PSPDFKitUI

• Added

  Adds a colors property to SignatureViewController.Configuration to customize the available signature colors the user can pick from. (#29361)

• Added

  Adds localized names for all recorded undoable commands. (#29454)

• Added

  Adds support for transparent bar background changes on iOS 15 when PDFViewController is a direct child of a UINavigationController or a UITabBarController. For other view controller hierarchies, you should set your bar’s scrollEdgeAppearance to be the same as its standardAppearance. (#30749)

• Added

  Adds an accessibilityIdentifier to all accessibility elements representing a FormElement. The accessibilityIdentifier matches the fullyQualifiedName of the corresponding form element — note that this will differ from the FQN of a form field to disambiguate the unique widgets of radio buttons, checkboxes, etc. (Z#27002)

• Removed

  Removes the ⌘ ← key command to navigate back in PDFNavigationController when running on iOS 15+ because UIKit added its own ⌘ [ key command for this. (#30174)

• Changed

  PDFNavigationController no longer sets a scrollEdgeAppearance, which means that the navigation bar has no background when scrolled to the top to match modern iOS design. (#30749)

• Changed

  PDFViewController doesn’t try to become first responder when reloading on iOS 15+ since this is no longer necessary and can interfere with the UIKit focus system. (#30923)

• Changed

  MultiDocumentViewController (the superclass of PDFTabbedViewController) can no longer become first responder because its child PDFViewController is a better candidate for first responder. (#30923)

• Fixed

  Fixes an issue where a page label in the document editor was not updated during drag and drop reordering. (#30752)

  Deprecates the PSPDFKit.FileManager methods fileHandleForWriting(to:withBlock:) and fileHandle(forUpdating:withBlock:) because these are not called by PSPDFKit. (#229939)

• Added

  Adds support for blend mode in all annotations when using Instant JSON. If blendMode is not specified, it defaults to normal. (#29582)

• Changed

  Improves rendering non-Latin text (like Arabic) when selecting specific fonts. (#30517)

• Fixed

  Fixes an issue where highlight annotations used the wrong blend mode after importing with Instant JSON. (#30537)

• Fixed

  Fixes inaccessible files possibly being erroneously reported as corrupted. (#29556)

• Fixed

  Fixes an out of bounds page index access that could occur during note annotation saving in multi-provider documents. (#30742)

  Fixes annotations being rotated incorrectly when using a custom annotation provider and temporary rotation (setRotationOffset) and saving more than once. (#30730)

Examples

• Fixed

  Fixes arrow key control not working in the Snake example. (#30552)

PSPDFKit

• API

  The PSPDFDocumentWillSaveAnnotationsNotification notification has been refined for Swift as Document.willSaveAnnotations. (#29518)

• Changed

  Improves freetext annotation rendering across PSPDFKit platforms by honoring the isFitting attribute from Instant JSON. (#28719)

• Fixed

  Fixes the page render disk cache not inheriting the file protection level of the cache directory and instead using the default protection level of the container as set in the entitlements file. This only applies to newly cached images. To ensure old cached images are not using an incorrect protection level, please either clear the disk cache or enumerate the contents of the cache directory and set the file protection level as desired. (#30430)

• Fixed

  Fixes the PDF table of contents (outline) linking to the wrong page in certain documents. (#30070)

• Fixed

  Fixes a rare crash that may happen when rendering certain PDFs. (#29843)

• Fixed

  Fixes XFDF annotations like lines without an explicit width attribute not being rendered. In these cases, PSPDFKit now mimics Acrobat’s behavior and implies a line width of 1 pt. (#30291, Z#25968)

• Fixed

  Fixes fine-grained page reloading not always calling the correct document provider creation callback method. (#29518)

• Fixed

  Fixes undoing removing an annotation resulting in the annotation being added at an incorrect page index when using a document with multiple document providers. (#30329)

• API

  Changes a property attribute of AnnotationStateManager.pencilInteraction from nullable to nonnull, since it will never be nil on iOS versions above 12.1. (#29985)

• Removed

  Deprecates all API related to page grabber: PDFViewController.pageGrabberController, PageGrabber, PageGrabberView, PageGrabberController, PDFConfiguration.pageGrabberEnabled and PDFView.pageGrabberEnabled. These are no longer needed because the scroll indicator from UIScrollView supports dragging on iOS 13 and later. (#30004)

• Removed

  Deprecates appearanceManager(_:applyAppearanceSettingsForMode:) and appearanceManager(_:updateConfiguration:forMode:) methods of AppearanceModeManagerDelegate since they are replaced by the overrideUserInterfaceStyle property on UIView and UIViewController on iOS 13 and later. (#29820)

• Fixed

  Fixes an issue where the Instant JSON would contain redundant data after removing a form field. (#29671)

• Fixed

  Fixes an issue where undo and redo stacks would persist in an invalid state after saving changes in the Document Editor. (#29691)

• Fixed

  Fixes an issue where undo and redo stacks would persist in an invalid state after setting a temporary page rotation offset. (#29924)

• Fixed

  Fixes an issue where undoing and redoing changes made to annotations would not restore their previous custom appearance streams. (#19523)

Instant

• Added

  Adds support for Instant Document Permissions. (#29983)

• Added

  Adds support for the (optional) creator_name claim in JWTs: Documents managed by Instant now reflect this value in their defaultAnnotationUsername property, if it is encoded in the JWT. As a result, all annotations and comments locally created in this Document will report this value as their creator. (#29507)

• Fixed

  Fixes a lock inversion that could lead to a deadlock. (#29743)

• Fixed

  Fixes an issue where locally created Instant comment markers could end up appearing as regular note annotations. (#30010)

Examples

See the announcement post.

This release adds the Reader View component, as well as Office Files Support. If you would like to obtain PSPDFKit Server or add either to your license, ping our sales team to receive a quote.

In preparation for iOS 14, this version of PSPDFKit now drops support for iOS 11. It also requires and is built with Xcode 11.5 (11E608c). PSPDFKit and PSPDFKitUI now also come with a stable module interface. This enables linking with PSPDFKit frameworks, even if the Swift compiler version used in your application differs from the one we used to build the frameworks.

This release has some smaller breaking API changes. Please see our migration guide for details.
