To Help With SEO
When it comes to SEO a great position is built on a mountain of small improvements - and here's a few more that are worth working on!- You can now set Canonical tags to deal with the problem of duplicate content
- There's a new option to quickly set the original photo filename as the Image Name
- noopener and noreferrer attributes are now added to any target="_blank" links
Other Improvements
We've included a host of small but useful enhancements and fixes. In this release that includes:- 21 new Google fonts offering new and interesting typography options
- PDF, Powerpoint and Word import improvements
- Fixed an issue with AI files in the Online Content Catalog
- When pages are re-ordered, page breaks are now added to prevent text moving between pages
Improved on-screen Colors
The 'Show Printer Colors' options has been replaced with 'Show Profile Colors', so onscreen color (HSV and RGB) will vary with the color profile selected, and should more closely match the colors in your PDFs.Self-Hosted Google Fonts
No-one wants to give up their Google Fonts, so Designer Pro will now automatically publish the fonts to your own web space and no longer reference Google, offering instant compliance. You don't need to do anything other than re-publish your website.
What's more, with the great font support in modern browsers the balance of advantage has been moving in favor of self hosting, so you could also benefit from speed improvements for your web page, with all the SEO benefits that brings. Double win!
