Version 12.1.0 Changelog (Aug 19, 2026)

• [xod] Added e_flatten_except_links to XODOutputOptions and corrected the description of the existing e_flatten behavior.
• [office] Added a new OfficeToPDFOption.FileNameFieldOverride option, which can be used to control what's displayed for filename fields in Word and Excel files.
• [pdf] Added a new API PDFView.SnapToNearestInDocFromPageSpace() method that snaps a point to the nearest piece of document geometry on the specified page.

• [.net] Changed the packaged .NET Samples to target net10.0.
• [emf] Improved security around handling the binary data of WMF and EMF images.
• [pdf] Improved the handling of invalid PDF dash patterns in annotation border styles. Previously, exporting PDF annotations into an XFDF file could cause a GetAt() can't be invoked on Obj of this type exception when the dash style wasn't an array.

• [pdf] Fixed the iterator increment on text search with RegEx that can match an empty string. Previously, incremental search through the document in that scenario could result in an infinite loop.
• [pdf] Fixed a memory access violation on text search with a null cancellation handler.
• [pdf] Fixed ambient string construction during text search if the matched pattern is located at position 1. Previously, requesting an ambient string could result in a memory access violation.
• [pdf] Fixed minor differences in text alignment in multi-line text form field appearances to better match the rendering behavior of common PDF viewers.
• [xfdf] Fixed an issue where a semantically correct XFDF file could cause invalid right-aligned text layout in rotated FreeText annotations.
• [pdf] Fixed page rendering where the page size, output color model, and/or the requested DPI required more than 2GiB of memory. Previously, the app could crash due to a memory access violation.
• [pdf] Fixed an issue in the TextExtractor class where repeatedly extracting text from the same pages could sometimes change the word bounding boxes very slightly.
• [pdf] Fixed a memory access violation in certain cases when re-enabling content edit mode.
• [pdf] Fixed an issue in the PDFViewCtrl class where a link annotation would sometimes not react to a mouse click when the link annotation belongs to an Optional Content Membership Dictionary (OCMD).

• [pdf] Fixed a number of printing issues in Windows where PrinterMode settings like paper size or other printer default settings were being ignored.
