Thank you @pointlessone for all your work on this! The new landing page looks great (nice use of CSS gradients) 😄 It's good to see the projects that fall under the "Prawn PDF" umbrella together in this prominent place. I see that you have also updated the styling of the manual. Looks good! If I may voice my 2c: I would choose the same grey color for the section headers and example output parts. |

Wonderful news. I'll update to Ruby 3.3 as soon as I find time and try out the new Prawn. The manual looks really good too. |

I'm happy to report that a whole bunch of new gems has been released.
The focus was on OpenType fonts. Support is much better now as quite a few fixes were made to OTF subsetting. This both has noticeable effect on on-screen rendering and print.
There's also now an option to disable subsetting altogether. This is mostly useful for generating editable documents such as templates for further processing or features like AcroForm provided by Prawn extensions maintained by the community.
There's also a whole lot of bug fixes accumulated over the years such as fixed font caching, encryption, Ruby 3.3 support, and many more.
For more details please refer to Changelogs and commit logs in relevant repositories.
We also have a new homepage with more docs.
Edit: There was too many thing to do and I knew I'd screw something up but I hoped it wouldn't be the worst one. I forgot to thank everyone who helped make this release come true.
I specifically want to thank @petergoldstein for doing a lot of maintenance on Prawn gems. I also want to thank @gettalong for both fixing bugs and doing awesome community support job tending to issues and answering questions.
As well as everyone else who contributed either in code, or community, or just patience.
Thank you.
