A .ai saved without PDF compatibility has only a placeholder page in
its PDF part. document.open reads such a file from its editing data,
but with `pages` given it failed with "the file holds only a
placeholder page", even for "1" on a file of one page.
When `pages` names every page of the file, document.open now reads
the editing data as it does without `pages`.

#2784 made zh-hant a language that translates every status and error message while #2930 added the shared parameter-check errors to the others; main's shared_param_check_errors_are_translated failed on zh-hant.
Preview in Browser wrote every page to one folder,
VectorCraft Save for Web in the system's temporary folder. A second
preview of a document with the same title, from the same app or from
another one running, overwrote the first preview's page, and any image
file of the same name (PNG-8 and PNG-24 both write .png), before the
browser read them. The same overwrite made
dialogs::tests_save_for_web::preview_in_browser_opens_the_page fail now
and then, when another Save for Web test in the same binary, or a test
run in another checkout on the machine, previewed Untitled-1 at the
same time.
Each preview now goes to a new folder inside that one, named after the
process id and a count of the process's previews. A name that an
earlier process with the same id left there is skipped for the next
count. The page keeps its name and its images folder. A preview first
removes the entries of VectorCraft Save for Web that were last changed
an hour ago or earlier, which also clears the files the single folder
held before.

Saving a version 7 .ai wrote the title, spot color names and gradient
names as the UTF-8 bytes of their characters: a spot color named Café
was written (Caf\303\251) in the header's custom colors and in each x.
Type and, since #2722, layer names are written in Windows-1252, the
encoding the file installs with TE.
These names now go through #2722's Windows-1252 path, so Café is
written (Caf\351). A character outside Windows-1252 is written as ?,
with one warning for all of these names. A spot color keeps one name
in the header, in each x and X and in gradient stops, and a gradient
keeps one name in its definition and in each Bg. Two spot colors or
two gradients whose names become the same that way are numbered (? 2).

An image in a .ai's editing data whose operands had no matrix, fewer
than 11 numbers, or a matrix of other than six numbers was left out
with no warning. So was one whose matrix maps it onto a line or a
point. The reader's warnings did not mention such an image, while the
reader warned "an image VectorCraft can't read was left out" for an
image whose size or bit depth it can't use.
Each of those exits now adds the same warning, as does the one where
the decoded pixels don't make an image.
A PDF or PDF-compatible .ai saved with Preserve Editing carries the
native document as an embedded file, with a hash of its pages at the
end of the file's /Desc. The import read /Desc with from_utf8_lossy and
looked for "hash ". /Desc is a PDF text string, which may be written as
UTF-16BE with a byte order mark (ISO 32000-1 7.9.2.2). Written that
way it holds no UTF-8 "hash ", so the import found no hash, took the
editing data as intact and reopened the native document with no
warning, even after another app had changed the pages.
/Desc is now read with text_string, the importer's decoder for text
strings, so the hash is found in UTF-16BE, UTF-8 and PDFDocEncoding.
Changed pages open as artwork with the "changed in another app"
warning. The embedded file's /UF and /F names are decoded the same
way, so editing data named only in UTF-16BE is found.
A /Desc without a hash is still trusted, as before.
alongtheblue-sketch took 0.12.0's version 7 output of the SVGs in #2692
and #2830, edited it by hand and opened it in the reference app
(https://github.com/storytold/vectorcraft/pull/2801#issuecomment-6244853548).
Writing the image lines as #2801 does, with the bracketed matrix and
the 60-digit data lines, did not change the result there. With one
line, F, added after %AI5_EndRaster, the reference app opened the image
in its clipping group and the art after it in both files.
The writer now writes F after every %AI5_EndRaster: clipped, grouped
and loose images, flattened images and images in pattern tiles. No path
is open at that point, so the line paints nothing. VectorCraft's reader
opens the files with the same objects as before, and the file's
PostScript prolog draws the same page.
The errors of the parameter checks that many commands share had no
@msg row in any catalog: "`{key}` must be a number, not {v}" from
check_numbers (object.move, object.rotate, object.setBounds and the
other callers), "missing integer `{key}`" from index_param in
cmd/appearance.rs (appearance, effect and freeform gradient commands),
the three object id errors of checked_ids_param and checked_id, and
the Unix seconds error of date_param. A template
matches only the whole text, so the row for "`{key}` must be a
number" did not match the longer check_numbers message. These errors
showed in English in the status bar, and "no such object id {value}"
matched the general "no such object {0}" row and showed half in
English. The scan in complete_languages_translate_every_message does
not read messages built with bad(), so that test did not report them.
Each of the 6 messages now has a row in the 18 catalogs that translate
every status and error message and in Bulgarian, Danish, Indonesian and
Dutch, and "missing number `{key}`" has a row in Danish and Indonesian.
No English string changes.

