--- title: "What's New?" canonical: https://www.graphicsmill.com/docs/gm/whats-new.htm product: "Graphics Mill" --- # What's New? ## Version 12.1.17 - Released October 14, 2026 ### New Features - Added [PdfReader.CompressedImageThreshold](https://www.graphicsmill.com/docs/gm/P_Aurigma_GraphicsMill_Codecs_PdfReader_CompressedImageThreshold.htm.md). Images larger than this size are kept in temporary files instead of in memory when you call [PdfFrame.GetContent()](https://www.graphicsmill.com/docs/gm/M_Aurigma_GraphicsMill_Codecs_PdfFrame_GetContent.htm.md). - Added support for drop shadows of shape layers to [PsdProcessor](https://www.graphicsmill.com/docs/gm/T_Aurigma_GraphicsMill_Templates_PsdProcessor.htm.md). ### General Improvements - Reduced the memory used to read PDF files. - Improved the quality of [TilingBrush](https://www.graphicsmill.com/docs/gm/T_Aurigma_GraphicsMill_Drawing_TilingBrush.htm.md) with a rotated or scaled tile. Its edges are now smooth. - Improved the speed of [Histogram](https://www.graphicsmill.com/docs/gm/T_Aurigma_GraphicsMill_Histogram.htm.md) calculation. - Improved **PsdProcessor** to apply the opacity, blend mode, and layer mask of layer groups, including nested groups. - Improved **PsdProcessor** to keep text, shape, and PDF smart object layers with a layer mask or clipping mask as vector content in PDF files. Before, such layers were converted to raster images. ### Bug Fixes - Fixed an issue where a CMYK JPEG image was decoded when it was read from a PDF file. Now the image is read without decompression. - Fixed an issue where the thumbnail in the EXIF metadata was not changed by lossless JPEG flip, rotate, transpose, and crop operations. - Fixed an issue where IPTC and EXIF text saved in a single-byte code page, such as Windows-1252, was read with replacement characters instead of the original text. - Fixed an issue where EXIF values of the byte type, such as **GPSVersionID**, were read as control characters instead of a list of numbers. - Fixed an issue where a positive amount of [Brightness](https://www.graphicsmill.com/docs/gm/T_Aurigma_GraphicsMill_Transforms_Brightness.htm.md) made CMYK images darker instead of lighter. - Fixed an issue where an image with an alpha channel and a resolution below 72 DPI was clipped on the top and right sides when it was written to a PDF file. - Fixed an issue where the transparency of a PNG image with an alpha channel was lost when [CompressedImage](https://www.graphicsmill.com/docs/gm/T_Aurigma_GraphicsMill_CompressedImage.htm.md) created from it was written to a PDF file. - Fixed an issue where nested [GraphicsContainer](https://www.graphicsmill.com/docs/gm/T_Aurigma_GraphicsMill_Drawing_GraphicsContainer.htm.md) content with a resolution different from its parent was blurred or cropped. - Fixed an issue where a rotated image drawn with [Graphics](https://www.graphicsmill.com/docs/gm/T_Aurigma_GraphicsMill_Drawing_Graphics.htm.md) was one pixel larger on every side. - Fixed an issue where drawing an 8bppIndexed image on a 32bppRgb bitmap threw **UnsupportedPixelFormatException**. - Fixed an issue where drawing an image or a tiling brush on a bitmap with the spot pixel format threw an exception. - Fixed an issue where [Rotate](https://www.graphicsmill.com/docs/gm/T_Aurigma_GraphicsMill_Transforms_Rotate.htm.md) left background pixels along the edge of the image when the image was processed in several stripes. - Fixed an issue where [Flip](https://www.graphicsmill.com/docs/gm/T_Aurigma_GraphicsMill_Transforms_Flip.htm.md) threw an exception for the spot pixel formats. - Fixed an access violation in **Flip** that happened with indexed images processed in several stripes. - Fixed an issue where [Shadow](https://www.graphicsmill.com/docs/gm/T_Aurigma_GraphicsMill_Transforms_Shadow.htm.md) never finished for images with