 ====== Release Notes ======
+===== PDFtalk 2.3.5 =====
+January 2021
+I worked on extracting content from PDFs for the [[https://unsere-gelder.de/dokuwiki/doku.php|Unsere Gelder project]]. While doing this, I worked freely in the library and in the experimental code for content recognition. As always, by looking at many different PDFs, there are always some bug or things to improve in the UI.
+This messed up the base a bit and test cases were starting to fail.
+With this release, everything is clean again: the code **{PDFtalk Project}** loads without warnings or undeclareds. All tests pass (almost. See [1]).
+The same goes for the **[Report4PDF]** package. Loads clean, all tests pass.
+One functional enhancement is that text is now properly decoded for the UI. "add Picture"
+Happy hacking
+[1] There is a strange problem when one ore two tests fail in an fresh image. But only the first time. After the first run, they all pass.

 ==== CMaps ====
-Added [[CMap]] to the **{PDFtalk Fonts}** bundle.
+Added **[[CMap]]** to the **{PDFtalk Fonts}** bundle.
 **CMaps** are PostScript programs defining complex code mappings. The mechanism is very general and allows for variable byte length encodings. Because of its generality, CMaps are used by some PDF writers to even encode simple mappings. Hence, it is necessary to fully implement CMaps in order to decode PDF text.
