See the [changelog](https://www.nutrient.io/guides/web/changelog.md#1.12.0) for full details. ### Document Editor and UI reliability Document Editor Save and Cancel actions now stay visible in constrained layouts, and the bottom UI cutoff on iPad in landscape orientation is fixed. Page navigation cursor feedback is clearer for per-spread pagination, and link popovers now expose distinct view and edit class names for easier theming. ### Commenting and annotation editing Comment links without a protocol now open as external links instead of relative URLs. Draft comments no longer override each other, and typing focus stays in the active thread when multiple drafts are open. Plain text annotations are more stable during editing, with font size persistence and bounding box sizing fixes. ### Viewer interaction and accessibility `setViewState` no longer steals focus from external elements in iframe mode, and toolbar focus no longer jumps to the last item when reentering via Tab. Additionally, screen reader arrow navigation regressions in JAWS/NVDA are fixed. ### Document processing and PDF fidelity Brotli-compressed PDFs are now supported, and PDF JavaScript actions (`OpenAction` and `pageNum`) now execute reliably. Text extraction handles typographic ligatures more accurately. Redactions and markup remain aligned after margin changes, and multipage TIFFs respect per-page orientation. Document Engine 1.5.6 or later is compatible with this release. See the [Web SDK and Document Engine compatibility requirements](https://www.nutrient.io/guides/document-engine/viewer/client-integration/web.md#version-compatibility). For a complete list of changes, bug fixes, and improvements, refer to the [changelog](https://www.nutrient.io/guides/web/changelog.md#1.12.0).
