This page describes the new features added in PrizmDoc. For detailed information about these new features, please refer to PrizmDoc Online Help for details. In addition, each PrizmDoc release includes numerous customer enhancement requests, fixes, and improvements; please see the Product Updates page for detailed information.
PrizmDoc v13.4 introduces the following enhancements:
Conversion performance improvements: PrizmDoc's DCS (Document Conversion Services) have been enhanced to avoid system degradation in high-volume periods.
Enhanced resource optimization for MongoDB users: Users will see less CPU usage by the system when PrizmDoc converts large Microsoft Excel documents.
Performance improvements in conversion of Microsoft Office documents: More optimized usage of core memory enables the system to efficiently convert multiple Office documents, even in periods of heavy usage.
PrizmDoc v13.3 introduces the following new features:
PrizmDoc can now paginate and render Microsoft Excel documents while preserving the original page dimensions and margins specified in the document (matching the Page Layout rendering mode of Microsoft Excel). This is a non-default rendering option, which needs to be explicitly turned on. For more information, see Customize Excel Document View Settings to Match Rendering in PrizmDoc Cloud.
We've updated the Viewer's gulp build to produce a new viewerCustomizations.js that contains the required customization objects to instantiate the viewer control. This allows you to build the customizations once and then easily integrate them into your web app, regardless of the server-side language you're using. Previously, our Viewer samples dynamically built these objects at runtime in the particular server-side language of the sample. This approach made it hard to integrate this code into your own web application (especially if you used a language not covered by our samples). For more information, see Embed the Viewer.
We've rewritten the task scheduler inside the Office Conversion Service (OCS) to improve performance. OCS processes its requests with multiple workers that execute in parallel. There are now a larger number of workers, keeping more documents resident in memory simultaneously, while continuing to have the same amount of execution concurrency (so as to not overwhelm the server). This means that document reloading by the workers happens less frequently, gaining performance overall.
PrizmDoc v13.2 introduces the following new features:
We've added a server-side configuration option called security.htmlRendering.blockExternalContent, to control whether or not externally-referenced HTML content, such as images and iframes, will be blocked. This option affects any source document file type which uses HTML, including HTML, EML, and MSG.
PrizmDoc now supports full redaction of vector images by removing the vector content completely from the output document.
The PrizmDoc Cloud License & AWS topic has been updated to better explain this licensing option.
PrizmDoc v13.1 introduces the following new features:
PrizmDoc 13.1 now supports Document Compare feature for Linux platforms. It is important to note that the Microsoft Word document comparison feature uses the Microsoft Office Conversion (MSO) add-on option for PrizmDoc Server running on Windows and therefore requires the PrizmDoc Server running on Linux to be configured to connect to PrizmDoc Server running on Windows.
Content Conversion Service (CCS) now provides the ability to perform optical character recognition (OCR) to convert a raster file or a scanned PDF file to a searchable PDF document. The resulting PDF document will contain the original image and the recognized text in a separate invisible layer, with each text character position matching its image counterpart. This will allow you to search, select and copy the text in the resulting PDF document.
Note: The Content Conversion Service's feature that performs OCR (to convert a raster file to a searchable PDF document) does not support CentOS 6 and Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 platforms.
PrizmDoc 13.1 introduces rendering updates for the Date and Time header fields of MSG and EML files with the corresponding time zone. When an end user views emails in the PrizmDoc Viewer, they will be able to see what time zone the date and time correspond to.
WIth PrizmDoc v13.1, the PrizmDoc Accusoft Cloud-Hosted documentation has been added to the PrizmDoc help file. You can see the new updates here:
PrizmDoc v13.0 introduces the following new features:
PrizmDoc now provides the ability to compare Microsoft Word documents. Document comparison is the process of cross-checking new versions of a document against previous versions so that you can see the changes. These changes could include formatting modifications such as font or spacing changes, grammatical changes, or the addition or omission of words, sentences, clauses or paragraphs. For more information on how to use the new Document Compare functionality, refer to the following topics:
We've added a new option called Image Tools. You can manipulate document fidelity in the Viewer. For more information, review the End User Guide.
PrizmDoc now supports Ubuntu 16.04 LTS.
PrizmDoc now supports Windows Server 2016.
The Viewer has been upgraded to support native SVG icons. This will simplify replacing default icons with your own versions.
