[QUOTE=skillachie;4402028]Introducing the BookFusion Obsidian Plugin: Sync EPUB, PDF, CBZ/CBR, MOBI Highlights & Annotations to Your Vault

Very nice initial release. I keep waiting for the stampede to BookFusion because of the development progress, and potential.

Is there a way for it show the date of last sync instead of a yes/no? I have my entire library synced now and it would be useful to tell when each book was last synced.

I have a large batch of stories that get updated at various intervals and it would be useful to be able to tell when the story was last synced compared to when I last updated the story.

I think you might have posted on Reddit as well. This is not currently possibly but we will look at adding it to the plugin when we start working on two-way sync

Hehe. Thanks for the support. Slowly but surely overtime.

We have received many Quality of Life (QoL) requests for PDFs. Previously, we used the native Apple PDF kit for our PDF reader, but it had limitations, such as a flashing white flicker in dark mode and others.

As a result, we built a new PDF reader from the ground up and ensured it reached feature parity with the existing PDF reader which sets the stage for future PDF QoL improvements that you requested.

New PDF Engine

• Faster rendering with higher quality
• Fast themes (Dark, Light, Sepia). No more flickering
• Native PDF TTS support
• Highlights supported with Apple Pencil
• Password protected PDFs (iOS only)
• Multi-column support

Other features previously supported with our legacy PDF reader
Please do reach out to us at support@bookfusion.com if you encounter any issues with our new PDF reader. In the interim you can temporarily enable the legacy PDF reader if preferred by doing the following:

1. Go to Settings
2. Select BookFusion
3. Select PDF Reader and click Legacy

Now that we have more control of the PDF experience we will be able to add more of your requested features such as handwritten notes & annotations, margin cropping, disable/enable image inversion and a few others. However, we can't spend the entire development cycle on just PDF , so these next set of changes will come in another sprint.

Fixes & Improvements

• Fix for crash related to Page curl effect
• Fixed play from selected position TTS bug that happened with some EPUB books
• Fixed bug related to playing TTS in the background
• Fixed adding tags to highlight
• Fixed text color of menu when using grey theme
• Prevent accidentally close of the notes dialogue when writing on iPads
