a page by using CCITT compression in the PDF image stream if the original image is a TIFF image that is CCITT compressed and if the user has not specified any particular compression to use. * \[pdf] Improved how overlay text is aligned inside a redaction rectangle for cases where the PDF pages have rotation. * \[pdfua] Improved placement of link annotations within the structure tree when auto-tagging. * \[pdf] Improved performance of rendering of corrupt PDFs that contain vector graphics paths with enormously long segments. Previously, rendering such PDFs could take an extremely long period of time. * \[pdf] Added getter and setter functions for the radio button groups of optional content groups (OCGs) to the OCG Config class. * \[pdf] Improved the Apryse SDK's repair capabilities when opening corrupted PDF files. Previously our repair could be incomplete, causing inaccurate rendering or content extraction. * \[c++] Added an overload of PDFDoc.SaveViewerOptimized(), which accepts a ViewerOptimizedOptions reference. #### Bugfixes: * \[all] Fixed issue that could cause the error "locale::facet::\_S\_create\_c\_locale name not valid" on certain AWS Lambda runtimes (e.g., Node.js 20.x) * \[pdf] Fixed an issue where the 32-bit SDK created corrupt output PDF files when the 4GB size limit was exceeded. Now an exception is thrown instead, and the 64-bit SDK has no such size limit. * \[pdfa] Fixed a PDF/A validation case where an error "Embedded Type1 font descriptor's CharSet string does not list all glyphs." was reported when it was not the case. * \[pdfa] Fixed conversion to PDF/A-1a when a font is missing a ToUnicode table. * \[pdfa] Fixed the regeneration of the CID font's CIDSet during PDF/A-1a conversion when the same descendant font is shared by more than one CID parent font. * \[pdf] Fixed an issue where digital signature verification could fail when the OCSP response contains multiple certificates. * \[xfdf] Fixed a crash that could occur when converting FDF to XFDF if a page's viewport has no BBox entry. * \[pdf] Fixed a potential timeout issue in the Data Extraction Module. Previously the following exception may have occurred with very large PDFs: "Error extracting Form Fields from PDF using the AIPageObjectExtractor module Add-On. This module was not designed to run as a standalone application". Office Fidelity: * \[docx] Improved handling of interaction between floating elements and inline tables. * \[docx] Fixed paragraph spacing when the space before is set to auto. * \[docx] Fixed

\[xlsx] Fixed a rare null position reference exception occurring during Excel conversion. * \[office] Fixed incorrect text color in some diagrams. * \[office] Fixed an issue with missing image outlines in some documents. * \[office] Fixed incorrect size of shape text boxes in rotated shapes with the "Do not rotate text" flag set. * \[docx] Fixed an unexpected default stroke added to some shapes. * \[docx] Fixed displaying of deleted section breaks when change tracking is disabled. * \[xlsx] Fixed template filling for XLS/XLSX workbooks. * \[office] Fixed incorrect 3D rotation applied to shapes when the "Isometric Top Up" preset is selected. * \[xlsx] Fixed the "caller.m\_operators.back() == "f"" exception thrown for some Excel documents. * \[xlsx] Fixed an issue with incorrect evaluation of Excel formulas returning strings as boolean values. * \[docx] Added support for text outlines in DOCX documents. * \[xlsx] Fixed incorrect resolution of local hyperlinks in Excel. * \[xlsx] Avoided adding empty trailing pages to Excel sheets. * \[ppt] Fixed an issue missing tab indentations in PPT documents. * \[doc] Fixed an issue with missing bottom borders of the first row in tables in some DOC documents. * \[xlsx] Fixed an issue with missing text after images in Excel headers/footers. * \[docx] Fixed incorrect lengths of lines in some drawings. * \[pptx] Multi-column text boxes are now balanced when they overflow. * \[docx] Fixed an issue with extra borders between paragraphs with additional spacing. * \[pptx] Fixed incorrect text color in some PowerPoint documents. * \[docx] Fixed incorrect positions of floating shapes anchored inside framed paragraphs. * \[xlsx] Fixed an issue with horizontally oversized tables inside floating shapes. * \[doc] Fixed an issue where unexpected list numbers were appearing at the beginning of paragraphs in DOC document. * \[doc] Fixed an issue where some list numbers were being duplicated in DOC documents. * \[docx] Fixed the incorrect size of watermarks in some documents. * \[docx] Fixed an issue with "Keep lines together" paragraphs were moved to the next page for no reason. * \[docx] Content in "New column" sections is now placed on the correct page. * \[ppt] Fixed an issue where text did not appear bold when the "Times New Roman Bold" font was selected in PPT document. * \[docx] Accounted for border thickness when applying relative size and position to floating shapes. * \[office] Fixed incorrect rounding of percentage values in some chart data labels. * \[doc] Optimized output PDF size by eliminating duplicate
