Repeat Tab on a paragraph's first tab stop spaced the copies by the
stop's distance from the ruler's 0. The reference app measures that
distance from the paragraph's left indent. With a left indent of 20 pt
and one stop at 50 pt, the copies were 50 pt apart instead of 30.
Repeat Tab now spaces the copies of the first stop by its distance
from the left indent of the paragraph whose stops the Tabs panel
shows: the paragraph the caret is in while the Type tool edits text,
otherwise the first paragraph of the first selected type object. A
stop left of the indent repeats at its distance from the indent: a
stop at 5 pt in a paragraph indented 20 pt repeats every 15 pt. The
reference app's help page does not cover this case, so this follows
VectorCraft's own rule. The copies of a later stop are still spaced by
its distance from the stop before it, and the limits of 20 copies and
2,000 pt stay.

File › Place set every justified paragraph (`\qj`) of an RTF file as
Justify with last line aligned left, so a right-to-left paragraph
(`\rtlpar`) ended its last line on the left. Such a paragraph now
places as Justify with last line aligned right, in either order of the
two control words. `\qj` in a left-to-right paragraph still places as
Justify with last line aligned left, and `\ql`, `\qr`, `\qc` and `\qd`
keep their alignments in both directions.
With crop "bounding", file.place measured the placed art by each
object's visual bounds, which include the hidden members of a group.
A group holding a 40 pt square and a hidden 170 x 42 pt rectangle was
measured as 251 x 123 pt: at, rect, the place cursor and
file.place.info all used that box. A group whose only part on the page
or artboard was a hidden member was also placed, and symbol instances
were measured as a 20 pt square.
The art's box now follows the rule exports use
(vectorcraft_render::encode::drawn_bounds, made public): hidden
objects, guides and template layers do not count; the reach of effects
such as a drop shadow now counts; symbol instances are measured by
their art. The same rule picks the objects on the page or artboard.
Hidden objects on the page or artboard are still placed, and stay
hidden. Replace and the width and height that file.place answers also
measure symbol instances by their art.
Docs: docs/mcp.md (Place), docs/target-app-parity.md.
When a drop shadow or an outer glow follows Effect › Rasterize, the
renderer makes the Rasterize image on the first draw and keeps it for
the shadow and the content, which draw it again. The kept image held no
count of the images that failed to decode while it was made. With a
blur or a filter after the shadow, the content's raster was made from
the kept image and recorded no failure, so a renderer that drew the
object again took the shadow and the content from its caches and
counted nothing. Pattern tiles are drawn by a renderer that keeps these
rasters across exports: a tile drawn again with the same art, for
example after Pattern Options changes the overlap, gave an export
without the "couldn't be decoded" warning although the picture lacked
the image.
The kept Rasterize image now stores how many decodes failed while it
was made, and each draw from it adds that number to the count again, as
kept effect rasters and pattern tiles do.
When the PDF writer keeps a PNG, GIF or WebP image as it is, it accepts
the image once its header reads, and it reports pixel data that it
can't decode only when it finishes the file. An image whose pixel data
was cut short or damaged therefore failed the whole export with "PDF
writer error: Image(...)", and nothing was written. This happened in
Save as PDF, .ai saves, Save a Copy, Print, Export for Screens and
native files with PDF compatibility, and with On Copy: PDF turned on,
Copy left the PDF off the clipboard.
When the writer fails on an image's pixel data, the export now runs
again with that image left out. Its warnings hold the note that raster
exports give, once: "an image couldn't be decoded and is missing from
the picture". This note replaces the writer's "image '<key>' could not
be decoded and was skipped", which named the image by an internal key.
An export without such an image runs once, as before. A .ai file keeps
the image in its editing data and reopens with it.

A version 7 .ai wrote each image's matrix as [a b c d tx ty] and its
samples on comment lines of 64 hex digits. The Adobe Illustrator File
Format Specification version 7.0, which the writer follows, writes the
matrix with a space inside each bracket in the XI syntax (section 8.1)
and in all five examples (section 8.4), and every example data line
holds 60 hex digits. #2692 reports that the reference app leaves out an
image inside a clipping group, and all the art after it, in the files
written from the reporter's two SVGs.
The writer now writes [ a b c d tx ty ] and data lines of 60 hex digits
(the last holds the rest), for every image it writes. VectorCraft's
reader and the file's PostScript prolog read both forms. The result was
not checked in the reference app.
The version 7 .ai writer wrote a radial gradient's highlight (Bh) only
when the gradient had a focal point off its center. A centered radial
gradient, such as an SVG radialGradient without fx and fy, was written
Bb, Bg, f, BB with no Bh. Every radial instance in the Adobe Illustrator File
Format Specification version 7.0, which the writer follows, has one,
0 0 0 0 Bh for a centered highlight (sections 3.5.5, 3.5.6 and 9.3).
#2687 reports that the reference app draws such a circle in its outer
color.
The writer now writes Bh in every radial instance, 0 0 0 0 Bh at the
center. A focal point past the radius, which an elliptical gradient
written circular can have, is written on the circle, so its x and y
offsets agree with the fraction 1 written after them (section 3.5.5).
Linear instances are unchanged. The result was not checked in the
reference app.
Saving a version 7 .ai expands raster effects into images and flattens
images with see-through pixels, opacity or a blending mode, and both
draw the art with the renderer. An image the renderer couldn't decode
drew nothing, so it was missing from the result, and the reply carried
no note. A semi-transparent image cut short was removed without one.
The save now compares decode_failures() before and after it writes the
artboards, as Expand Appearance and the raster exports do, and adds
"an image couldn't be decoded and is missing from the picture" to its
warnings once.

