Category: Bug fix

Hello,
the new version 7.0.1 of PDFsam Visual is out. This is a major update with two new tools, a refreshed engine and a long list of fixes.

Clean PDF pages and edit metadata

We added Clean PDF, a new task that removes metadata, XMP metadata and annotations from your PDF files in bulk. It’s a quick way to strip out information you don’t want to share before sending a document out.

Alongside it, a new Edit metadata task lets you modify a document’s properties, such as title and author, directly from the app.

Hello,
we just released the new version 4.3.0 of PDFsam Basic. We upgraded translations, bundled JDK and Sejda to their more recent versions. A number of fixes were added to Sejda but most notably we fixed:

• An issue with the Normalize page size in the Merge tool where outline and link annotation destinations may end up with wrong destination coordinates
• An issue with Tiling patterns streams that weren’t processed during the optimization process. This could lead to missing pattern resources in some cases
