- Use `HAVE_GLUT ?= yes' instead of `HAVE_GLUT := yes' in patch-ab:
in that way possible `MAKE_ENV+= HAVE_GLUT=no' in options.mk is honored
(in 1.15.0 update this could lead to building and installing mupdf-gl
and failing due PLIST mismatch despite `opengl' option was not
set.)

* Full page color tinting option in mupdf-gl.
* Show/hide table of contents sections.
* Trigger a reload with sighup.
* Toggle spot color mode with 'e'.

mutool run docs/examples/pdf-dejpx.js -- decompress JPEG2000 images in PDF document.
mutool run docs/examples/fix-s22pdf.js -- fix fonts in documents generated by S22PDF.
Significant API changes:
* New and improved forms API.
* Renamed -DNO_ICC to -DFZ_ENABLE_ICC=0
* Removed fz_annot superclass. Use pdf_annot and pdf_widget directly instead.
* Annotations and Widgets now have separate enumerators.
* Added optional separations argument to pixmap rendering utility functions.
Various cleanups:
Per-function documentation comments moved to the source file.
Hopefully they will stay up to date more often than when they
were hidden away in the header file.
Removed unused internal testing tools: mjsgen and jstest.
Removed TGA output support. Use one of the more common and useful PAM,
PNM, PNG, or TIFF formats instead.
Removed support for PDF portfolios. This work-in-progress feature was
never completed, and only worked for a small subset of files.
Removed support for progressive loading. This rarely used feature added
a lot of complexity and was an unending source of bugs and strange
behaviour. Removing this feature has allowed us to clean up and
simplify large amounts of code, and fix dozens of bugs in one fell
swoop.
pkgsrc changes:
- Pass USE_SYSTEM_LIBS=yes via MAKE_ENV in order to honor system (pkgsrc)
packages {C,LD}FLAGS
- Rewrite the logic to disable lcms2 in patch-ab and inject -DNO_ICC
directly via CFLAGS
Changes:
MuPDF 1.14.0
------------
* New features:
* Added "Source Han Serif" CJK fallback font.
* Added more scripts to the Noto fallback fonts.
* Multi-page PNM support.
* "mutool show" now supports a path syntax for selecting objects to show.
* Build system simplifications:
* Auto-generated CMap, ICC, and JS source files are checked in to git.
* Embedded CMap resources are now generated by a python script.
* Embedded font resources are linked directly if using GNU ld or windows.
* Namegen tool replaced by use of C macros.
* Simplified Makefile.
* Annotation editing:
* New annotation editing mode in mupdf-gl.
* Can create, edit, and delete most annotation types.
* Can create appearance streams for most annotation types.
* Can create appearance streams for Tx form fields.
* Can create appearance streams for Ch form fields.
* Form filling in mupdf-gl:
* Can click buttons, checkboxes, and radioboxes.
* Can fill out text fields using dialog box.
* Can select choice options using dialog box.
* Can verify and sign digital signatures.
* Improved UI for mupdf-gl:
* Password dialog.
* Error dialog.
* Open/save file dialog.
* Snap selection to words or lines by holding control or control+shift.
* Save and restore current location, bookmarks, and navigation history.
* Bug fixes:
* Improved CJK character fallback handling in EPUB.
* API changes:
* Pass rectangle and matrix structs by value.
* Replaced PDF_NAME_Xxx macros with PDF_NAME(Xxx).
* Added PDF_TRUE, PDF_FALSE, and PDF_NULL constant pdf_obj* macros.
* Added helper functions: pdf_dict_get_int, etc.
* Removed 'doc' argument in pdf_new_int, etc.
* Quads instead of rects when highlighting and searching text.
* mutool run: Pass arguments to script in scriptArgs global.
pkgsrc changes:
- Directly override VERSION in files/mupdf.pc in the post-build phase
(to avoid an extra manual step for every mupdf update)
- Get rid of OPJ_STATIC patch hunk in patches/patch-source_fitz_load-jpx.c (it
is no more needed, because the `-DOPJ_STATIC' is now passed in Makefile-s
when the bundled openjpeg is used).
- Pass HAVE_LIBCRYPTO=no to avoid requiring openssl>=1.1.0.
Changes:
1.13.0
------
* This is primarily a bugfix release.
* New "mutool sign" tool for showing and verifying digital signatures.
* Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Cyrillic, and Greek font support in mutool create.
* Improvements to annotation editing API.
pkgsrc changes:
- Add support for the `opengl' option via graphics/glut and remove the `glfw'
option to follow upstream changes. Adjust options.mk and buildlink3.mk
accordingly.
- Add patches/patch-platform_gl_gl-app.h to not force freeglut GLUT
implementation to every non-APPLE platforms (glut also works!) and adjust the
glut.h include.
- Add a commented out lcms2 bl3 inclusion entry, lcms2>=2.9 is needed (due
"lcms2art.h" et al. inclusion, so disable it for now)
- Explain the OPJ_STATIC comment in patches/patch-source_fitz_load-jpx.c
a bit more in depth... ...this will hopefully save some time to
debug opj_* undefined symbols when trying to link libmupdf and
accidently omitting the patches/patch-source_fitz_load-jpx.c
hunk (for extra debugging stories fun, if OPJ_STATIC is defined
some opj_* symbols are defined while others are not defined,
making the debugging of that problem more naughty!).
- Inject HAVE_{CURL,GLUT} variables via MAKE_ENV in options.mk to avoid
depending on www/curl and graphics/glut (yes, that's a bit kludgy
but unfortunately mupdf doesn't have a configure and so there
isn't a more sensible way to do it). This is needed to avoid
building mupdf-gl for native X.org where the glut.pc pkg-config
file is available at build time. Also adjust patches/patch-ab
accordingly.
- Remove patches/patch-CVE*, they are no longer needed (all applied in 1.12.0)
- Bump BUILDLINK_API_DEPENDS.mupdf to 1.12.0 (there were several API changes
from 1.11 to 1.12.0) and remove the now redundant and no longer needed
BUILDLINK_ABI_DEPENDS.mupdf.

