Category: New release

We just release new versions for both, Visual and Basic. These are maintenance releases where we upgraded the Java runtime to its latest version, upgraded the PDF engine and fixed few bugs.

We just released the new PDFsam Basic 4.1.2. The main goal for this release was to provide a notarized .dmg package for MacOS so we did that (and it wasn’t really straightforward). We also upgraded Sejda and SAMBox, the underlying PDF engines, to their latest versions. We fixed few bugs in there and we improved the merge of AcroForms in some edge cases.
You can get it from the download page.
Enjoy!

Hi,
we just released the new PDFsam Visual. In this version we updated the PDF engine with few bug fixes and improvements, we fixed an issue in Merge and Alternate Mix with encrypted files, we added a new checkbox to the Extract Pages to let the task generate separate files for each selected page set. We also finally notarized the MacOS .dmg so that Catalina doesn’t scare the users away anymore.
As usual you can get it from the download page.
Enjoy!
