GroupDocs.Editor for .NET 22.9 Release Notes
GroupDocs.Editor for .NET version 22.9 contains a lot of new features, improvements and bug fixes compared to the previous 22.7 release. It introduces new supported formats, improved processing quality of the already supported formats, as well as other improvements and a lot of bug fixes. In GroupDocs.Editor for .NET we also added support of .NET 5.0 and dropped support of the .NET Framework 2.0
New features and improvements
Added .NET 5.0
GroupDocs.Editor for .NET version 22.9 is the first version where we’ve added support of .NET 5.0 runtime. But keep in mind, that we plan to drop .NET 5.0 in favor of .NET 6.0 in the next release, so .NET 5.0 should be considered as an intermediate step to the final .NET 6.0.
Removed .NET Framework 2.0
As it was mentioned in previous release notes, in this version we’ve dropped support of the .NET Framework 2.0. Now a GoupDocs.Editor for .NET supports 3 runtimes:
- .NET Framework 4.6.1
- .NET Standard 2.0
- .NET 5.0
If you need to use a .NET Framework version older than .NET Framework 4.6.1, please use the GroupDocs.Editor for .NET of a previous version - 22.7.
Epub support
In the GroupDocs.Editor for .NET version 22.9 we’ve added a full support of the ePub format - import, export, and auto-detection. Please read the corresponding article for details.
AZW3 and MHTML for export
In the version 22.9 we also added possibility to export documents in MHTML and AZW3 formats - now there are special save options for them.
Runtime version information
GroupDocs.Editor for .NET version 22.9 is the latest product, which is released for the platforms/runtimes .NET Framework 4.6.1, .NET Standard 2.0, and .NET 5.0.
