document.exportSelection (the MCP export tool's `selection: true`) now
replies with `format` and the encoder's `warnings`, the same list a
whole-document export gives: lossy WebP written lossless, blend modes left
out of SVG Tiny 1.2, PDF layers at 1.4 and the rest. A selection export
that approximates nothing replies with an empty list.
Root cause: export_selection encoded with `encode`, which drops the
warnings encode_with_warnings returns, and its reply carried only path,
bytes and bounds. The params doc and docs/mcp.md now describe the reply.

compatibility "1.3" writes a %PDF-1.3 file (its XMP metadata says 1.3
too) without transparency: a copy of the document is flattened first
with flattenerPreset (stored with PDF presets; empty is High Resolution)
and the flattener options over it, see-through image pixels counting as
transparency and rasterized areas clipped to their regions so no soft
mask is needed. Page groups are left out and the writer refuses a file
that would still have transparency. PDF/X-1a and PDF/X-3 share this
path (their version is now PDF 1.3; 1.4 is still accepted and written
as 1.3), and with it the preset, the header and metadata code and the
transparency check. Passwords at PDF 1.3 encrypt with 40-bit RC4
(revision 2). The Save PDF dialog lists PDF 1.3 and picks the flattener
preset under Advanced.

The svg crate's new CSS writer (css_rules) gives the CSS web pages style objects
with: rectangles and ellipses as background-color / linear-/radial-gradient(),
border and border-radius; type as font, color, spacing and alignment; shadows,
glows and blur as box-shadow, text-shadow and filter. It shares SVG export's
declarations (transparency, fonts, type spacing, colours, gradient stops), which
moved into svg/src/css.rs. Options: units, absolute position, width and height,
unnamed objects, rasterize unsupported art (as a PNG background-image).
Commands css.selection, css.generate and css.export; UI commands css.copy and
css.exportFile; the CSS Properties panel with a highlighted code view.

Window > Asset Export lists the document's assets as thumbnails: art
dragged in off the canvas (or added with +) becomes one asset per object,
or one of them all with Alt; Object > Collect for Export does the same.
Assets name their objects, so they follow edits (moving the art moves the
crop) and deleting the art removes it from its asset. Click selects,
double-click renames, the bin removes. The panel's export settings are
Export for Screens' own format rows on the document's shared settings, and
Export writes each asset alone, cropped to its art, into a picked folder
(the web downloads a zip). Export for Screens' Assets tab lists the assets
with checkboxes and exports the checked ones.
Commands: assets.add, assets.remove, assets.rename, assets.list,
assets.export, assets.settings.set; document.exportForScreens takes
assets. Model: Document.assets (ExportAsset {id, name, nodes}).

New crates/eps (L3): a hand-written EPS writer. A DSC header with
%%BoundingBox and %%HiResBoundingBox (y up from the origin), %%LanguageLevel
and spot colours; paths filled and stroked with caps, joins, miter limits
and dashes (strokes a plain line can't draw as filled outlines, brushes as
their art), clipping groups, linear and radial gradients as smooth
shadings at Level 3 and stepped fills at Level 2 or with compatible
gradient printing, patterns as tiles, freeform gradients and placed images
as images (Flate with masked transparent pixels at Level 3, run-length at
Level 2), type as glyph outlines, spot colours as Separation spaces and
overprints when preserved; RGB written as CMYK on request. A TIFF preview
(1-bit or colour, transparent or opaque) behind the binary header, a PNG
thumbnail and the native document in comments (eps::native and
eps::thumbnail read them back for a later import).
document.export {format: eps} and document.exportEps: transparency is
flattened first with a flattener preset (built-in or saved) and options;
the visible art's bounds, or with useArtboards one file per artboard named
{stem}_{artboard}.eps. Export As lists EPS, then EPS Options
(ui.epsOptionsDialog for agents, remembered between exports).

