Barcode Recognition in WPF & Single API for Barcode Recognition & Generation

What's New in this Release?

The latest version of Aspose.BarCode for .NET6.1.0 has been released. We are pleased to announce that this new release is quite a plus for the WPF application projects because the barcode recognition in WPF has now been added. Previously, there was no way to read the codes in WPF projects. With this release, we have also shipped a separate Aspose.BarCode library for .NET Compact Framework 3.5. One more remarkable progress is about merging recognition and generation modules, now there is a single library for both APIs. Since developers also don’t need to apply license for each module. In this regard, we have removed Aspose.BarCodeRecognition.License class because no need of that. We just need to apply a license once through Aspose.BarCode.License class. We have included a number of bug fixes and improvements. It is mostly based on customer feedbacks, scenarios and earlier experience. With these fixes and improvements, of course recognition and generation techniques also get better than past. In this release, the recognition rate of various symbologies e.g. Code128 from (pdf, jpg, tiff), PDF417 from pdf, GS1Code128 from png, OneCode from JPG, DataMatrix from (png, tif), AustralianPosteParcel from GIF and Code39 from tif can be mature a little more. The partial recognition is downgraded with respect to the PLANET and POSTNET symbologies from jpg. Two fixes were about incorrect recognition so the accuracy of EAN13 and Code128 symbologies from Pdf can increase. We can now generate a DataMatrix code in a small size of JPG format. Based on this, resolution support has automatically added to BarCodeBuilder.GetCustomSizeBarCodeImage(Size, bool) and BarCodeBuilder.GetOnlyBarCodeImage() methods. These methods work as expected with taking resolution into account. Please see a complete example topic: Generate Barcode Using Custom Width  Support. Also, the appearance of Interleaved2of5 symbology is now better because no addition lines around the code. Aspose.BarCode binaries support dual signing with SHA1 & SHA2. Below is the list of new and improved features supported in this version.

• We have greatly reworked the BarCode project and now we support recognition in WPF targeted assemblies
• Aspose.BarCode API support for .NET Compact Framework 3.5

Aspose.Metafiles has been Completely Merged to Aspose.Imaging for Java 2.1.0

What’s new in this release?

Aspose development team is pleased to announce the new release Aspose.Imaging for Java 2.1.0 with all enhancements, features and bug fixes from Aspose.Imaging for .NET 2.1.0. Aspose.Metafiles for Java has now been completely merged into Aspose.Imaging for Java API with this release. Important point to note here is that Aspose will no longer be selling licenses for Aspose.Metafiles, instead we are offering richer library to meet all imaging requirements in the shape of Aspose.Imaging for Java. Existing users of Aspose.Metafiles can go through the Porting Guide to know what has been changed, and what should they do to integrate Aspose.Imaging for Java API in their existing applications. We tried our best to keep everything in tact as it was originally in Aspose.Metafiles API but we had to standardize the loading and saving mechanisms according to object model of Aspose.Imaging API. While migrating from Aspose.Metafiles to Aspose.Imaging the following facts should be taken into account:

• MetafileImage class no more contains the write method, instead a standard Aspose.Imaging approach using save method should be used as it provides the same functionality.
• MetafileImage class no more contains the static loadMetafile method, instead a standard factory method load should be used as it provides the same functionality.
• EmfMetafile and WmfMetafile classes have been renamed to EmfMetafileImage and WmfMetafileImage respectively.

Merger of Aspose.Metafiles into Aspose.Imaging for Java API has also enabled us to provide long waited Conversion of Metafiles to Raster Images. Now application developers can use Aspose.Imaging for Java API to convert EMF and WMF files to other supported image formats such as PNG, JPEG, BMP and many more.

SVG File to PDF Conversion & PDF File Size Optimization inside Java Apps

What's New in this Release?

We are pleased to announce the release of Aspose.Pdf for Java 4.6.0. This new release provides some great new features and also includes fixes to problems reported in earlier releases. Furthermore, since the first release of the auto-ported version of Aspose.Pdf for Java, the development team has been working hard to synchronize the classes and enumerations of the two siblings (Aspose.Pdf for .NET and Aspose.Pdf for Java). In this release, we have made great progress in this area by moving and adding many of the classes from Aspose.Pdf for .NET to the Aspose.Pdf for Java architecture. The complete details of these changes can be found in the documentation section about Public API Changes in Aspose.Pdf for Java 4.6.0. In this new release, we have introduced a feature that lets you convert Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG) to PDF format. In order to accomplish this requirement, we have introduced a class named SvgLoadOptions. PDF files usually contain text, images, form fields, fonts, annotations and so on, and sometime duplication of resources in a document increases the file size. To reduce the file size, remove unused and duplicate objects. Aspose.Pdf for Java offers the capability to accomplish this requirement. A PDF file is mostly comprised of text and text can have more than one font. Therefore, during PDF generation, we can set more than one font path. In earlier versions of Aspose.Pdf for Java, we had two separate documentation archives: one for the aspose.pdf package and one for the com.aspose.pdf package. From this release, we are providing a single documentation archive for all packages. The .jar is provided under javadoc folder of Aspose.Pdf for Java package. Some important new and improved features included in this release are given below

• SVG to PDF conversion
• Remove unused objects from PDF file
• Synchronize Java project with .Net project
• Establishment of a unified documentation file for the packages aspose.pdf.* and com.aspose.pdf.*
• Annotation is removed when creating NUP of PDF file
• Concurrency issue is fixed with Aspose.PDF library in image extraction from PDF files
• Splitting the PDF to pages produces same size files is now fixed
• Incorrect font name being returned
• Gif to Pdf conversion process hangs for indefinite time is now fixed
• HTML to PDF: Conversion throws AbstractMethodErro exception is resolved
• Footer now properly appear in Even pages
