Latest 1.8.5·September 15, 2026

Release Notes

1.8.5 improves saving, signatures, installation, and keyboard controls, and adds optional startup update checks.

Fixed

  • Completed remaining dialog and installer translations and refreshed the website guides.
  • Moved the keyboard shortcut toggle to the footer beside the online guide.
  • Evenly spaced About options, moved startup update checks to the bottom, and aligned Clear all Data with the top row.
  • Corrected WinGet release manifests to run the installer and include the required desktop runtime (#386).
  • Kept scroll and manual zoom settings independent between document tabs and restored them when reopening files (#399).
  • Kept selected-page transforms when retained pages contain inconsistent font-width metadata.
  • Standalone uninstall dialogs use the default Dark/Green theme, and installation errors use themed dialogs.
  • Localized the document page count and Italian certificate label, and included the add-bookmark row when sizing the sidebar (#394).
  • Used the destination monitor when calculating maximized client bounds during a cross-monitor move (#363).
  • Refreshed legacy PDF file associations to open the installed app instead of the installer (#393).
  • Corrected Italian translations (#395). (Thanks @bovirus)
  • Restored saving markup to tagged PDFs while preserving their structure, and finished markup processing before overwriting the destination.

Added

  • Added startup update checks, enabled by default, with confirmation before updating and a shared toggle in About and the update dialog.
  • Added Ctrl+R and Ctrl+Shift+R to rotate selected pages clockwise and counterclockwise.
  • Added a keyboard shortcut toggle with an always-available Ctrl+Shift+K recovery chord (#405).
  • Added page size selection with current-page, Letter, A4, Legal, and custom dimensions when inserting blank pages (#400).
  • Added Open Containing Folder to document tab menus (#399).
  • Added a --batch-render command that renders pages of a file or tree to PNG with a per-page timing log.
