Foxit PDF SDK v11.1 Release Date: 31 March 2026
==================================================================
## Breaking Changes
The following changes require code updates when upgrading from v11.0. Existing projects that use these APIs will not compile or may behave differently without modification.
### `ActionCallback` — Parameter change and new pure virtual methods
The `ActionCallback` class has **1 parameter change** and **7 new pure virtual methods**. Any subclass must be updated.
**Parameter change** — `GetPageWindowRect` now requires `document` and `page_index` parameters:
```cpp
// v11.0
virtual RectF GetPageWindowRect() = 0;
// v11.1
virtual RectF GetPageWindowRect(const foxit::pdf::PDFDoc document, int page_index) = 0;
```
**New pure virtual methods** — implement with empty bodies if the functionality is not needed:
```cpp
virtual void NotifyBeginDoJob(const pdf::PDFDoc document,
jаvascriptModifyItemInfo::jаvascriptEventType event_type) = 0;
virtual void NotifyAfterDataChange(const pdf::PDFDoc document,
jаvascriptModifyItemInfo modify_item_info) = 0;
virtual void NotifyEndDoJob(const pdf::PDFDoc document,
jаvascriptModifyItemInfo::jаvascriptEventType event_type) = 0;
virtual bool InitModifyItem(const pdf::PDFDoc document,
ModifyItemType item_type, int page_index, const WString dict_name) = 0;
virtual void ResetModifyItem(const pdf::PDFDoc document) = 0;
virtual int GetVisiblePageCount(const pdf::PDFDoc document) = 0;
virtual int GetVisiblePage(const pdf::PDFDoc document, int index) = 0;
```
### `DocProviderCallback` — New pure virtual method (XFA)
A new pure virtual method is added. Subclasses of `DocProviderCallback` must implement it:
```cpp
virtual void NotifyWidgetChangeInfo(const XFADoc doc, XFAWidgetModifyInfo change_info) = 0;
```
This only affects projects that use the XFA module. Implement with an empty body if not needed.
### `IconProviderCallback::GetIcon` — Parameter change (silent)
The `GetIcon` method has changed. This is **not** a pure virtual, so compilation will succeed, but existing overrides will **silently stop being called**:
```cpp
// v11.0
virtual PDFPage GetIcon(Annot::Type annot_type, const char* icon_name, ARGB color);
// v11.1
virtual PDFPage GetIcon(Annot::Type annot_type, const char* icon_name, ARGB color,
foxit::pdf::objects::PDFDictionary* annot_dict);
```
**Action required:** Update the override to include the new `annot_dict` parameter. Enable `-Woverloaded-virtual` (GCC/Clang) or `/W4` (MSVC) to detect this at compile time.
### `OCRCallback` — New pure virtual method
A new pure virtual method `IsImageIgnored` is added to the existing `OCRCallback` class:
```cpp
// v11.0
class OCRCallback {
virtual bool NeedToCancelNow(const wchar_t* info) = 0;
};
// v11.1
class OCRCallback {
virtual bool NeedToCancelNow(const wchar_t* info) = 0;
virtual bool IsImageIgnored(foxit::pdf::graphics::ImageObject* image_object) = 0; // NEW
};
```
**Action required:** All subclasses of `OCRCallback` must implement `IsImageIgnored`. Return `false` to preserve previous behavior (no images ignored).
### `OCRConfig` constructor and `Set()` — Parameter change
The parameterized constructor and `Set()` method gained 3 new required parameters:
```cpp
// v11.0 (5 parameters)
OCRConfig(bool is_detect_pictures, bool is_remove_noise, bool is_correct_skew,
bool is_enable_text_extraction_mode, bool is_sequentially_process);
// v11.1 (8 parameters)
OCRConfig(bool is_detect_pictures, bool is_remove_noise, bool is_correct_skew,
bool is_enable_text_extraction_mode, bool is_sequentially_process,
bool is_auto_overwrite_resolution, int resolution_to_overwrite, int confidence);
```
**Action required:** Add the 3 new parameters. Use `true, 300, 0` for default-equivalent behavior. Alternatively, use the default constructor which initializes all fields with defaults.