an alpha channel. - Fixed an issue where [SmartBlur](https://www.graphicsmill.com/docs/gm/T_Aurigma_GraphicsMill_Transforms_SmartBlur.htm.md) threw an exception for some heights of the processed stripes. - Fixed an issue where **PsdProcessor** ignored clipping masks if no callback was set. A layer with both a layer mask and a clipping mask now uses both masks. - Fixed an issue where **PsdProcessor** applied a layer mask twice if [PsdProcessor.FrameCallback](https://www.graphicsmill.com/docs/gm/P_Aurigma_GraphicsMill_Templates_PsdProcessor_FrameCallback.htm.md) or [PsdProcessor.ShapeCallback](https://www.graphicsmill.com/docs/gm/P_Aurigma_GraphicsMill_Templates_PsdProcessor_ShapeCallback.htm.md) was set. The soft edges of such layers were too dark. - Fixed an issue where a layer was clipped only by the vector mask of its parent group. Now the vector masks of all enclosing groups are applied. - Fixed an issue where a layer group with a vector mask was hidden completely. - Fixed an issue where [PsdFrameExtensions.ToGraphicsContainer(PsdFrame, FontRegistry)](https://www.graphicsmill.com/docs/gm/M_Aurigma_GraphicsMill_Templates_PsdFrameExtensions_ToGraphicsContainer_2_2c52f535.htm.md) drew text layers as plain text, without character and paragraph formatting, drop shadow, and stroke. - Fixed an issue where [PsdProcessor.Render(PsdReader, GraphicsContainer)](https://www.graphicsmill.com/docs/gm/M_Aurigma_GraphicsMill_Templates_PsdProcessor_Render_2_53bedbc1.htm.md) processed empty frames and passed them to the frame callback. - Fixed an exception in **PsdProcessor** when [PsdProcessor.StringCallback](https://www.graphicsmill.com/docs/gm/P_Aurigma_GraphicsMill_Templates_PsdProcessor_StringCallback.htm.md) returned an empty string. - Fixed an issue where each [ShapeData](https://www.graphicsmill.com/docs/gm/T_Aurigma_GraphicsMill_Templates_ShapeData.htm.md) created for the same shape layer reduced the opacity of its stroke again. - Fixed an issue where [PsdProcessor.Render(String, String)](https://www.graphicsmill.com/docs/gm/M_Aurigma_GraphicsMill_Templates_PsdProcessor_Render_2_f3570541.htm.md) kept the end of the old file when the output file already existed and was larger. - Fixed an issue where the formatted text of a PSD text layer had a duplicate underline setting, and its numbers were formatted differently on .NET Framework and .NET 9. ### Other - Updated the third-party libraries: libpng, libtiff, libjpeg-turbo, libwebp, LittleCMS, FreeType, HarfBuzz, ICU, LibRaw, and others. ## Version 12.1.10 - Released October 1, 2026 ### Major Feature Highlights - **.NET 9 support** - the `Aurigma.GraphicsMill.Core.x64` and `Aurigma.GraphicsMill.Core.x86` NuGet packages now include a `net9.0-windows7.0` build next to the existing `net472` build. The .NET 9 build runs on Windows only. ### Deprecation - **SoftMask property type change** - [Graphics.SoftMask](https://www.graphicsmill.com/docs/gm/P_Aurigma_GraphicsMill_Drawing_Graphics_SoftMask.htm.md) and [Item.SoftMask](https://www.graphicsmill.com/docs/gm/P_Aurigma_GraphicsMill_Drawing_Item_SoftMask.htm.md) now have the type [SoftMask](https://www.graphicsmill.com/docs/gm/T_Aurigma_GraphicsMill_Drawing_SoftMask.htm.md) instead of **GraphicsContainer**. Code that assigns a **GraphicsContainer** to these properties keeps working, because of an implicit conversion. Code that reads them must use [SoftMask.Mask](https://www.graphicsmill.com/docs/gm/P_Aurigma_GraphicsMill_Drawing_SoftMask_Mask.htm.md) to get the container. ### New Features - Added the **SoftMask** class. Its [SoftMask.Method](https://www.graphicsmill.com/docs/gm/P_Aurigma_GraphicsMill_Drawing_SoftMask_Method.htm.md) property selects how the mask is applied, and it takes a value of [SoftMaskMethod](https://www.graphicsmill.com/docs/gm/T_Aurigma_GraphicsMill_Drawing_SoftMaskMethod.htm.md). With **Luminosity**, the brightness of the mask content sets the opacity. With **Alpha**, the alpha channel of the mask content sets the opacity. The [SoftMask.Backdrop](https://www.graphicsmill.com/docs/gm/P_Aurigma_GraphicsMill_Drawing_SoftMask_Backdrop.htm.md) property sets the backdrop luminosity for a **Luminosity** mask, a value from 0 to 1. Both settings are written to PDF output and read back from PDF files. - Added [PdfFrame.UserUnit](https://www.graphicsmill.com/docs/gm/P_Aurigma_GraphicsMill_Codecs_PdfFrame_UserUnit.htm.md), which returns the size of one PDF user space unit in 1/72 inch. - Added support for reading and writing PDF files larger than 4 GB. ### General Improvements - Improved the speed of filling shapes with linear gradient, radial gradient, and tiling brushes when the shape extends far beyond the bitmap. This is common in soft masks read from PDF files. - Improved PDF reading. Soft masks with the alpha type or with a backdrop are now read correctly, and vector soft mask content stays vector instead of being converted to a raster image. Converting PDF to PDF is up to 1.3 times faster for documents with soft masks. - Improved [CompressedImage.CreateFromFile(String)](https://www.graphicsmill.com/docs/gm/M_Aurigma_GraphicsMill_CompressedImage_CreateFromFile_1_bb3a7a4f.htm.md) and [CompressedImage.CreateFromStream(Stream)](https://www.graphicsmill.com/docs/gm/M_Aurigma_GraphicsMill_CompressedImage_CreateFromStream_1_bca7c9fe.htm.md) to keep the encoded bytes of a CMYK JPEG source as is. Before, such a source was decoded and compressed again. When the image is drawn to a PDF document, the JPEG data is now embedded without recompression and the colors stay unchanged. - Improved the performance of the internal streams used for large data. Converting PDF to PDF is up to 4.5 times faster for documents with large images. ### Bug Fixes - Fixed an issue where [PdfReader](https://www.graphicsmill.com/docs/gm/T_Aurigma_GraphicsMill_Codecs_PdfReader.htm.md) ignored the `/UserUnit` value of a page. Pages larger than 14400 points, such as oversized pages written by [PdfWriter](https://www.graphicsmill.com/docs/gm/T_Aurigma_GraphicsMill_Codecs_PdfWriter.htm.md), were read at a reduced size. - Fixed an issue where a single PDF stream larger than 2 GB was written incorrectly. - Fixed an issue where a hairline drawn with an extreme scale transformation in a PDF file was shifted after the file was read and saved again. - Fixed an access violation in [Bitmap.FromClipboard()](https://www.graphicsmill.com/docs/gm/M_Aurigma_GraphicsMill_Bitmap_FromClipboard.htm.md) when the clipboard contained no image, for example when it contained text. - Fixed an issue where anti-aliased edge pixels of shapes drawn on grayscale bitmaps were too dark. ## Version 12.1.3 - Released September 17, 2026 ### Major Feature Highlights - **Font registry redesign** - [CustomFontRegistry](https://www.graphicsmill.com/docs/gm/T_Aurigma_GraphicsMill_Drawing_CustomFontRegistry.htm.md) now reports the outcome of every font addition through [FontAddResult](https://www.graphicsmill.com/docs/gm/T_Aurigma_GraphicsMill_Drawing_FontAddResult.htm.md), and its collision handling is configurable via [PostscriptNameCollisionPolicy](https://www.graphicsmill.com/docs/gm/T_Aurigma_GraphicsMill_Drawing_PostscriptNameCollisionPolicy.htm.md) and [FamilyStyleCollisionPolicy](https://www.graphicsmill.com/docs/gm/T_Aurigma_GraphicsMill_Drawing_FamilyStyleCollisionPolicy.htm.md). Added [CustomFontRegistry.Merge](https://www.graphicsmill.com/docs/gm/O_T_Aurigma_GraphicsMill_Drawing_CustomFontRegistry_Merge.htm.md) for combining registries, [CustomFontRegistry.Remove(String)](https://www.graphicsmill.com/docs/gm/M_Aurigma_GraphicsMill_Drawing_CustomFontRegistry_Remove_1_bb3a7a4f.htm.md), and [CustomFontRegistry.AddFontAlias(String, String)](https://www.graphicsmill.com/docs/gm/M_Aurigma_GraphicsMill_Drawing_CustomFontRegistry_AddFontAlias_2_f3570541.htm.md)/[CustomFontRegistry.RemoveFontAlias(String, String)](https://www.graphicsmill.com/docs/gm/M_Aurigma_GraphicsMill_Drawing_CustomFontRegistry_RemoveFontAlias_2_f3570541.htm.md) for attaching extra lookup names to an already-registered font; [FontInfo.Aliases](https://www.graphicsmill.com/docs/gm/P_Aurigma_GraphicsMill_Drawing_FontInfo_Aliases.htm.md) exposes the aliases added this way. See [Working with Font Registry](https://www.graphicsmill.com/docs/gm/working-with-font-registry.htm.md) for details. ### Deprecation - **CustomFontRegistry.Add signature change** - the [CustomFontRegistry.Add](https://www.graphicsmill.com/docs/gm/O_T_Aurigma_GraphicsMill_Drawing_CustomFontRegistry_Add.htm.md) overloads now return a collection of **FontAddResult** objects, one for each font in the file, instead of `string`. Read [FontAddResult.PostscriptName](https://www.graphicsmill.com/docs/gm/P_Aurigma_GraphicsMill_Drawing_FontAddResult_PostscriptName.htm.md) of a result to get the postscript name. The **CustomFontRegistry(FontRegistry)** copy constructor has been removed - use **new CustomFontRegistry()** followed by **CustomFontRegistry.Merge** instead. - **FontMissingEventArgs property rename** - **FontMissingEventArgs.FontName** has been renamed to [FontMissingEventArgs.PostscriptName](https://www.graphicsmill.com/docs/gm/P_Aurigma_GraphicsMill_Drawing_FontMissingEventArgs_PostscriptName.htm.md). ### New Features - Added [CompressionType.Png](https://www.graphicsmill.com/docs/gm/T_Aurigma_GraphicsMill_Codecs_CompressionType.htm.md). - Added **CompressedImage.CreateFromFile(String)** and **CompressedImage.CreateFromStream(Stream)** overloads that keep an existing PNG or JPEG source's encoded bytes as is instead of decoding and recompressing them. - Added soft mask writing to SVG output. - Added [FontRegistry.TryGetPostscriptName(String, String, String@)](https://www.graphicsmill.com/docs/gm/M_Aurigma_GraphicsMill_Drawing_FontRegistry_TryGetPostscriptName_3_bbad2053.htm.md), a non-throwing family/style-to-postscript-name lookup. ### General Improvements - Improved SVG output to reuse repeated graphics container content through ``/``, producing smaller files. - Improved SVG output to embed existing JPEG-compressed image content directly instead of decoding and re-encoding it. - Improved [FontRegistry.Installed](https://www.graphicsmill.com/docs/gm/P_Aurigma_GraphicsMill_Drawing_FontRegistry_Installed.htm.md) to build the installed-font list lazily on first access instead of unconditionally at startup. - Improved font lookup and text rendering performance: the font registry now finds fonts through indexes instead of scanning all fonts, and parsed font data and glyph caches are shared instead of being created again. ### Bug Fixes - Fixed soft mask placement for Form XObjects whose bounding box extends outside the page. - Fixed incorrect sizing and clipping of nested **GraphicsContainer** content when a container's declared size did not match its actual content bounds. - Fixed a stale DPI value being used after changing a bitmap's resolution after its **Graphics** was already created. - Fixed an issue where a rotated tiling brush lost its rotation when written to SVG. - Fixed an issue where ICC profiles were not trimmed to their declared size before writing to PNG, causing write failures. - Fixed several exceptions, including [FontMissingException](https://www.graphicsmill.com/docs/gm/T_Aurigma_GraphicsMill_FontMissingException.htm.md) and [UnsupportedFontException](https://www.graphicsmill.com/docs/gm/T_Aurigma_GraphicsMill_UnsupportedFontException.htm.md), that showed a bare value instead of a descriptive message. - Fixed an issue where image masks with an inverted decode array lost their color