AI Summary

This release focuses on text extraction fixes and symbol metadata exposure. It improves handling of PDF text rendering details like stroke-simulated bold and horizontal scaling, while also updating Rust and Node.js APIs to expose legacy symbol-rewrite metadata.

Key Highlights

  • Preserve stroke-simulated bold text
  • Honor horizontal text scaling
  • Recover stale single-byte font mappings
  • Expose legacy symbol-rewrite metadata in Rust and Node

Breaking Changes

  • Rust `TextItem` literals now require `legacy_symbol_rewrite: false` for items without symbol cleanup.

New Features
