  • Honors horizontal text scaling in extracted text.
  • Recovers stale single-byte font mappings.
  • Exposes legacy symbol-rewrite metadata in Rust and Node APIs.

Breaking Changes

  • Rust migration required: `TextItem` literals must include `legacy_symbol_rewrite: false`.
  • Node `legacySymbolRewrite` field is optional and only emitted when cleanup changed a character.

New Features

  • Stroke simulation preservation
  • Horizontal scaling support
  • Single-byte font recovery
  • Symbol metadata exposure
