What?s new in this release?

The latest version of Aspose.Pdf for .NET (11.4.0) has been released. It offers some new features as well as enhancements to previously supported functionalities. The capability to add hidden text is one of the major New Features introduced in this release. Furthermore, we also have introduced the capability to use PDF file objects after calling ProcessPragraphs() method which is not possible with earlier release versions. In order to add hidden text, set TextState.Invisible property to ?true? for the added text. TextFragmentAbsorber finds all text that match pattern (if specified). Please note that hidden text in the document will be invisible for end user while viewing the document with PDF reading software (e.g. Acrobat Reader). But it can be found using text search. There are several ways to make text invisible for end user in PDF and we have implemented one of those techniques. However the text added through our approach can be found using TextFragmentAbsorber and we can not guarantee that any hidden text added by third party applications can be found using same approach but in case you encounter any issue, please share the resource file and we can further investigate the scenario. The ProcessPragraphs() method was introduced to calculate objects placed inside PDF file and in case we need to have page count information during PDF file generation, this method can be used as it manipulates file objects and returns the desired information. In earlier release versions, once this method was called, the file objects could not be accessed any further. So if you need to add any new object to existing page instance, it was not possible and you had to have a new Page instance where objects can be placed. Nevertheless, starting this new release, you can utilize same Page objects even after calling the ProcessPragraphs() method. As well as the enhancements and features discussed above, there have been specific improvements regarding PDF to PDF/A, Multi-Column PDF, FootNote rendering, generation of large table objects inside PDF, XFA Form to Standard Acro Form conversion, PDF to Image, PDF to HTML, HTML to PDF conversion, Text replacement and rendering PDF files to XPS format conversion. The list of important new and improved features are given below

- Add and search hidden text in PDF document for post processing
- Using same Page object after ProcessPragraphs() call
- PDF to PDFA conversion throws System.NullReferenceException
ArgumentOutOfRangeException during PDF creation

Spatial Reference Systems Support, Working with WKT & Create Vector Layer with SRS

What is new in this release?

Aspose team is pleased to announce the release of Aspose.GIS for .NET 18.4. This month’s release brings exciting new feature of spatial reference system implementation for geo-spatial objects. The API allows to apply spatial reference system to vector layers as well as geometrical objects. This month’s release introduces a new feature for supporting Spatial Reference Systems (SRS). After the launch of this API, this is the first time it has implemented support for SRS. THE API not only lets users create new Datums but also generate new SRS with Custom parameters. Well-known text (WKT) is a text markup language for representing vector geometry objects on a map, spatial reference systems of spatial objects and transformations between spatial reference systems. Aspose.GIS API lets users create Spatial Reference System from WKT as well as export an existing SRS to WKT format. The sample code on blog announcement page shows how to create SRS from WKT. Users can also use the API to create a vector layer with SRS. The ProjectedSpatialReferenceSystemParameters lets users define the parameters for the SRS which are then used while creating new vector layer. In addition to creating vector layer with SRS, users can also set SRS for a Geometry like Point, Line, etc. The SpatialReferenceSystem property of Geometry objects let users set the SRS for the specified shape. In such case, child objects take the SRS of parent while parent’s object SRS is set to child’s on first point addition. The list of new and enhanced features are listed bellow

- Spatial reference systems support
- Convert between spatial reference systems
- Fix IGeometry methods visibility
