We are happy to share that now 11 PDF endpoints are planned to be added, and 2 endpoints are being optimized to dramatically transform the documents processing of our users. With these additions, we have expanded the options aimed at working with PDFs as flexibly and accurately as possible. Below, we'll explore each one of these new features and improvements:

Freshly Made PDF Endpoints

Drawing Text: Suppose you are reading through a document and want to insert comments or suggestions that pertain to certain paragraphs only. This endpoint enables one to place text boxes on PDF pages, making the app useful for annotation of documents and text formatting features such as color and size.

Drawing Images: Imagine producing a catalog, every product on which is followed by the item's photograph. With this feature, it becomes easier to add images to the PDF page, resize them as desired, and even alter the color based on the organizational or personal brand identity.

Adding Blank Pages: At times you may need to leave space at the end of a document, to either take notes, to sign or introduce extra material within the PDF format. This feature allows you to add more blank pages anywhere in the PDFs to add more content space.

Removing Pages: Imagine a large report containing redundant chapters, or information that is no longer relevant. Besides the fact that you get to eliminate such unnecessary pages and therefore rid the documents of clutter with this endpoint, document clarity and focus will also be improved.

Rotating Pages: Try to imagine scanning documents that are written, perhaps upside down, or turned sideways. With this endpoint, you can change the orientation of the pages of a PDF to the right angle, making the document more legible and functional.

Resizing Pages: Think you are working on a portfolio that requires images and text to match on pages. When you reduce or increase the size of the PDF pages, it becomes easier to create a homogeneity of the document’s layout and design.

Getting Metadata: Let’s say that you're in charge of managing the documents of your business. For instance, available metadata like keywords, encryption status, and dimensions of the page can help you to search for a document, monitor the level of file security, and check the correct classification.

Editing Metadata: Think of wanting to add the current year’s data to the yearly financial report of your company. This endpoint can perform changes in metadata like titles, authors, and subjects, thus providing regularity for all the properties of documents.

Encrypting PDFs: Think about a legal firm where files of a particular client must be shared, or a healthcare provider sent a patient’s records to another doctor. Protect precious data from being viewed by unwanted eyes by securing each document through encryption, maintaining its confidentiality and data integrity during transfer and storage.

Decrypting PDFs: Suppose that there are several members of a team working on a classified assignment. PDF decryption allows team members to open and modify the documentation as required to enable proper cooperation and data exchange within a team.

Creating Empty PDF Files: One day you must create a business portfolio to showcase one of the projects you've been developing. But before plunging into the process, you'll need a blank canvas to start with. Creating blank PDFs becomes very easy and convenient for content writing or addition.

Refined PDF Endpoints

Splitting PDFs: We have further enriched it by providing better range definitions that help in proper classification of PDF documents. This way you can divide large documents into segments for easy referencing of the document without struggling through all the information contained in the document.

Merging PDFs: The merger feature is now optimized with the allowance of choosing a specific range of pages in the PDF to merge. Therefore, it is very possible for one to consolidate reports or assemble portfolios as much as they would like.

What’s a Rich Text element?

The rich text element allows you to create and format headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, images, and video all in one place instead of having to add and format them individually. Just double-click and easily create content.

Static and dynamic content editing

A rich text element can be used with static or dynamic content. For static content, just drop it into any page and begin editing. For dynamic content, add a rich text field to any collection and then connect a rich text element to that field in the settings panel. Voila!

How to customize formatting for each rich text

Headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, figures, images, and figure captions can all be styled after a class is added to the rich text element using the "When inside of" nested selector system.
