pdfHTML is an iText Core add-on for creating PDF from HTML/XML (and associated CSS).
While this release is only a patch release, it contains a few nice bug fixes and changes. First off, there’s a fix for <br/> tags where a span tag with empty content would be created instead of an Artifact in output PDFs.
It also fixes incorrect href conversion handling when setting the baseUri, and a bug where content would not be tagged as real content or an artifact after conversion.
An issue where OutlineHandler.createDefault() would overwrite an existing ID, breaking inter-document links is resolved. Finally, there’s a change to calculations for aligned content, where inaccurate free space would be calculated.
