-Release Notes -- Apache PDFBox -- Version 1.7.0
+Release Notes -- Apache PDFBox -- Version 1.7.1
Introduction
------------
The Apache PDFBox library is an open source Java tool for working with PDF documents.
-This is an incremental feature release based on the earlier 1.x releases.
-This release contains many improvements and fixes especially related to
-performance, resource usage and rendering. The most significant
-new feature is the new non sequential parser.
+This is an incremental bugfix release based on the earlier 1.7.0 release.
This version also includes the new PDF/A preflight module. Due to some unfinished
refactoring we decided to release them source only. Uncomment the commented entries
in the reactor pom to build your own jars.
-For more details on these changes and all the other fixes and improvements
-included in this release, please refer to the following issues on the
-PDFBox issue tracker at https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX.
