What's New

LEADTOOLS Highlights

Document Editing & Rendering

  • Work with large spreadsheets without the lag. SheetEditor now handles large files with noticeably smoother, faster performance.
  • Tables render more accurately in RTF, DOC, and DOCX files. Complex table layouts now display with greater fidelity, reducing formatting surprises when converting or viewing documents.
  • Correct bullet display in WordPad-created RTF files. Bullet rendering has been refined so RTF documents created or edited in WordPad display with better visual accuracy.

Recognition

  • Export barcodes as scalable SVG graphics. Generate crisp, resolution-independent barcode images for print, packaging, or any use case where quality can't degrade with scaling.
  • More reliable 1D barcode detection after resizing. Four-point detection accuracy has improved when using ResizeSmall with 1D barcodes, reducing misreads in space-constrained layouts.
  • Stronger OMR recognition on Linux. Optical Mark Recognition now delivers more consistent, reliable results in Linux environments.

Annotations

  • New round rectangle annotation type. Add rounded-corner shapes to your markup toolkit for more flexible, polished-looking annotations.
  • Sticky notes now supported on macOS and iOS. AnnStickyNoteType is now available on Apple platforms, bringing annotation parity across more devices.
  • Freehand annotations added for macOS and iOS. Freehand markup can now be selected directly on Apple platforms, closing a usability gap for annotation workflows.
