Links, data sources, IDML package links and book chapters go through
io::document_path (craft-docpath) before they reach the file system:
relative paths resolve beside the document, and paths to other computers,
devices and URLs are missing, with the reason in links.list and Preflight.
IDML and INDD packages read a linked file where its link points on this
computer, then from the link's trailing names beside the package, only
when it is a regular file up to 256 MB holding an image or a graphic. A
file URI that names a host keeps it as a network path.
Add multi-click text selection, pending caret formatting and clipboard support, text-aware colour controls, guide/grid snapping, and frame threading with loaded-port interactions.
Include the layout, drop-cap and IDML updates carried from #83, with safeguards for generated and linked stories, external text references, local IDs, locked frames and atomic colour edits.
Fixes#23.

The engine's atomic module keeps its functions and signatures and delegates to craft-libs/craft-atomic (pinned to e9546e19), so every save and export caller is unchanged. write_atomic_with also turns a panicking writer into an error, so its temporary file is removed. Recovery checkpoints and package output keep their own writers, which replace links instead of following them.
On Unix, new files follow the umask and replaced files keep their permissions.
Review fixes for text editing, paste and threading (fix84-text,
fix84-thread), the Italian/Japanese/Portuguese/Ukrainian Swatches hint
and #83's update merged into the PR branch.
Conflict: ROADMAP.md: header combines #84's threading change with next's 2026-10-11 changes; progress lines and change-log rows both (#84's 2026-10-12 first); stage line #84's (alpha ~5–7 h away)
Conflict: docs/gaps.md: #84's header text plus next's kerning/fonts/print changes
Conflict: docs/roadmap.md: next's M1 row (#186 done), #84's M2 row
Conflict: crates/engine/src/cmd/style.rs: next's side; add_to_swatches calls next's Document::rename_swatch_refs, #84's rename_in_story/rename_in dropped (next's covers text, tables, cells, notes and items); #84's test kept
Conflict: crates/idml/src/tests.rs: next's side (#84 carries #83's tests.rs, already merged in 9196a164)
Conflict: crates/tools/src/select.rs: overlays keeps next's content-move ghosts and live corners, plus #84's snapped loaded-cursor drag frame; a Place click without a drag shows nothing
Conflict: crates/ui-egui/src/i18n/it.rs: next's side (the Swatches hint entry is already further down)
Conflict: crates/engine/src/cmd/print.rs: the PR's print_with/craft_print::submit; print_with and the test's expected bytes export through next's interchange::with_pdf_boxes
Conflict: Cargo.lock: next's lock plus only craft-print (the auto-merge had moved windows-sys back to 0.59/0.60 for several crates)
Conflict: Cargo.toml: craft-print entry moved beside craft-ui with a comment
Conflict: ROADMAP.md: status Change texts combined; both progress-log lines (the PR's 2026-10-11 line under the 2026-10-12 ones)
Conflict: docs/gaps.md: status Change texts combined
Conflict: docs/hardware-parity.md: status Change texts combined
Conflict: crates/compose/src/tests.rs: tests only, both (#310's tight word spacing test, #316's GREP style test)
#316's overlay test calls overlays() with the drop_end argument next added (#83).
One shared compiler (designcraft_compose::grep) translates the GREP dialect
documents and users write: \l \u \L \U letter classes, \h \H \v \V \R \N,
\r paragraph end and \n forced line break, ~ special-character codes,
Unicode-aware POSIX classes, and literal [ & -- inside character classes.
It compiles with fancy-regex, so lookahead, lookbehind, atomic groups,
possessive quantifiers, backreferences and \K work; a backtrack limit stops
pathological patterns with an error.
GREP styles skip a pattern that fails to compile or gives up on a search,
with one log warning. Find/Change returns the error. The paragraph style
dialog validates with the same compiler. Fixes en dash (~=) mapping to an
em dash in Find/Change.
Upstream main moved 9e4f694 -> 736acff by 10 squashes: #258, #285, #153, #280, #288, #281,
#176, #299, #298, #297. New to next: #258 (datamerge test), #153 (temporary files and release
inputs), #280 (warichu), #176 (PDF image conversion cache), #297 (graphics backend before the
window). Already on next: #285, #288, #281, #299, #298.
Conflict: ROADMAP.md: next's lines; CJK1 takes main's wording (ruby unfinished, warichu set after the line is broken)
Conflict: crates/compose/src/lib.rs: list labels (#298): next's list_label structure; paragraph start / break moves: next's `go` (with #295's sub-columns) under the maintainer's #285 comment; Cursor: next's start/next_page/next_baseline with tops; line placement: #280's warichu::place right after layout_line, before next's trimmed trailing spaces and the drop cap splice (so neither is stacked and the spaces follow the closed-up end_x); caret(): next's drop-cap branch first, then #280's stacked-row metrics
Conflict: crates/compose/src/tests.rs: next's tests kept; #280's tests auto-merged
Conflict: crates/engine/src/cmd/text.rs: both (next's TypingFormat/typing_format, #280's warichu_cmd)
Conflict: crates/idml/src/tests.rs: next's side; #280's warichu round-trip test auto-merged
Conflict: crates/pdf/src/export.rs: #176's content cache and test counter with next's RasterMode (no Exporter `interpolate` field on next, so the maintainer's `mode.interpolate &= self.interpolate` is not carried); test exporter gets next's drawing_items field
Conflict: crates/ui-egui/src/canvas.rs: #280's compose::highlight_quads (its RTL branch equals next's mixed-direction spans) followed by next's drop-cap highlight
Conflict: crates/ui-egui/src/menus.rs: next's formatting_affects_text test kept
Auto-merge duplicates removed: #288's table-style tests and #298's list test in idml tests.rs,
#288's tests in doc styles.rs and #285's docx test (both files equal next's), #281's dialog
tests in dialogs.rs (equals next's) and its menu_button/menu_max_height/clipped_submenu in
menus.rs. contributors/people.toml takes main's (next had a duplicated
[people.emanuelebonaventura] table from the 9e4f694 merge, which broke the ui-egui build
script's TOML parse).
