MasterChangelog

This page contains notes about features and fixes that will be shipped in future releases. For notes on already released Prawn versions, see our regular CHANGELOG.

Keep in mind that no decisions on these changes are final until we actually cut a release, but do try out new features and fixes and tell us what you think about them!

To be released in 1.4.0 (merged in master)

All decimals in PDF output are now rounded to a fixed precision of 4 decimal places

This should improve compatibility across viewers that do not support arbitrarily long decimal numbers, without effecting practical use at all. (A PDF point is 1/72 inch, so 0.0001 PDF point is a very, very small number).

Fix text width calculation to prevent unnecessary soft hyphen
