1.1 release notes

We’re pleased to announce Nutrient Web SDK 1.1, which ships with numerous fixes, performance enhancements, and UI improvements, alongside a notable API addition: PSPDFKit.build(). Refer to the changelog for full details.

New API: PSPDFKit.build()

PSPDFKit.build() performs processing via the Nutrient backend Build API.

Example usage:

PSPDFKit.build(
  // Authorize request.
  { jwt: authPayload.jwt },
  // Instructions for the processing request.
  {
    parts: [
      // Use first input as the first part of the final document.
      { file: "document" },
      // Use a sample DOCX document served from a URL as the second part of the final document.
      {
        file: {
          url:
            "https://www.nutrient.io/api/downloads/samples/docx/document.docx"
        }
      }
    ]
  },
  // Inputs required by the request. These will be uploaded with the request. The remote file served from URL does not need to be uploaded.
  [{ name: "document", content: document }]
);

Performance and UX improvements

• Enhanced memory efficiency when decoding large documents, enabling better handling of resource-intensive PDFs.

• Improved UX when selecting text from right to left, particularly with sentence-ending words.

• Callout annotation text overflow, bounding box, and arrow positioning improvements.

• Updated key dependencies: React (18.3.1) and react-intl (7.1.6).
