[2022-07-27] Pipeline 9.2, with Prince 14.3

Today, we’re releasing Pipeline 9.2 with support for Prince 14.3, an upgrade to our HTML-to-PDF conversion engine. As a reminder, to avoid any breaking changes, we never automatically upgrade your documents. Existing users will need to test and upgrade to Pipeline 9.2 in order to use Prince 14.3.

You can change your default pipeline in your account settings page or via the pipeline parameter in your API calls. Using the account setting is convenient, while the API parameter lets you test individual documents before upgrading your entire account. Pipelines often contain breaking changes, so we strongly recommend reviewing the release notes and testing your documents before changing your settings.

Some of Prince 14.3’s changes include:

• Fixed bug affecting the z-index property on tables.

• Fixed bug affecting the size of blur when it is not the first filter.

• Fixed an issue where some HTML named character references must only be recognized as such when followed by a semicolon.

• Don't strip zero-width space characters in SVG.

• Speed up decoding of very large data: URLs.

• Fixed issue with table cell vertical alignment affecting KaTeX.

• Added warning for fonts with inconsistent weightClass/macStyle values.

• Fixed issue affecting OpenType positioning for some fonts like Markazi Text.

• Reordered Arabic marks correctly according to Unicode rules.

• Removed warning about the font-display property.

A full list of changes and fixes are available in Prince’s release notes.