when a PDF file was read and saved again. - Fixed an issue where PDF files larger than 2 GB were written and read with incorrect object offsets. - Fixed an issue where the **SvgWriter(Stream, Int32, Int32)** constructor wrote an incorrect `width` attribute to SVG output. - Fixed an issue where the **EpsWriter(String, Int32, Int32)** and **EpsWriter(Stream, Int32, Int32)** constructors produced an incorrect bounding box and horizontal scaling in EPS output. - Fixed an issue where the destination file of an image writer stayed locked after a failed write. ## Version 12.0.10 - Released August 24, 2026 ### New Features - Added support for reading 32-bit float pixel formats from PSD files. ### Bug Fixes - Fixed an issue where clipping paths were not properly read from PDF for mesh shadings (Coons, tensor, and free-form Gouraud). - Fixed an issue where PDF delimiter characters in name objects were not escaped. - Fixed an issue where the `` element was not handled correctly inside `
  • ` elements, including `
      `/`
        ` list items. - Fixed an issue where tab positions ignored the copy-fitting text scale. - Fixed an issue where lossless JPEG transforms could produce oversized output. ## Version 12.0.8 - Released August 5, 2026 ### Major Feature Highlights - **Licensing updates** - added the **Floating** license type for containerized environments (e.g., Docker), and Desktop licenses now use strong-name (public key token) binding instead of file-name binding. These changes don't break existing license keys. See [Licensing](https://www.graphicsmill.com/docs/gm/licensing.htm.md) for details. - Added support for **PDF/VT**. - **PdfPage class** - introduced [PdfPage](https://www.graphicsmill.com/docs/gm/working-with-pdf.htm.md) for **PdfWriter**, replacing a large set of overloaded **AddPage** methods with a single class describing page size and PDF boxes. - **Compressed images** - added the [CompressedImage](https://www.graphicsmill.com/docs/gm/compressed-image.htm.md) class, a new image type that stores raster data in compressed form, giving more control over how images are handled when reading and writing PDF content. - **Soft masks** - added [soft mask support](https://www.graphicsmill.com/docs/gm/graphics.htm.md) to **Graphics** for representing variable opacity as a graphics container; in PDF output, soft masks are written as native PDF objects without rasterization. ### New Features - Added the ability to apply a license key via the **GRAPHICSMILL\_LICENSE\_KEY** environment variable. - Added optional usage telemetry for **Developer** and **Floating** license keys; other key types send no data. Disable it via the [GraphicsMillEnableTelemetry](https://www.graphicsmill.com/docs/gm/graphics-mill-configuration.htm.md) setting. - Added the [GraphicsContainer.Walk(Item, ContainerItem})](https://www.graphicsmill.com/docs/gm/M_Aurigma_GraphicsMill_Drawing_GraphicsContainer_Walk_2_c421dad5.htm.md) method for recursively traversing the items of a **GraphicsContainer**; the callback receives each item and its parent container item. ### Deprecation - **Namespace rename** - the **AdvancedDrawing** namespace has been renamed to [Aurigma.GraphicsMill.Drawing](https://www.graphicsmill.com/docs/gm/N_Aurigma_GraphicsMill_Drawing.htm.md). For migration details, see the [Drawing documentation](https://www.graphicsmill.com/docs/gm/advanced-drawing.htm.md). - **Legacy Drawing namespace removed** - the old GDI-based **Drawing** namespace has been removed, along with **Bitmap.GetGraphics()** and **Bitmap.GetGdiPlusGraphics()**. **Bitmap.GetAdvancedGraphics()** has been renamed to **Bitmap.GetGraphics()**. See [Breaking Changes](https://www.graphicsmill.com/docs/gm/breaking-changes.htm.md) for migration details. - Removed the **RedEyeRemoval** transform and related classes. - Removed the License Manager tool.
