PageDesk 0.30.0 release notes
PageDesk 0.30.0 — October 26, 2026 New: photo cleanup for image-only pages; nested bookmarks; additional Word export modes; guided redaction suggestions; resumable batch processing; and page protection during compression. Existing printing/scanning and navigation stabilization remain included. Original-text editing is available as an experimental tool in Markups. It supports one native text run and refuses unsupported fonts, characters or layouts. It is not paragraph reflow or editing words in a scanned photograph. Add Text remains available for adding new text. Photo cleanup refuses pages containing native text, forms or annotations to avoid flattening existing edits. Suggested page corners need review. Redaction suggestions can miss sensitive information. Inspect each match and review the entire resulting PDF before sharing. The redacted copy flattens all pages and removes searchable text and interactive forms. Keep a separate original. Editable Word exports do not guarantee identical layout. Appearance-only export creates page images rather than editable text. Compression protects selected pages and shared images; this can prevent a requested output size being reached. Batch job records contain file paths, hashes and processing settings. Protect the job folder. Completed files must remain unchanged for resume verification; changed input files need a new job. Re-select a stamp when resuming a stamp job. Updating: close PageDesk, back up important PDFs and signature images, and run the new Windows installer. This direct installer uses the existing PageDesk profile. The separate Development preview keeps its own settings. This release passed 389 automated tests during acceptance, packaged-app checks, and isolated Windows install/upgrade/uninstall tests. Office printing/scanning acceptance was carried forward because those core modules are unchanged. Compatibility still depends on your document, device and Windows driver. One-time price remains $49.99 USD for one user. Updates made available for the purchased major release remain subject to the existing license terms.
