Added an Interface to Flexibly Format Field Result

We have implemented a more generic and flexible solution to format field result. We have added an interface IFieldResultFormatter in Aspose.Words 17.4 allowing to implement custom formatting of field’s result. Now, you can apply formatting to numeric and date/time field result. Please read the following article for more detail:

Added Feature to Set Horizontal and Vertical Resolution of Output Image

Previously it was one property ImageSaveOptions.Resolution that set both vertical and horizontal resolution to the same values. We have added new public properties HorizontalResolution and VerticalResolution in ImageSaveOptions class to set horizontal and vertical resolution of output image. Please refer to the following article:

/// <summary>
/// Gets or sets the horizontal resolution for the generated images, in dots per inch.
/// </summary>
/// <remarks>
/// <para>This property has effect only when saving to raster image formats.</para>
/// <p>The default value is 96.</p>
/// </remarks>
public float HorizontalResolution {get;set;}

public float VerticalResolution {get;set;}

Please note that ImageSaveOptions.Resolution property became write-only.
