prefs.set (application) and document.preferences (units, increments, grids; undoable).
Scaling applies to content: paths and placed graphics take the scale, stroke weights follow
with Include Stroke Weight. X/Y/W/H and transform.set measure the stroke's outer edge.
The command palette becomes Quick Apply and lists styles.

- 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

- engine::recovery: unsaved documents written to a recovery folder (atomic write + metadata),
reopened as unsaved documents that remember their files; entries dropped on save/close
(+ tests); file.recovery.list/save/open, file.revert, file.saveACopy (+ test)
- app: recovery folder per platform, recovered on launch with a status message; UI writes
recovery data every 30 s while documents are unsaved; File › Save a Copy…, Revert
- parity: recovery, revert, save a copy done

- engine: guide.add/move/delete/deleteAll/list, layout.createGuides (rows/columns with gutters,
margins or page) (+ test)
- UI: drag a guide out of either ruler (page guide, or spread guide on the pasteboard), drag one
with the selection tools to move it, drop it on a ruler to delete it; spread guides cross the
pasteboard; Layout › Create Guides…, View › Grids & Guides › Delete All Guides on Spread
- fix: the Contextual Task Bar called is_pointer_over_egui inside ctx.input — a deadlock that
froze the app while dragging with a selection
- ui_shot injects synthetic input (ui.click/ui.drag/ui.key now work offscreen)

- doc: OBJECT_MARK with Story::objects (items normalized to the origin) kept in sync on edits,
copy/paste slices and threading
- compose: inline objects are wide glyphs sitting on the baseline (Y offset; auto leading grows);
above-line objects push their line down; placements per frame follow vertical justification
- render + PDF draw anchored items with their lines
- engine: anchored.insert/options/release/list; pasting copied items into text anchors them;
Options/Release act on the object at the insertion point (+ test)
- Object › Anchored Object menu

- doc: INDEX_MARK with Story::index_refs kept in sync (topics 1–4 levels, sort keys, current
page / to end of story / next n paragraphs / suppressed / See / See also); index builder with
section headings, nested or run-in entries, merged page ranges; Document::index for updates
- engine: index.addReference (topic from the selection), index.list, index.generate, index.update
with Index Title / Section Head / Level 1–4 styles (+ tests)
- IDML: PageReference markers and the Index topic tree with See / See also cross-references,
both ways (verified in InDesign 2026)
- Layout › Index menu

- doc: ANCHOR_MARK / XREF_MARK with Story::anchors / xrefs kept in sync on edits, 11 formats
(InDesign's building blocks + partial paragraph), paragraph anchors, typographic quotes
- compose: anchor pages via an XrefIndex (cached per document signature); cross-references are
resolved at composition, so they never go stale; '??' for missing destinations
- PDF: cross-references become link annotations to the destination page
- IDML: export/import as HyperlinkTextDestination / CrossReferenceSource / Hyperlink /
CrossReferenceFormat (+ XRef page variables); verified live in InDesign 2026
- engine: xref.insert/list/setFormat/defineFormat/formats, anchor.create/list (+ tests)
- UI: New Cross-Reference dialog (styles → paragraphs, format); menu pass adding TOC, sections,
text variables, hyperlinks, footnotes, step and repeat, spelling, fitting/content submenus,
effects, Data Merge, Preflight, EPUB; fixed-parameter menu variants; ui.menu.invoke opens
generated dialogs; every-menu-entry-is-a-command test

- doc: FOOTNOTE_REF marker + Story::notes (kept in sync on insert/delete/thread), FootnoteOptions,
NumberStyle::Symbols, footnote text addressed like cell text (CellAddr::footnote)
- compose: notes numbered (continuous / restart per page, spread, section), composed at column
width, body text makes room, stacked at the column bottom with the rule above
- render + PDF draw footnote text; IDML export/import in InDesign's structure (verified in
InDesign 2026), FootnoteOption preferences
- engine: footnote.insert/options/list/setText/delete/goToReference (+ tests)
- UI: caret/selection in footnote text, Footnote Options dialog, Type menu entries; menu items
labelled '…' with parameters open a dialog generated from the command's params doc
- sample magazine carries a footnote

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.
