This is the second production-level release after
the big redesign effort. It includes many bugfixes
and new features. The fonts installed on the
system are automatically detected. The XML metrics
generation is now optional. Support for the
collapsing-border model in tables was added.

annex of the Unicode standard specifies rules for
breaking text into lines depending on the language
used.
