Public API and backward incompatible changes

  1. Removed obsolete HideComments property from PresentationLoadOptions; replaced with the more flexible CommentsPosition property for controlling comment visibility.
  2. Removed obsolete HideComments property from SpreadsheetLoadOptions; superseded by the PrintComments property to manage comment printing behavior.
  3. Introduced font substitution options in EmailLoadOptions via new DefaultFont and FontSubstitutes properties. These settings will only take effect when converting to target formats that support font substitution.
