Toolbox add-on release notes

Learn about the changes, additions and fixes of the Toolbox add-on.

The Pdf.Structure namespace has been added to the Toolbox add-on. You can use the classes and methods in this namespace to add structure information (“tags”) to the generated PDF content for use cases such as PDF accessibility. With this update, you can Tag content created using the ContentGenerator and link the content to the document’s Structure Tree. You can also create custom tags by adding them to the document’s RoleMap.
As of this update, you can determine whether a font is embedded in a PDF by checking the IsEmbedded property of the Font object.
You can now redact a rectangular area of an image using the Redact method of the Image class. This changes the content of the image so that all pixels within the defined rectangle are set to the same color.

With this update, you can set the URI for the LicensingService using the Sdk class of the Toolbox add-on. Before this fix, the default value for the LicensingService was always used.
Before this update, the Toolbox add-on sometimes could terminate unexpectedly when:
- Iterating through the Content of a Page.
- Loading the ExportName of a FieldNode.
The underlying issues were fixed. As a result, the Toolbox add-on no longer crashes in the described scenarios.

Image sampling accesses and handles the raw pixel data of an image in a sequential order without altering the resolution. This involves reading or setting the pixel values directly, often in the context of image processing or manipulation at the most detailed level. You can now get and set image samples using the Toolbox add-on. Review the Image.Samples property in the API documentation for more information.
As of this update, you can set the URL for the Licensing Service using the Sdk Class of the Toolbox add-on. This URL is used for trial licenses and page-based licenses.

It is now possible to retrieve information about a content element’s Optional Content Membership using the Toolbox add-on. Optional Content Membership is defined by Optional Content Groups (also called layers) whose state determines whether a content element is visible or invisible.
You can now retrieve the Rotation (None, Clockwise, UpsideDown, or CounterClockwise) of a page using the Toolbox add-on.

Released the Toolbox add-on, which uses the same license key as the Pdftools SDK.
