Paperback version 0.8.0 is out! For those that don't know, Paperback is a fully accessible and blazing fast ebook/document reader that supports an insane number of formats. Changelog:
Added Japanese, simplified Chinese, and Vietnamese translations! #300, #326, #335.
Added an automatic updater that will now replace your currently installed version of Paperback instead of just downloading the new version! #323.
Added optional sound feedback for reaching a bookmark or a note, thanks Andre Louis for the sounds! #110.
Added RTF document support! #26.
Added support for DAISY XML documents. #136.
Added support for Flat Open Document Text files!
Added support for Flat Open Document presentations!
Added support for separators with s and shift+s. #294.
Any movement of greater than 300 characters will now automatically add to your navigation history. #179.
Fixed restoring Paperback's window from the system tray. #284.
Fixed Markdown documents showing raw text instead of rendered HTML in the Web View.
Fixed tables not rendering properly in Markdown files. #303.
Image only PDFs will now warn you of their existence when you attempt to load one. #89.
It is now possible to check for new dev builds instead of stable releases when checking for updates. #333.
Properly embed version information in the Paperback executable. #204.
Split the options dialog into tabs for ease of use and navigation.
Switched to Hayro for parsing PDFs, leading to more reliability, speed, and fewer DLLs.
Rewrote the entire app in Rust. The new codebase is safer, loads documents faster, and is easier to maintain and extend.
The text control's context menu will now include reader-specific actions instead of generic items such as cut and paste. #114.

Enjoy!@TheQuinbox I tried to use this the other day. I loaded an image only PDF into it thinking it would OCR it and spit out plain text, but it didn't. Is there something I'm doing wrong or is that not a thing?

@bscross32 Not a thing, yet. I've been thinking about how to do this for ages, but it's tricky. There is an opened issue about it though, so I do plan to do it.