path.curvatureEdit, path.removeAnchor, path.convertAnchor,
path.reshapeSegment, path.split, path.setHandle and path.insertAnchor
read subpath as an unsigned integer and fell back to 0 for any other
value. A subpath of 1.5, -1 or "1" edited subpath 0 and the command
reported success. path.split read anchor and segment with as_u64 too
and treated any other value as absent, so a bad anchor beside a good
segment split at the segment.
These commands now refuse a subpath that is not a whole number of 0 or
more with "missing integer `subpath`", the error path.curvatureEdit,
path.removeAnchor, path.convertAnchor and path.reshapeSegment already
give for a bad anchor or segment, and path.split refuses such an anchor
or segment too. Without a subpath, or with null, they edit subpath 0 as
before. The document and the undo history stay as they were after each
error. The params text of the six commands that listed subpath as
required now marks it optional.

craft-docpath follows a network path only on the share the document is
on, and its caller contract asks for a document opened from a mapped
drive to be passed by its UNC path. fileio::document_path passed the
drive path as given, so a document opened as Z:\jobs\doc.vectorcraft
treated a link stored as \\server\share\img\logo.png, on the share
behind Z:, as on another computer: the image was missing, and
document.open, links.check and links.info gave refused: "the path is on
another computer".
On Windows, when a stored path is refused as on another computer and
the document is on a drive, document_path now reads the final path of
the document's folder (std::fs::canonicalize). When that names a share
(\\?\UNC\server\share\...), the path is checked again against the
document's path on that share. Links on other computers stay refused,
and paths that were followed resolve as before. Opening a document,
Link Info, links.check and the linked-file watch all use it. Other
systems are unchanged.

Transform Each, Rasterize, Create Object Mosaic, Create Trim Marks and
Rearrange All Artboards read their optional numbers with f64_or, which
falls back to a default for a value that is not a JSON number.
object.transformEach {"scaleH": "50"} left the selected objects at
their size and reported success. Rasterize did the same with ppi,
Create Object Mosaic did the same with width, height, spacingX and
spacingY, Create Trim Marks did the same with offset, length, bleed and
weight, and Rearrange All Artboards did the same with spacing. Crop
Image cropped to the artboard when rect was a string or another value
that is not an array.
These commands now fail with "`<key>` must be a number, not <value>"
for a value that is not a number or null, as the transform commands
do, and change nothing. Transform Each checks scaleH, scaleV, moveH,
moveV and rotate. Crop Image refuses a rect that is not an array of
four numbers with "rect must be [x, y, width, height]", the message it
already gave for an array of the wrong length; a null rect crops to the
artboard, as a missing one does.

document.pdfInfo refused PostScript (an EPS, a .ps file, or a .ai in
PostScript form), mostly with "this is a PostScript file ..., not a
PDF", although document.open and file.place read the same file
through the EPS reader as one page.
It now answers {pages: 1, needsPassword: false, pageInfo: [{width,
height, rotation: 0, boxes: {}}]}. The page is the file's bounding box
(%%HiResBoundingBox when it has one, a US Letter page without one),
read from its comments without running its program. thumbnail: 1 is a
PNG of what that page prints, read by the EPS reader without any
editing data the file carries. A program whose header is only %! is
read as PostScript, as clipboard.importEps reads it.
Docs: docs/mcp.md, docs/target-app-parity.md.
The PostScript interpreter that reads EPS and PostScript .ai files
accepts a FlateDecode or LZWDecode filter with Predictor 2 at
BitsPerComponent 1, 2, 4, 8 and 16, but undid the horizontal
differencing only at 8 bits. At the other depths the filter gave back
the stored differences, and the image drew them instead of its
samples.
The predictor is now undone at every depth it accepts, as ISO 32000-1
§7.4.4.4 describes: each component adds the same component of the
pixel to its left, within its bit width, and each row starts again.
16-bit components add as big-endian 16-bit numbers. The padding bits
at the end of a row stay as they are, and 8-bit data takes the same
path as before. The PNG predictors are unchanged.
Docs: docs/target-app-parity.md.
A compound path holds its members, so select.color passed over it and
looked at the members instead, whose paint inspect doesn't report: a
black compound path (art with holes, as PDFs bring in) never matched
"#000000". It now matches by its own fill and stroke, and its members
never do. Type without characters reads as the default character fill,
as inspect reports it (CodeRabbit on #2939).
Scripts had to know an object id before they could select art by colour
(select.same.* and select.magicWand start from one). select.color
{fill?, stroke?} takes colours as paint.setFill does and selects the
objects whose fill and stroke read as them in #rrggbb, as
document.inspect reports colours, with Select > Same's selection rules.
The label is translated in each of the 23 catalogs, which
complete_languages_translate_every_menu_string requires.
While a Type tool edited text, a click on blank canvas ended the
editing and also placed new point type at the click. Area Type and
Type on a Path did the same with a click on a path.
Such a click now only ends the editing. The typing session is
committed, empty point type that a click placed is discarded as before,
and the Type tool in use stays active; the next click makes new type.
The same applies when the editing began with a double-click from a
selection tool. A click on other type still edits it at once, and a
drag that draws an area-type frame still makes the frame.
In number fields, Up/Down and a wheel notch added a whole step and kept
the fraction, so 5.1 mm stepped up to 6.1 mm. A plain step now goes to
the next whole unit in its direction (5.1 goes up to 6 and down to 5; 5
goes up to 6 and down to 4), and a Ctrl/Cmd step goes to the next tenth,
in the field's own unit. Repeated presses or notches of one size add or
take one step each, and presses and notches are applied in the order
they came. A Shift step still adds or takes ten and keeps the fraction.
The number fields that widgets.rs draws for the panels, the Control bar
and the dialogs (unit, percent, degree and count fields) all use this
step (widgets::step_value).
`vectorcraft-cli run/convert --scale` and the MCP export tool's `scale`
are raster pixels per point, but they were passed to every export, and
DXF reads `scale` as drawing units per unit: a 2x PNG next to a DXF
doubled the drawing and left it unitless ($INSUNITS 0). They now go
only to raster formats. DXF's own scale stays reachable through the
format options.
Floating groups on the canvas now always get a panel-colour backdrop from layout geometry when egui has not registered the area yet, and panel bodies paint their own fill so empty regions do not show through.

