The latest public release of Solid Framework SDK is now available for download from the developer portal at www.solidframework.net. This is version 9.2.8284.

 

MAIN FEATURES

IMPROVED HANDLING OF SHADING

The rendering and conversion of Type 3 and Type 7 shading has been significantly improved.

RED NUMBERS ARE NO LONGER CONSIDERED TO ALWAYS BE NEGATIVE WHEN CONVERTING TO EXCEL

Previously red numeric text was always considered to represent negative numbers. It is now considered to be negative only if it is preceded by a “-” sign.

FURTHER OCR IMPROVEMENTS

SolidOCR continues to improve, and this release contains further refinements. In this release we have made improvements in the recognition of bold text within documents as well as specific improvements within the 32 bit version of the Framework.

SUPPORT FOR REMOVING TAGS FROM A PDF DOCUMENT

Solid Framework has supported tags within PDF documents for many years. Tags are used to guide the reconstruction process, which can result in visually similar PDFs being reconstructed differently depending on whether or not they are tagged.

We have now added functionality to allow tags to be removed if required.
