FlippingBook Publisher Changelog

What's new in FlippingBook Publisher 2024.1.4

Dec 27, 2023
  • We’re happy to introduce a new pop-up image gallery in FlippingBook Publisher. From now on, you can easily create an image gallery in your publication: upload images, set their order, remove or add new ones. Our new gallery of pop-ups will be perfect for displaying items from different angles, showcasing products in every available color, and providing more valuable info in an enticing way. Thus, when your readers click on a pop-up image on a page, they can look through the whole set of images to get the info they need and see all the details. Available in the Business Edition.
  • We keep enhancing the design of the Content Editor and publication to make them neat and modern. So in this release, we’ve refreshed the icons of the interactive elements, such as videos, GIFs, and pop-up images that you see in the Content Editor and publication itself.
  • Working with many interactive elements at once in the Content Editor has become faster and more convenient. For instance, if you want to copy 20 pop-up images and move them to the next page, it will be much faster than before.
  • Fixed: converting a PDF or adding new elements would cause an error if the path to the file was too long.
  • Fixed: the size of the PDF in the ‘Download’ window would differ from the actual size of the file.

New in FlippingBook Publisher 2023.1.2 (Apr 6, 2023)

  • Fixed: Sometimes a PDF would fail to convert if the colors of some symbols were rendered incorrectly.
  • Fixed: In some cases, the PDF conversion process would freeze when the pages were converted.
  • Fixed: Sometimes connecting to an SFTP server would cause an error.

New in FlippingBook Publisher 2023.1.0 (Feb 21, 2023)

  • Now you can fine-tune the icons atop of your videos, images, and GIFs in the Content Editor. In some cases, an icon could hide important information in the preview of a video, pop-up, or GIF, so we’ve made the icons as flexible as ever and you can choose the best place to put them. You can place the icons in the center, any corner, or even remove them, and set a suitable size for your icons.
  • What's more, you can also change icon settings for all added content in your publication at once. For instance, it allows you to change icon settings for all pop-up images to appear in the bottom left corner, and only when the reader hovers over them. You can also bulk edit video and GIF icons in the same way.
  • If your publication has many pop-up images, your readers can now open the first pop-up and navigate through all the other images within a page, slide, or double spread. Plus, you can share a page with an opened pop-up image. For instance, you can send a link to a certain page in your catalog to your client so that they could check a specific item they are interested in. A gallery-like navigation between interactive elements is switched on by default but you can always switch it off by going to the Settings tab > the Book section in FlippingBook Publisher.
  • From now on, your readers can zoom in on your content and flip through the pages without zooming out. Thus, if you have a catalog or brochure with various item descriptions or detailed photos, your clients can zoom in on the first page and look through the whole publication comfortably. You can even send a link to a specific zoomed page to your clients so that they could see all the details straight away. The Fixed Zoom Mode setting is switched off by default but you can always switch it on by going to the Settings tab > the Book section in FlippingBook Publisher.
  • If you use the same interactive elements on many pages of your publication, for example, add logos, links, or watermarks, then the new Copy Сontent option is just what you need. It allows you to copy and paste selected elements to the pages you need in a few clicks. So if you publish a 50–page catalog and add the same link to your website in every section, you can now do it much easier and faster—just copy and paste the link to all the selected pages at once.
  • Now you can embed YouTube Shorts into your publications along with Wistia, Vimeo, and YouTube videos. Think of short and concise instructions, feature introductions, or funny and engaging videos to brighten the mood.
  • We’ve enhanced the way links and email addresses are extracted from a PDF. Even if a link contains different fonts and colors or if it's written in two lines, it will be extracted correctly.
  • Saving changes that you made in the Content Editor is now up to 2 times faster.
  • If you start creating a publication in FlippingBook Publisher and there’s no more space on your computer disk, you’ll get notified about it.
  • Now the collections in the My Collections section in the FlippingBook Cloud Manager are always sorted by name.
  • Fixed: Sometimes the menus and tooltips would appear on the wrong side of the element in FlippingBook Publisher.

New in FlippingBook Publisher 2022.3.2 (Oct 3, 2022)

  • From now on, you can open the list of all the interactive elements that were extracted from a PDF or added in the Content Editor and check or edit them right away. Finding a specific video you want to replace or checking the relevance of the links in your catalog or brochure has never been easier with the new Content Manager.
  • We’ve enhanced the Content Editor in FlippingBook Publisher and made working in it even more convenient for you. You can now adjust the size of the Pages tab or even minimize it to create more workspace for your project. Plus, you can set the size of thumbnails to your liking: make them small to see more pages at the same time or enlarge your thumbnails to be able to find the page you need right away.
  • What’s more, you can now navigate through the pages of your project via the new buttons. This way, you can even close the Pages tab and only use the Left or Right navigation buttons to go through the pages or type in the exact page you need to open. Plus, you can now see the number of the page that your project is opened on in the Content Editor.
  • You can now customize the shadow for a specific page in a publication with the single page flip mode.
  • The work of the links in the languages that use non-ASCII characters has been improved.
  • Fixed: In some cases, when you opened two or more dialog windows at the same time and wanted to minimize them, FlippingBook Publisher wouldn’t be minimized.
  • Fixed: If you tried to add an image with an unsupported format, FlippingBook Publisher would shut down with an error.
  • Fixed: In some cases, while using Search in a publication opened in FlippingBook Publisher, you would see deleted pages in search results.
  • Fixed: Sometimes your PDF for download would contain links from the source file, even if they were deleted from the publication in the Content Editor.