The built-in CMYK profiles embedded in CMYK exports had only the
perceptual and colorimetric tables. ICC.1 requires an output profile to
also have the saturation tables (A2B2, B2A2) and the gamut tag (gamt).
Windows colour management rejects the profile without them ("Bitmap color
context is not valid"), so Microsoft Photos couldn't show a CMYK TIFF
that embedded it, while the RGB export opened fine.
Write the saturation tables (same as colorimetric) and a 9x9x9 gamut
table (in gamut where a Lab colour separates and returns within dE 3).

anchor_arc_distance measured every segment again for each anchor, so a reshape cost the square of the anchor count; path.reshape now measures the positions once, and the two helpers only it used are gone. The default radius stays half the subpath's bounding-box diagonal, now measured along the path: half its length reached the far corners of a square, moving art the grab is nowhere near (reshape_moves_the_grabbed_point_and_its_neighbourhood).

path.freehand takes redraw: {id, within}: the stroke's ends are placed on the path, anchors added there, and the section between them replaced by the fitted stroke, the shorter way round a closed subpath; a stroke that doesn't end on the path still draws a new one. The Pencil and Paintbrush send it for a stroke that starts on a selected path's outline away from its ends, within Edit Selected Paths' distance.
The cards turned to the chosen orientation in every category, so a portrait and a landscape A3 in Recent looked the same and both read as chosen. Only the built-in presets' cards turn now.
The marker ran from the anchor to the right edge of the bounds, so centred type showed half a line and right-aligned type none, and rotated type a level line. It now draws each line's baseline in text space (TextObject::baselines, the lines a click selects the type on), turned with the type.
style_weight reads W0–W9 style names (Hiragino, Morisawa…) as their weight classes before the English words, so SVG and CSS export write font-weight 600 for W6, and nearest-style matching weighs them too.
Font services (NexusFont, Adobe Fonts) register faces with the OS without
touching font-folder mtimes; only re-asking the platform lister sees them.
Check every two seconds as well as on window focus, and test that path churn
is detected on the system font scan.

Highlight Alternate Glyphs (8689863f) flagged any glyph that isn't its
character's cmap glyph, so the joining forms Arabic and other complex
scripts always take (init, medi, fina, isol, rlig, ccmp and the Indic
required set) covered ordinary text in pink. A glyph is now an
alternate only when required shaping alone doesn't give it: the text is
laid out again with every optional feature off (liga, clig, calt and
the features its characters turn on) and each candidate glyph compared
by cluster. The pink boxes are measured once per text geometry, only
when the preference shows them.
A group of four clip groups, each a placed image larger than its
rounded-square mask: one Selection click selects the group, which
shows the four masks' outlines and no image rectangle, with a bounding
box and bounds equal to the union of the masks. The behaviour landed
in #2650 (part of #2422); this covers the grouped case.
