We are excited to announce a new release of Aspose.PDF for .NET 18.10 which is available for download on NuGet Gallery and to be used in .NET applications. As per the regular monthly update process, we have incorporated new features and enhancements in the API, as well as several fixes to the reported bugs, which have also been included in the latest release. Before using the latest version of the API, we strongly recommend you visit the release notes page of Aspose.PDF for .NET 18.10 in order to know what has been changed and introduced new in the API.
The following section provides insights into worth mentioning features that have been introduced in the latest release of the API.
Support for Link Annotation in Tagged PDF
The latest version of the API has been released with the support of Link Annotation in Tagged PDFs. This support includes various functionalities i.e. adding tagged content with link tag, adding decorated link text content and get rectangles that bounds link content. We have been working over providing full support for creating Tagged PDF content and hopefully new features would also be a part of the next release.
PDF/UA Validations
Some validations for PDF/UA Format of PDF documents have also been implemented in the latest release of the API as follows:
- XObjects Validations
- Actions Validations
Determine if Text has Underline
In order to determine if the text has underlined, the getter for Underline property of TextState of TextFragment has been implemented. However, in the case Underline property was not previously set (the typical situation for searching text in an existing document) following option should be set:
textFragmentAbsorber.TextEditOptions = new TextEditOptions(true)
{
ToAttemptGetUnderlineFromSource = true
};There are several serious reasons for using the above option because explicit instruction must be set for searching underlines in the document. As implementation of text underlining is not described in PDF specification, it means a great number of ways exist how text underlining may be implemented in third party documents. Therefore, we cannot give warranties that the underlining of text will be found in all cases in the source document.

- Tooltips for WebHyperlink have been improved to show correct behavior
