SetaPDF Components Released in Version 2.402022-07-13

☀️ Summer is coming! And so a new release of all SetaPDF components.

We implemented an awesome new feature into the SetaPDF-Extractor component which let you do a full text search not only on text but on words. That means you can search by regular expressions and receiving word instances including their position and boundaries on a PDF page. Just give it a try on this updated demo.

The SetaPDF-Signer component received various tweaks and bugfixes related to edge-cases for LTV gathering. We also decoupled the dynamic appearance module from a signature module instance, so that it can be used in a more free way.

Check the release notes of the components below.