When a .ai or EPS file opens from its editing data, the import left
out the page's type that no text object owns whenever the regions of
the text objects made from the text document covered at least half of
it, without comparing letters. The region of point type reaches its
longest line's length in characters times its size, plus its size, to
the left and right, and one and a half times its size above and below.
A 21-character line at 10 pt reaches 220 pt to each side. The page's
other type inside that box was lost.
Now the region of a made text object counts toward that half only
when its story has the Latin letters and digits of one of the type's
pieces, compared without case, and only when such stories between
them have the letters of every piece. Only those text objects count
as drawn by the page. The check that decides whether the text
document is trusted still counts every region.
Docs: docs/target-app-parity.md.
When the editing data of an EPS or .ai file was for a page of another
size than the file's own page, the file opened as its page or its PDF
part with the reason "its editing data is for a different page". The
reason did not say which page the editing data was for, or that it was
the same page at another scale.
The reason now gives both sizes in points: "its editing data is for a
600 × 400 pt page, not the file's 612 × 792 pt page". When the two
pages are in proportion (within the 0.5 pt per side of the check), it
gives the scale of the editing data's page to the file's instead:
"its editing data is for a 100 × 100 pt page, the file's
1000 × 1000 pt page at 1:10". Every catalog that had the old reason
has rows for both new ones.
Docs: docs/mcp.md, docs/target-app-parity.md.
A PDF-compatible .ai, or a PDF saved with the editing data, whose
editing data can't be decompressed (damaged zlib or Zstandard data, or
data that decompresses to more than 256 MB) opened from its PDF part
with no note about its layers. layered_ai returned on the
decompression error without a note. Data that decompresses to layers
that can't be read gets one, and so does an EPS.
layered_ai now gives the same note with the decompression error as
its reason: "the file's layers weren't read from its editing data (its
zlib compression is damaged): they come from its PDF part". The note
counts as a loss, so document.export or Save As over a PDF saved with
the editing data asks first (acknowledgeLoss), as it already did for
a .ai. The three reasons have rows in the 17 catalogs that translate
every message.
Docs: docs/mcp.md, docs/target-app-parity.md.
The layers of PDF and PDF-compatible .ai files come from their
optional content groups, whose /Name is a PDF text string. The import
read a name without a byte order mark as Latin-1. Such a string is
PDFDocEncoding (ISO 32000-1 Annex D, Table D.2), which differs from
Latin-1 at 0x18 to 0x1F and 0x80 to 0xA0. A group named
(Art\205final) opened as a layer named "Art", U+0085, "final" instead
of "Art–final", and curly double quotes (0x8D, 0x8E) and the euro sign
(0xA0) became control characters and a no-break space.
text_string now reads such a string with the PDFDocEncoding table that
File Info already used for the document information dictionary. The
table moves from file_info.rs to import_scan.rs, and File Info reads
the information dictionary's strings with text_string.
When a PDF, PDF-compatible .ai or .ait opens, crates/pdf/src/file_info.rs
reads its File Info from the XMP packet with roxmltree, which parses
nested elements recursively and has no limit on their depth. A packet
with elements nested 10,000 deep (70 KB) overflowed a 1 MB stack, and
one nested 100,000 deep (700 KB) overflowed an 8 MB stack. A stack
overflow aborts the app.
File Info now counts how deep the packet's elements nest before roxmltree
parses it, and leaves out a packet nested more than 256 deep, as it
leaves out a packet that is not XML. The document information
dictionary then gives the File Info.
The MCP server's reader queues at most 64 lines for the engine and
stops reading past that until the engine catches up. The reply to a
line that is not JSON, or that is longer than the line limit, skipped
that check: while a call had run for less than the busy limit (two
seconds by default), or while the engine was behind, every such line
added a reply to the queue. In the new test, 192 lines that are not
JSON leave 192 replies queued on main.
These replies now wait for room as requests do, and still go out at
once when the running call has passed the busy limit.
SVG import checks each linked image's path with craft-docpath, and two
of its results were wrong, most visibly on Windows. A missing image's
link kept the path that craft-docpath returned, with its separators
rewritten: an href of /abs/photo.png became \abs\photo.png on Windows,
and SVG export with linked images writes that back as the href. A
folder that is not absolute, such as /tmp on Windows or a relative
folder on any system, made each relative href, and on Windows each
href rooted without a drive, resolve to a path that is not absolute,
so those images were not read. Two vectorcraft-svg tests failed on
Windows because of this.
A link now keeps the href as written (decoded) when the href resolves
to the same path without the SVG's folder, and keeps the path found
when it needs the folder: a relative path, or on Windows a path rooted
without a drive. A file: URL keeps the path it names. The folder is
made absolute against the working directory when it is not, as the
engine's reader does with the document's path. Hrefs that were refused
are still refused: paths on other computers, devices and URLs are not
read.
0.13.0's macOS release job failed twice at `stapler validate` right after a successful notarization
and staple: the CloudKit ticket lookup lost its connection (NSURLErrorDomain -1005, Error 68). Retry
the validate up to four times with a growing pause; a missing or bad ticket still fails.

The FreeBSD job failed complete_languages_translate_every_message: zh-hans was
missing the four Links and Attributes messages this branch adds.
The merge created a state neither side had. This branch predates main adding
zh-hans to COMPLETE_MESSAGES, so its new messages had no Simplified Chinese; the
other 17 languages conflicted and were resolved as a union, while zh-hans merged
cleanly and silently without them. da, id, nl and zh-hant are also missing them
but are not on the completeness list, so they are left as they are.
Terminology follows the file's own: 编辑原稿 for Edit Original, 浏览器 for
browser, 不是文件 after {path} 不是文件夹. These want a native speaker's eye
before release; the test only proves the strings exist.
