1.11 release notes

We’re excited to announce Nutrient Web SDK 1.11, focusing on reliability and accessibility improvements across comments, forms, printing, and document loading. See the full details in the changelog.

Commenting and annotation UI fixes

This release improves the commenting experience, including fixing deletion from the annotations sidebar in constrained layouts and preventing duplicate @ symbols when editing comments containing user mentions.

We also addressed several user interface (UI) issues, including signature image previews in iframe mode, dialog positioning in scrolled/offset containers, and annotation interactions in RTL mode with the sidebar open.

Accessibility and permission improvements

We fixed keyboard navigation regressions for screen readers (JAWS/NVDA) and improved keyboard access in the search UI by making the clear button focusable.

We also fixed an issue where users without permission could open the signature dialog using the keyboard, and prevented locked/read-only note annotations from being moved via keyboard and mouse wheel interactions.

Printing and conversion

Form field values are now correctly updated before print preview in situations where a field hasn’t been blurred. We also fixed convertToPdf() failing when a document is passed as an object URL.

Instant JSON and PDF fidelity fixes

Instant JSON import/export now preserves form field IDs more consistently, which helps keep subsequent exports stable after importing.

This release also includes multiple PDF fidelity fixes, including improvements to highlight geometry in tight line heights, correct handling of ligatures during text selection and highlight export, and improved automatic link extraction.