SVG export writes UTF-8, UTF-16 (big-endian with a byte order mark) or
ISO 8859-1 (other characters as character references) and SVG/SVGZ
open in any of them. The Tiny 1.2 profile (simplified) writes
presentation attributes only and leaves out filters, masks, blend
modes and symbols with warnings. embedFonts embeds the fonts type uses
as @font-face subsets of the characters used, honouring the fonts'
fsType (whole when subsetting is forbidden, left out when embedding
is). New options: encoding, profile, embedFonts (SVG Options dialog,
document.formats); document.serialize also returns dataBase64 for
non-UTF-8 files.

document.exportForScreens takes zip: true to pack every file into one
store-only .zip (returned as dataBase64 without a folder, written there
with one); without a folder the files come back as base64. The engine's
Export for Screens moves to fileio/screens.rs, with a small ZIP writer
(fileio/zip.rs).
The dialog starts in the user's Desktop (else home, on every OS), has a
folder picker button (the Services.pick_folder the Links panel uses) and
stays open when the export fails. On the web it has no folder: OK reads
"Download" (DialogSpec.ok_label) and the files download, several as one
zip. file.exportForScreens with params goes through io::export_for_screens.

New crates/cad (L3): a hand-written ASCII DXF writer. Layers become DXF
layers (hidden: off, locked, non-printing: not plotted), straight paths
LWPOLYLINE (POLYLINE before R14), curves cubic SPLINEs through every
anchor, fills solid HATCHes (outlines in R12), strokes lines with a
lineweight and a linetype per dash pattern, type TEXT or glyph outlines,
placed images IMAGE entities linked to PNG or JPEG files. Units and
scale ($INSUNITS), scaled lineweights, 8/16/256 indexed or true colour
(420), transparency (440), Preserve Appearance / Maximize Editability,
Alter Paths for Appearance, Outline Text.
document.export {format: dxf} and document.exportDxf; useArtboards
writes one drawing per artboard; selectedOnly (any export) writes the
selection in its layers. Export As lists DXF (then DXF Options,
ui.dxfOptionsDialog for agents, remembered between exports) and DWG
greyed out; document.formats lists DWG and PICT as unsupported with a
hint, and exporting or opening them answers with it.

- WebP takes lossless and quality; there is no permissive pure-Rust lossy encoder yet, so
lossless: false writes lossless with a warning (the WebP Options dialog says so).
- document.export {format: "txt", encoding: utf8|utf16, lineEndings: lf|crlf,
selectionOnly}: the stories in stacking order (back to front), a thread once, hidden
objects and template layers left out; UTF-16 is little-endian with a byte order mark.
Export As → Text opens Text Export Options.
- File → Save for Office Documents… (document.exportForOffice {ppi, transparent, artboard,
path}): the artboard as a PNG at 72/150/300 ppi on white or transparent, through a small
dialog in the app.

document.export {format: "png8" | "gif"} reduces the art to a palette of at most `colors`
(2–256) entries: median cut over a 15-bit histogram refined by k-means (perceptual,
selective or adaptive weighting), or the web-safe, black-and-white or grey palettes; art
with that many colours or fewer keeps them exactly. Dithering is Floyd–Steinberg diffusion,
an 8×8 ordered pattern or noise, with an amount. Pixels under half opacity become one
transparent entry; partly transparent edges blend over the matte. PNG-8 is an indexed PNG
(PLTE, tRNS, 1–8 bits per pixel, Adam7); GIF is a GIF89a (optionally interlaced). Both are in
document.formats, Export As (PNG-8 / GIF Options dialogs) and Export for Screens.
document.formats' writable list and the MCP export tool's format enum gain gif and png8

document.export {format: "jpg"} takes colorModel (rgb|cmyk|gray), quality 0–100, method
(baseline|optimized|progressive), scans (3–5), embedIcc and imageMap (none|client|server).
JPEGs are written with jpeg-encoder. CMYK files hold ink amounts drawn as the renderer's ink
planes, so CMYK colours keep their inks (black type stays black ink alone). Profiles are made
in code from the CMS (cms::icc_bytes): the RGB spaces from their primaries, the CMYK spaces as
Lab lookup tables sampled from their model, a grey with sRGB's tone curve, and loaded
profiles as loaded. Image maps write <stem>.html or <stem>.map beside the image for objects
with a URL and an Image Map shape. The JPEG Options dialog gains Color Model, Quality 0–10,
Method and Scans, Image Map and Embed ICC Profile; CMYK documents default to CMYK.

Save As offers VectorCraft, VectorCraft Template, PDF, SVG and SVGZ and asks
for the chosen format's options before writing: SVG Options for SVG/SVGZ, the
Save PDF dialog for PDF (its OK finishes the save); on the web a Save As
dialog first names the file and picks the format. A document opened from or
saved as SVG/PDF remembers its format and options in one place
(DocState.format, save_options: the SVG options, or every Save PDF setting),
so Save writes it again; the result's warnings name what the format loses,
then the encoder's notes. Save a Copy writes "<name> copy.<ext>" and leaves
the path, title and modified state alone. Save is off for a clean saved
document, and Save as PDF... is in the File menu.
Engine: document.save, file.saveAs and file.saveCopy take {path?, format?,
options?, svg?} (SVG options also flat) and write linked images beside an
SVG; file.formatOptions reads a format's options. save_plan/save_with are the
one save path of every frontend, on the shared SVG encoder (one SVGZ path).
The template format is writable. Save panels get per-format filters, a folder
and a suggested name.

