- The Toolbox add-on now has a dedicated licensing page.
- The Other shell tools and SDKs category now includes labels for 4-Heights, 3-Heights, and Classic, along with an improved landing page.
- All sidebars now have better structure and clearly show nesting within the docs.
- All sidebars now include a Docs home button that leads back to the documentation landing page.
- At the top of each page, the breadcrumbs correctly display nesting within the docs.
- Additions in the PDF Viewer SDK documentation:

Changed

- All Toolbox add-on content was removed from the Pdftools SDK documentation area as it was moved to its documentation space.
Fixed
- Fixed numerous typos, broken links, misleading tags, and other issues in the Pdftools SDK, Toolbox add-on, Conversion Service, and PDF Viewer SDK documentation.
- Fixed incorrect DLL name references (
PdfToolsSdkAPI.dlltoPdfTools_Toolbox.dll) in the Toolbox add-on technical notes across all versioned docs. - Fixed incorrect API reference URLs in the Toolbox add-on technical notes, now correctly pointing to
/pdfsdkxt/endpoints with matching version numbers. - Created hundreds of redirects to the current and versioned docs of the Pdftools SDK.
