We are excited to announce the latest features and updates for our TIFF Viewer Extension and Core products, which are designed to enhance the user experience and make work more efficient and easier. Some of the key enhancements are highlighted below.

Improved User-Interface
We have polished our user interface by adding a new dropdown menu for OCR, OCR to Clipboard, OCR selected area, and OCR and Export features. This new menu helps you save time and easily convert text from your TIFF documents. Additionally, we have included brand new icons for the "Light" theme to make the user interface even more visually appealing.

Useful New Features
We have added the option for users to cancel the OCR process if needed, which can be particularly helpful for large documents. Additionally, we've introduced an exciting new feature that allows you to burn in annotations when saving a TIFF document. This means that your annotations will be permanently saved onto the document, making sharing and collaborating easier.

More Control for Administrators
We have improved the "Apply Configuration for Every User" feature for our administrators, giving them more control over the TIFF Viewer settings. This feature applies the configuration to all users, even those who are not logged into the computer. We have also added a new feature that enables you to customize the log file directory.

Enhanced Support for PDF Forms
Finally, we have improved our support for PDF Form Filling, enhancing the stability of saving PDF Forms with multi-line fields and printing PDF Forms. These updates will make working with PDF Forms even more efficient and easier.

We hope these new features will help you work more effectively and efficiently. Please don't hesitate to reach out to us if you have any questions or feedback.
