PDF-Tools Version History

Released Sep 9th, 2024 . Requires maintenance through Sep 9th, 2024

NEW Added an option to exclude folders and files in the 'Choose Input Files' action when using the 'Select folder' and 'Select file list' options.

For the 'Select Folder' option, files and folders to exclude can be specified by enabling the 'Exclude subfolders and files' option in the dialog, which can be opened by clicking the '...' button. When using the 'Select File List' option, files and folders to exclude can be specified in the *.pdtfl file using a special syntax. The syntax rules can be viewed by clicking 'Choose Input Files -> Select File List -> Info' button in the 'Choose Input Files' action dialog.

NEW Added an option to enable a Debug Log file (via Options -> Preferences -> Debug), which contains messages about the application's operation.

This feature can help identify and resolve issues when the application's behavior is difficult to reproduce. By default, the Debug Log is disabled, but when enabled, all logs are stored locally and can be sent to support if needed.

  • Fixed the issue where the incorrect 'Enter Password' dialog box appeared when adding a password to Predefined Passwords storage.

  • Fixed the issue with the incorrect processing of filenames in the 'Save Images' action when filenames are defined in a previous action (e.g. in the 'Split/Merge Documents' action).

  • Fixed the issue with adding a redundant bookmark in the 'Split/Merge document' action when the options 'Insert blank page after document' and 'Add root bookmark with filename' are enabled. (T# 7085)
