  • Version 0.8.08 released

    I am pleased to announce version 0.8.08 is now available. This version features a complete rewrite of the backend IO to randomly access data from the server. It is now possible to browse to any page in a bundled document without downloading the whole file. The in memory file cache has been reduced to less than 4MB, so out of memory errors are less likely with the newer version.

    For those writing code, the new version of the API uses two classes for IO. A special InputStream, and an Enumerator. Hopefully, people will find this new IO model easier to use than the old one.

  • Version 0.8.06 released

    This version adds book mode displays, keyboard shortcuts, and open to search. Note: Book mode should not be used for huge documents like newpapers and maps as it will exhaust the memory available in the jvm.

  • Version 0.8.05 released

    The main improvements are:
    1. Correction of update bug when viewing hidden text.
    2. Improved annotation support.
    3. Navigates directories when used as a standalone viewer.

    If you are not using hidden text, annotations, or the standalone browser there is no need to update from version 0.8.04.

  • Version 0.8.04 is released

    I am pleased to report this new version is both faster and more stable than any of the prior builds.

    Naturally, the browser plug-in is still faster. However, the gap has been significantly reduced. Many of the algorithms ported from C++ have now been optimized for Java and both multithreads and caching are used to enhance the user experience.

    I strongly recommend updating websites to the newer version.
