Aspose development team is happy to announce the monthly release of Aspose.Words for Java 18.12. In old versions of Aspose.Words, handling of ?hide mark element? in a table cell for rendering document to fixed page format is according to MS Word 2013 behavior. Starting from Aspose.Words 18.12, it has changed this behavior and mimic MS Word 2016 behavior. In some situations, for ?continuous? and ?new column? section breaks, the behavior of MS Word 2016 is different from MS Word 2013 or an earlier version when document is converted to fixed file formats e.g. PDF, XPS. We have changed the behavior of Aspose.Words and now it mimics MS Word 2016. The behavior has changed for computing page numbers and for providing an empty facing page when adjacent pages have the same oddity. This release has added new property in MetafileRenderingOptions class to control the scaling of fonts in WMF meta-file according to meta-file size on the page when rendering document to fixed file format. This property is used only when meta-file is rendered as vector graphics. By default, Aspose.Words uses font family names from source document and writes to HTML. Starting from Aspose.Words 18.12, you can resolve and substitute fonts according to FontSettings. Aspose team has added new property to achieve this. Obsolete Property AllowTrailingWhitespaceForListItems was removed from LoadOptions Class. It has removed obsolete public API method ?SetAsDefault? from LoadOptions.LanguagePreferences in this version of Aspose.Words. There are 108 improvements and fixes in this regular monthly release, such as Java 11 compatibility is checked and updated, ExternalImageLibTest utility class added to check external image libraries on user side, Implemented WMF fonts scaling, according to metafile size on the page, and public option to control it, Improved the default font fallback mechanism to better fit the MW behavior, Optimized metafile from SVG rendering to skip redundant line segments, Fixed a bug that caused an exception when rendering metafiles filled with gradient, Fixed a bug with the order of legend items of the stacked DrawingML chart when rendering, Fixed a bug with text clipping when rendering the DrawingML charts, Fixed a bug with rendering of minor tick marks and clipping the rightmost bar of DrawingML charts, Fixed a bug with rendering data labels for points, located on the border of the DrawingML chart plot area, Implemented support for RTL comments rendering, e.g. Arabic, Improved hyphenation logic for multiple cases, Improved page numbering for sections starting in new columns, Improved table row alignment, Improved tab stop calculations with paragraph indents, Improved table breaking logic for numerous complex cases, Improved handling of character compression within mixed ltr/rtl text, Fixed exception in rare case when field update causes line to contain only zero length spans, Fixed exception in rare case when floating object is pushed beyond empty column, Fixed layout when tables merge over the hidden paragraph and more.
