More Efficient and Better Looking PDF files
Font embedding has been improved, including support for embedding subset
fonts—embed just those characters that have been used in the publication
in order to reduce the PDF’s file size. There’s now also support
for faux fonts—bold and italic styles in your document that have
been “faked” because there is no specific font file for the
style... where a bold or italic (or bold
italic) style is used and a font
file does not exist, PagePlus can still reproduce the style in the PDF,
as the font is converted to curves.

PDF Security
Security features are introduced with document protection and encryption.
Now PagePlus’s PDFs can be protected against copying, changing, printing,
and being added to. Additional security allows for password protection
against opening the PDF, and an additional management password control
allows changes to the levels of protection after publication!

Easier
Curve Drawing with Smart Curves
There are plenty of occasions when drawing a curve is handy in PagePlus—custom
shapes as text containers, logos and artwork, areas of subtle colour, special
flashes and buttons—and drawing your own curved shapes has become
far easier with the new Smart Curve type. Simply click on a few points
and PagePlus will automatically produce curves between them, no need to
practice with Beziers! |
