It’s survey time. A bit like hammer time, but not quite as exciting. But bare with me…

We’ve put together a survey to help us gain a better understanding of how you use Quick PDF Library and how you might use it in the future and we’d really like your feedback.

The survey has 10 multiple choice questions and should only take a few minutes to fill out. Here it is:

Quick PDF Library Survey

We look forward to your feedback. Thanks for your time in advance.

We’re in the process of sprucing up the site for Quick PDF Library and we’d like to add a few customer testimonials, so if you’re a happy Quick PDF customer and would like to send us a testimonial, please email me at rowan.hanna@debenu.com.

Thanks for your support!

More and more PDF files are landing in our inbox that use JBIG2 image compression. We were not planning on adding support for JBIG2 until later in the year, but due to popular demand, we’ve decided to support it much sooner.

So the next version, 7.22, will support JBIG2 compression. We should have a beta ready in 1-2 weeks. Most of the development for this feature has been done and now we’re just testing and optimizing.

If you have any PDF files that use JBIG2 compression please send them to me at rowan.hanna@debenu.com and I will add them to our repository of testing files.
