Details

Changes

• Fixed: Show creation date for annotations

• Fixed: Correct raw page numbers
  Thanks go to Huwaetzel for reporting the previous issues.

• Linux fix: enforce UTF-8 for config files (0.9.8.3) Linux versions rely on Qt5, which requires UTF-8 to be set explicitly. This may affect already stored file locations with special characters.

• Changed: write logfile to OS temporary folder

• Fixed: Debug messages UTF-8 display

  • Mainly fixes debug log display of filenames with special characters (non-Qt dependent functions).
  • log OS-specific filepaths, instead of generic (Linux) ones (WIP).
  • Windows stdout logging still has issues with Asian characters (future option).

• Windows: updated libraries
  zlib was updated to 1.2.12, mainly fixing a vulnerability; and Libzip to 1.8.0.

• Minor fixes (UI, docs)
