FyPDFs · Changelog
What's changed, month by month.
Written from the history of FyPDFs' own code — the studio, its engine and the cloud runners — newest first.
The log
Newest first.
Studio is the tools you use; Cloud is the server side; Site is this website.

- Site
A new fypdfs.com
Every page rebuilt: each of the 28 tools now has a page with its real settings, what it does and doesn't do, and where it runs.

Cloud jobs run as file jobs
Cloud tools now send the file to a job that reports its progress and hands the result back when it's done.
- Studio
One engine for every surface
The PDF engine is built once and shared by everywhere FyPDFs runs, so a fix lands everywhere at once.

PDF to Word and Excel on a server
The two conversions moved to a server that rebuilds lines, paragraphs and table rows from where the words sit — and reads scans with OCR first.
- Cloud
Protect uses qpdf
Passwords and permissions are now set by qpdf, with AES-256, AES-128 or RC4-128.
- Studio
Images to PDF takes GIF and BMP
Along with JPG, PNG and WebP.

The new studio

fypdfs.com opens
FyPDFs got a home of its own, with the studio at fypdfs.com/app.

The cloud tools arrive
