Dad Joke Of the Release

What do you call a bee that can't make up its mind? A maybe 🤣

The Biggest Release of BentoPDF yet!

This is the biggest release of BentoPDF. BentoPDF can now edit text, image, shapes in BentoPDF and there are two new engines Kura and Hyper Compress. Detailed Explanation is below.

PDF Text Editing

BentoPDF can now edit the actual text inside a PDF. You can click any paragraph and type. Text reflows live, fonts and styling are preserved, and everything runs entirely in your browser, as always.

• Edit in place with live reflow, real font matching, and word wrap that follows the original layout
• Full styling: bold, italic, underline, strikethrough, superscript, subscript, font family and size, text colour, outline colour and width, character and line spacing
• Paragraph control: left / centre / right / justify alignment, bulleted and numbered lists with indent levels, and left-to-right and right-to-left text
• Find & replace across the document, plus spell-check with a personal dictionary and per-language switching
• Images: add, replace in place, or export a PNG, edit it in any app, and have your saved changes re import automatically
• Objects: align, distribute, rotate, flip, duplicate, and reorder front to back. Even commercial software like Apryse and Nutrient do not support this
• Accessibility: alt text for tagged PDFs, and reading-order text export
• Undo / redo, document properties, page navigation, zoom presets

This was arguably the hardest feature I had built so far. Given the complex nature of PDFs and the different ways it can be produced, you might encounter certain bugs.

Note

Local fonts access is only available on chromium based browsers such as Chrome and Edge. Other browsers have a limitation of not having the font access API.

Hyper Compress is the best open source PDF compression engine

hyper.bentopdf.com · github.com/alam00000/bentopdf-hyper-compress

Hyper is a High fidelity, content preserving PDF compressor that preserves PDF conformance.

• Monotonic: Hyper never returns a larger file. If compression does not save space, you get the original back untouched. This makes it useful for workflows so you can have a predicctable output.
• True lossless mode, with no quality loss
• Verified output: transformations that can affect visual fidelity are checked and rolled back when a page cannot be reproduced faithfully. 0.39% corruption rate, the lowest of any engine measured
• Benchmarked against Ghostscript, MuPDF and qpdf across 2,104 real-world PDFs and 27,352 engine runs, with fidelity measured by an independent renderer:

Tier	Hyper	Ghostscript	MuPDF	qpdf
Lossless	22.4% @​ SSIM 1.000	21.1% @​ 0.997	4.7% @​ 1.000	6.3% @​ 1.000
300 dpi	52.3% @​ 1.000	19.1% @​ 0.996	14.0% @​ 1.000	n/a
150 dpi	58.2% @​ 0.999	42.4% @​ 0.994	19.4% @​ 1.000	n/a
72 dpi	64.8% @​ 0.996	53.9% @​ 0.990	28.0% @​ 0.999	n/a

• Ships as a CLI, Node SDK, C API, self-hosted service, and a WebAssembly build for the browser

Kura is a PDF standards and preflight engine

kura.bentopdf.com · github.com/alam00000/bentopdf-kura

Kura turns everyday PDFs into archival, print and accessible ones, from a single engine.

• Supports every standard: all 11 PDF/A levels, PDF/UA-1 and UA-2, PDF/X-1a through X-6, PDF/E-1 and PDF/VT, plus Factur-X, ZUGFeRD, XRechnung and Order-X e-invoices
• Print preflight built in: 396 bundled profiles covering hairlines, rich black, image resolution, overprint, transparency, page boxes, fonts and colour, with repairs where a repair exists, and your own profiles in JSON or the XML dialect you already use
• Validates clean: 0 red on the veraPDF corpus, Isartor 204/204, BFO 34/34, Ghent Output Suite 5.0 69/69, PDF/UA Reference Suite 10/10, Cal Poly PDF/VT 24/24
• Proven on real files: 30,677 real-world PDFs converted, zero crashes, zero timeouts, 0.05 s median
• Also Ships as a CLI, C library, npm package, Docker image, and a WebAssembly build that runs entirely in the browser

Note

Both Kura and Hyper are not yet integrated into BentoPDF. I need to do some further tests and optimizations after which they will be ready to be integrated. However they are stable and you can try them out

A Note From Dev

Thank you so much for your continued support of BentoPDF. ❤️

Unfortunately, I broke my hand a couple of weeks ago, so this release was originally planned to include several more features, including Measurement, an Acrobat Parity Comparison Tool, Print Production, and Accessibility. I wasn't able to get them ready in time, but once I'm fully recovered, I'll be working on bringing them to BentoPDF as soon as possible.

I really look forward to hearing what you think of this release! If you run into any bugs or issues, please don't hesitate to report them.

Have a wonderful weekend, and thank you again for all your support! ❤️