### `OCR::OCRPDFPage` / `OCRPDFDocument` / `OCRConvertTo` / `OCRPDFDocuments` — New parameter
All OCR processing methods add an `OCRProgressCallback*` parameter:
```cpp
// v11.0
void OCRPDFPage(PDFPage pdf_page, bool is_editable);
void OCRPDFPage(PDFPage pdf_page, bool is_editable, const OCRConfig config);
// ... same pattern for OCRPDFDocument, OCRConvertTo, OCRPDFDocuments
// v11.1
void OCRPDFPage(PDFPage pdf_page, bool is_editable, OCRProgressCallback* callback = NULL);
void OCRPDFPage(PDFPage pdf_page, bool is_editable, const OCRConfig config, OCRProgressCallback* callback = NULL);
```
- **C++**: Has default value `NULL` — existing calls compile without changes.
- **C# / Python / Java / Node.js / Go**: Bindings do **not** inherit the C++ default value. Existing calls must add the new parameter explicitly (pass `null` / `None` / `nil` to preserve previous behavior).
### PDF to Office — API parameter changes

==================================================================
This is a minor release
____New features____
* Make a font as an embedded font
Related API: Font foxit::common::Font::Embed
* Added API function to delete an Associated file
Related API: void foxit::pdf::AssociatedFiles::RemoveAssociatedFile
* Provide default Signature handler
There is no new API specific function for this, but the current default security handler was improved. Currently, GSDK supports two types of signature filter/subfilter:
(1) filter : Adobe.PPKLite subfilter: adbe.pkcs7.detached
(2) filter : Adobe.PPKLite subfilter: adbe.pkcs7.sha1
If you uses one of them in their signature, they don't need to register a security validation code, the signature validation is in-built by default and will work automatically.
Essentially, this makes it very easy for users with less IT know-how to securely sign documents without having to develop a customized signature validation code.

* Lifecycle management for page/document objects is now handled internally
* Consistent feature set and API across all platforms
* Includes all Foxit PDF SDK v5.0 features
* v6.0 has one standard package with four add-ons
* Indexed Full-Text Search support
____Add-Ons____
The Standard package includes many standard features such as PDF rendering, editing, annotating, AcroForm form fields, etc, and for specialized features there are currently four add-ons provided:
* XFA Add-on = foxit::addon::xfa
* Redaction Add-on = foxit::addon::Redaction
* ConnectedPDF Add-on: foxit::addon::ConnectedPDF
* RMS Add-on: foxit::pdf::RMSEncryptData, foxit::pdf::RMSSecurityCallback, foxit::pdf::RMSSecurityHandler
____New Features____
** Unencrypted wrapper document (PDF 2.0) **
Unencrypted wrapper document is a new feature of PDF 2.0, in v6.0, Foxit PDF SDK support to save the PDF with this new feature.
Related API = foxit::pdf::Doc::StartSaveAsPayloadFile
** 256-bit AES encryption support (PDF 2.0) **
Related API = foxit::pdf::SecurityHandler
** Associated Files (PDF 2.0) **
In PDF 2.0, a new concept named "Associated files" is defined. Associated files provide a means to associate content in other formats with objects of a PDF file and identify the relationship between the content and the objects. Such associated files are designated using file specification dictionaries (known as file specification). Associated files could be linked to the PDF document's catalog, a page dictionary, graphics objects, structure elements, XObject, DParts, an annotation dictionary and so on. Specially, associated files with graphics objects means to be associated with the marked content item.
Class AssociatedFiles is the class for managing associate files. It offers the functions to count/get associate files in PDF dictionary or graphics object, to associate files (represented by FileSpec) with catalog, PDF pages, graphics objects, form XObject objects, annotation objects and so on.
Related API = foxit::pdf::AssociatedFiles cass
** XFA Add-On **
XFA forms are XML-based forms, wrapped inside a PDF. It can be also used in PDF files starting with PDF 1.5 specification. XFA specification is referenced as an external specification indispensable for the application of ISO 32000-1 specification (PDF 1.7). XML Forms Architecture was not standardized as an ISO standard. XFA defines static forms (since XFA 2.0 and before) and dynamic forms (since XFA 2.1 or 2.2). In this version Foxit PDF SDK supports the filling of both static and dynamic XFA forms.
Related API = foxit::addon::xfa
** ConnectedPDF Add-On **
In Foxit PDF SDK 6.0 we have begun to make available some API's for adding ConnectedPDF functionality into third-party applications. Please contact [email protected] if you are interested in trying the ConnectedPDF Add-On.
