AI Summary
Fixes critical font decoding issues that caused multi-byte strings to be lost and Type1 fonts to render incorrectly.
Key Highlights
- Read simple fonts one byte per code to fix kerned runs like 'Income Statement'.
- Read Type1 fonts via built-in encoding to support TeX ligatures and symbols.
- Require stronger evidence before applying repaired ToUnicode CMaps.
New Features
- Fixes for kerned string extraction
- Type1 font encoding support
- Improved ToUnicode repair logic
Full Release Notes
Changes since 1.25.0: - Read simple fonts (Type1, TrueType, Type3) one byte per code when their ToUnicode CMap declares a two-byte codespace: text shown as a kerned run of short strings no longer loses every two-byte string (`Income Statement` read as `Iometatent`). The stale-CMap check for Type1 fonts judges such a CMap too, and the page detector counts such a font's text byte by byte (#595). - Read a Type1 font whose `/Encoding` names no base encoding through the built-in encoding of its embedded program (PDF 32000-1:2008, Table 114): TeX's fonts read their ligatures (`efficiency`, was `eciency`), curly quotes, dashes and math symbols. A code the program leaves at `.notdef` reads as nothing, the word space excepted, and the base-14 width fallback measures such fonts as they read (#596). - Take a repaired ToUnicode CMap for a string of one or two glyphs only on evidence beyond short common words: `engagement` no longer reads as `engageaent`, `AND` as `ANa` or `Three` as `ThaTe` (#597). No API changes. Release preparation: #604. [Full changelog](https://github.com/firecrawl/pdf-inspector/compare/v1.25.0...v1.25.1)
