What’s New in this Release?

The latest version of Aspose.Pdf for .NET (7.4.0) has been released. In this release, we have introduced many new features.

Some further details regarding this feature can be found over at working with existing watermarks. A highly demanded feature, setting form fields fonts to other than the 14 core fonts, has been implemented.