Maintainer edits carried over: #285 break characters and Next Column through one closure
(next's `go`, comment added); #281 viewport-aware menu_button in the app bar and the Paragraph
menu, per-dialog widths clamped to the window (all already on next); #280 warichu after the
last-line rules (layout_line with ends_para/forced_mid) and rules at each warichu row's
baseline (rule_baseline in render and pdf text_rules); #176 CMYK fallback through
lossless(.., mode) and its updated contract tests; #258 test fixes; #153 and #297 as landed.
InDesign documents and templates (.indd, .indt) open through File › Open,
drop, the web inbox, file.open, file.openBytes, file.openIdml and the CLI.
The engine converts them to IDML in memory with indd-utils
(github.com/aiongg/indd-utils, rev 9cf456d, MIT OR Apache-2.0, no
dependencies, builds for wasm) and imports the result through the existing
IDML path. The converter's warnings come first in the open result's
`warnings`. A file the converter can't read is an open error ("can't
convert the InDesign file: ..."), shown in the Can't Open the File alert.
Routing: a path or name ending in .indd/.indt, or bytes starting with the
INDD signature (the web inbox passes the name without its extension).
opens_as_document and the desktop and web Open dialogs list indd/indt.
Tests use synthetic bytes only: signature-bearing junk, a zero-filled
.indd and a short .indt all fail as open errors with no document added;
a dropped unreadable .indd raises the open alert.
New designcraft-pptx crate (L3) and file.exportPptx command (File ›
Export PowerPoint…, CLI --export x.pptx). Each page becomes a slide of
native objects: shapes with fills, gradients, strokes and effects,
pictures cropped like their frames, native tables, and text boxes.
Text keeps DesignCraft's composition by default: composed lines end in
line breaks, justified spacing becomes character spacing, and leading
becomes percentage line spacing (PowerPoint rounds exact spacing to
whole points; its 100% line is 1.2 em for every font). Threaded
stories split at their frames and wrapped lines get their own boxes.
lineBreaks: reflow writes one box per frame in native columns instead.
TrueType fonts are embedded as Embedded OpenType when their licences
allow. Objects PowerPoint can't represent (placed PDF/EPS, type on a
path, some effects) are rasterised through the existing
rasterize_where path.
Checked in PowerPoint for Mac and LibreOffice: on the sample magazine,
word positions match DesignCraft's PDF to within 0.8 pt horizontally
and 1.6 pt vertically.
Opening a .designcraft or .idml file from disk (file.open, file.openIdml,
book chapters, recovered documents) loads the fonts in the "Document
Fonts" folder beside it. Their faces come before installed faces of the
same family and style. The files are untrusted: at most 200 are read,
256 MB each (full CJK collections fit) and 512 MB in all; files over a
limit by their listed length are skipped unread, and damaged, oversized
and surplus files are listed in the open result's warnings. Document fonts stay
loaded for the session (the font database is process-wide).
Faces record their source (bundled, installed file, document file,
memory); font.list reports it. File > Package copies the font files the
document uses into the package's Document Fonts folder unless OS/2
fsType restricts the licence, and the report says which fonts weren't
copied and why.
- designcraft-textimport (L3): DOCX (styles by name with spacing/indents/alignment and font,
size, bold/italic/underline/strike/caps/position; runs, tabs, breaks, footnotes, tables,
hyperlink/field results; used styles only), RTF (text, paragraphs, bold/italic/underline/
strike, size, Unicode/cp1252, skipped destinations), plain text (+ tests)
- engine: file.place routes text files into the insertion point, the selected frame or a new
frame on the page; imported styles added (existing win); removeStyles; autoflow adds pages
with threaded frames until the story fits (+ test)
- app/web: Place dialogs accept .docx/.rtf/.txt/.md

New crate designcraft-pdf (L3): pages or spreads with MediaBox/TrimBox/BleedBox,
parent items with per-page folios, fills (solid + gradient swatches), aligned/dashed
strokes, corner options, opacity/blend, simple drop shadow, clipped images (JPEG
passthrough), and real text: composed glyph runs with embedded font subsets and
Unicode mapping from the story. CMYK as DeviceCMYK, RGB as DeviceRGB, spot swatches
as Separation, [Registration] as /All. Crop/bleed marks and page info. PDF/A-2b via
krilla; PDF/X-4 writes PDF 1.6 (output intent TODO).
Engine command file.exportPdf {path?, pages?, spreads?, bleed?, marks?, standard?,
compressImages?, title?, author?} (base64 when no path), CLI --export out.pdf with
--pdf-options, File > Export PDF... in the UI.
