Hello,
we released version 7.0.2 of PDFsam Visual. The Clean PDF task can now remove the Producer and Creator properties independently, instead of clearing them together with the rest of the document metadata.
The Edit metadata task has now custom properties: you can add new custom metadata entries to a PDF or delete the ones already in the document.
We upgraded Electron and the PDF engine
Enjoy!
Download the new version from the PDFsam Visual download page.
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.
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.
Hi everybody,
I just released the new version of basic and enhanced PDFsam. In this version almost all the libraries have been updates, 6 bugs have been fixed, the new pdf document metadata module has been added to the enhanced version (this module can be used to set pdf metadata like author, title, etc..) and some feature request has been implemented (DnD support on *nix systems, save/restore of the GUI settings when closing/opening PDFsam and saving the environment will save informations about the selected plugin).
I also created a thumbnails generation library using ICEpdf. This library can be plugged and used as thumbnails generation engine instead of the default JPodRenderer generation library.
The Mac OS dmg distribution will be ready soon.
Hi everybody,
more than 2 months have passed since the last release but the next one is almost ready. With the next version all the enhanced users will have a new module to set pdf metadata (Title, Author..). For both basic and enhanced I spent some time implementing requests about the user interface like drag and drop support on Linux, save and load environments that saves and restores the selected module and finally, after many requests since the beginning of this project, the user interface will be restored every time you open/close PDFsam, this means the main window size, position, the 2 split panels and the selected plugin.
I want to really thank all those users who supported PDFsam (fortunately a lot) with money, ideas, suggestions, emails etc… you keep me working on it with enthusiasm.