Preserve Editing (on in the VectorCraft Default preset) embeds the
native document in the PDF as an embedded file with a hash of the pages
it was written with. document.open of a PDF, .ai or .ait restores it
exactly (restored: true) and falls back to importing the artwork, with a
first warning saying why, when the pages were changed elsewhere or the
data can't be read; SVG and PDF share that fallback and its warnings.
The legacy drawcraft payload name is read too. vectorcraft_pdf gains
editing(), ImportReport.native and PdfOptions.native.
document.save / file.saveAs / Save a Copy write .ai (format "ai" or an
.ai path): every artboard as a PDF that always carries the document and
takes the PDF options; a restored .ai keeps its path so Save writes .ai
again, and .ait templates open their document untitled. The desktop
save dialog lists the formats Save writes. Choosing a standard turns
Preserve Editing off (PDF/A refuses it), Export for Screens and PDFs of
some artboards leave it out with a warning.

File > Export > Export As... (file.exportAs) picks any writable format and Use Artboards: All
or a range writes one file per artboard, <file>-<artboard>.<ext> (a PDF keeps them as pages);
off, the export covers the bounds of the visible art (an artless document is refused before the
save dialog). The format's options dialog follows: PNG/JPEG/WebP Options, SVG Options, or Save
PDF for artboards as pages. document.export takes useArtboards for raster formats (true: one
file per chosen artboard, default all) and PDF (false: the art's bounds), and the app's exports
return every file written and the encoder's warnings.

PNG is written by an in-code chunk writer with the resolution in pHYs and optional Adam7
interlacing (JPEG stores the resolution in JFIF). document.export takes ppi (72/150/300/other,
wins over scale), background (transparent, white, black or a colour) and antiAlias (none, art,
type: text snapped to whole pixels); Export for Screens rows take them too (plus one top-level
antiAlias, and a row's ppi names its @Nx suffix), and so does object.rasterize. Hard edges stay
hard in every offscreen pass (groups, masks, filters), whatever the thread count.
RenderOptions.anti_alias and render::encode::RasterExportOptions; PNG/JPEG/WebP Options dialog
(pngOptions/jpgOptions/webpOptions) after File > Export As PNG.

svgz is a writable format with the SVG options (document.export,
serialize, save, Export for Screens): exactly the SVG export, gzipped.
SVGZ is recognised by its extension or the gzip magic bytes and opens,
places and pastes like SVG (clipboard.importSvg takes dataBase64 of SVG
or SVGZ); Export As SVG or Save As to a .svgz name writes it
compressed. Gzip lives in the svg crate (pure-Rust flate2, builds for
wasm) and unpacking stops at 512 MB.

document.export, serialize and save, and the Save As / Save a Copy UI
commands, take the SVG options flat or as svg: {…}: styling
(presentation, style, entities, css), outlineText, images (embed or
link; linked files are written next to the SVG), objectIds (layerNames,
minimal, unique), decimals 1–7, minify, responsive, useArtboards and
range "all" (one SVG per artboard), preserveEditing (the SVG reopens as
the full document) and metadata. Unknown keys are rejected and
document.formats lists every option with its default. Results carry the
SVG writer's warnings.
Save writes SVG to an .svg path and Save again reuses its options.
Export As SVG and Save As / Save a Copy to .svg open SVG Options (first
use: Internal CSS and Responsive, then the last-used choices) with a
read-only code view. Save a Copy no longer retargets the document.

document.export and document.serialize return the encoder's warnings (PDF:
options not applied yet, features approximated or left out, overprint).
document.pdfSettings lists the options that differ from the defaults and
the warnings (includeDocument adds the active document's own from an
in-memory export); the dialog's Summary section shows both. View PDF after
Saving opens the written file as a file:// URL through Services.open_url;
the status line reports the notes. The PDF writer's raster-effects warning
now names what it leaves out (objects of a kind, fills, strokes) instead of
claiming raster effects are never exported.
