0.4.0
PDF Chain 0.4.0 is compatible with the
PDF Toolkit 1.45
and supporting its features.
PDF Chain 0.4.0 is not compatible with PDFtk 1.44 and older!
Merged Cat Simple and Cat Extended to Conaticate
using the multi-character input handles of PDFtk 1.45.
By implementing the multi-character handles,
PDFtk removed its 26 file limitation.
Cat Simple is not necessary any longer.
Using a guint id instead a char handle for indexing the files.
Default (not indexed) file id is G_MAXUINT.
The method cLStore_CatExtended::createCommand()
creates a PDFtk input handle from the id.
Id 0 equals to handle A, 25 to Z, 26 to BA (multi-character) ...
Adjust the command syntax for page rotation to PDFtk 1.45.
Using north, south, east, west now instead of N, S, E, W.
Supporting the r page prefix of PDFtk 1.45.
Rewrote some methodes at file id store_cat.cc
and reorganized some functionality of the liststore.
Implemented the Clear Button.
Removed the "Options" at the add-files-filechooser of Concatenate (Cat Extended).
Add has its own column at Concatenate now.
Changed some Labels ("Shuffle", "Digits", "UTF-8", ...)
Updated projectpage

0.3.3.1
Bugfix in section "Cat" (Bugreport)
Now re-indexing list-entries before creating the command at metohod cLStore_Cat::createCommand()
0.3.3
Test messages are only compiled into program if precompiler flag PDFCHAIN_TEST is defined at "pdfchain.h"
(e.g. destructor messages)
Temporary widgets are onle compiled into program if precompiler flag PDFCHAIN_TEMP is defined at "pdfchain.h"
(e.g. hidden TreeViewColumns for Tooltips)
Global constant variables at "pdfchain.h" are declarated external and defined at "constants.h" now
Global constant variable "Pdfchain::Path::DEFAULT_PATH_DOCUMENTS" used by the filechoosers is no longer
declarated at "pdfchain.h" (external declarated variables seems to make problems at the allocation to
virtual declarated variables)
0.3.2
Button "Shuffle pages" added at "Concatenate"
Replaced RadioButton pairs "Drop XFA", "Don't drop XFA" and "Flatten", "Don't flatten" with CheckButtons "Drop XFA" and "Flatten" at "Tools"

FileChooserButtons instead Entrys, Buttons and FileChoosers
New message-dialogs
Concatenate:
The options are adjustable at the tree view now (no extra window necessary)
The separator ',' [COMMA] is no longer valid at "Pages" (using ' ' [SPACE] only - like at the PDFTK)
On invalid inputs in "Pages" the entry text will be shown in red letters
The page numbers are shown at the tree view (not in statusbar)
If the page number of a PDF document is not ascertainable, or 0, the page number appears orange.
The page number is not checked for the creation of the command.
The tooltip of a row shows the whole file path (at "Attachment" too)
The treeview is searchable for filenames (not file paths) (at "Attachment" too)
The ID combobox only shows possible options
A file gets the same file index (handle - a letter from A to Z), even if it occurs several times in the list
Parameters can be assigned already in the file selection dialog for all files to be added (at expander "Options")
Burst:
Suffix - Text behind counter digits
Counting octal, decimal and hexadecimal (on using auto digits, number of counter digits will be adjusted)
Extension (.pdf)
Multibackground / Multistamp (new PDFTK parameter)