=============================================================================
Notes on updating mupdf to mupdf-1.3 (maybe useful for future updates too)
* mupdf-1.3 depends on openjpeg-2.0 (previously mupdf-1.1 depended on
openjpeg-1.5). ${WRKSRC}/Makerules is NOT correct and still looks for
openjpeg-1.5 so patches/patch-ab was modified in order to fix this
behaviour. Please also note the SUBST.makerules class in Makefile.
* mupdf should be build with "build=release" (the default is "build=debug" and
that may be indesiderable for the common user).
* In order to completely disable the building of third party libraries (it is
better to use the ones provided/handled by pkgsrc) a brutal ${RM} -fr completely
remove the ${WRKSRC}/thirdparty directory. For more information please read
${WRKSRC}/Makethird and the post-extract target in Makefile.
* ${WRKSRC}/docs/thirdparty.txt may help for adding correct version of the
dependencies.
* To add libcurl support (www/curl) patches/patch-Makethird was introduced and
patches/patch-ab was modified in order to use pkg-config for
$(SYS_CURL_CFLAGS) and $(SYS_CURL_LIBS).
* By default now mupdf install different binaries, e.g. mupdf-x11 (previous it
was just "mupdf"), mupdf-x11-curl, etc.. In pkgsrc we install *only* the
featureful version of mupdf simply as "mupdf". For more information please
give a look to patches/patch-ac.
=============================================================================

bugfixes and optimisations
MuPDF 1.0 (2012-04-24)
The 1.0 release is here!
MuPDF 1.0 RC1 (2012-03-29)
The 1.0 release rapidly approaches! This version brings with it a whole host of features, including:
Removal of all global variables: we now pass a context pointer
through the code freeing us from the use of globals within the
library.
Multi-threaded operation: while MuPDF does not require a thread
library, hooks are in place so that if one is used, significant
speedups can be gained from using multiple cores to render.
New error handling: a portable exception-like system is used
to allow neater handling of errors. This leads to more stability
and better resilience to broken files.
Public/Private API: the API has undergone a significant revision
(required by some of the above changes, plus renaming/revising
for clarity and consistency), and has been split into public
and private headers. The plan is that the public portion of
the API should remain much more static in future.
Improved Text Extraction device: a cleaner API to the experimental
text extraction device, offering a list of styles, and more
cleanly delineated content.
Documentation: All public header entry points/structures are
now documented and overviews of how to call the library to
render pages both in single and multi-threaded mode are given.
A new scavenging memory manager; makes much better use of the
memory available by freeing cached items 'just in time'.
Many, many, bugfixes.
This is such a large and significant version that we're doing a
release candidate first to allow us to correct any obvious bugs
that are found. Please try it and let us know how you get on!
no changelog available, at least some security fixes were done:
-fix possible memory corruption due to malformed JPEG images
(was patched in pkgsrc)
-fix (at least) 2 cases of integer overflow in array allocation (SA42320)
