Release Notes
May 20, 2026: GraFx Studio: Backgrounds on Character Styles and kerning
GraFx Studio v1.43 adds background color to character styles, applies font-built-in kerning in the Text Layout Engine, and extends clipping masks with a Custom shape option. Plus fixes for Components text and animation, image variable settings, preflight aspect ratio reporting, and large image variable uploads.
May 20, 2026: GraFx Studio Adobe® InDesign® plugin: Clipping masks
The InDesign® exporter (v1.4.0) now preserves clipping masks on image frames when exporting to GraFx Studio — built-in shapes, custom paths, and nested shape-with-image setups are all supported, with strokes and corner radius carried over.
May 5, 2026: GraFx Studio: Clipping masks and character limits
Image frames can now be clipped to rectangle, ellipse, or polygon shapes — with stroke and corner radius — without needing a shape frame on top. Plus character limits for single-line and multi-line text variables in both Studio and Studio UI, and fixes for output status reporting and component sizing across layouts.
Apr 29, 2026: Connector CLI v1.12.0
A new
delete-authcommand for cleanly removing connector authentication, plus reliability improvements: clearer validation when configuring auth, explicit no-cache headers on connector responses, and more consistent response content types.
Apr 24, 2026: Subject types, Brand Kit sync, and improvements
Subject types for Smart Crop, centrally managed in the platform, plus Brand Kit sync with auto and manual options. Clearer info messages on autogrow interactions, and fixes for PDF overprint and image variable metadata mappings.
Apr 17, 2026: New Data Connector: CSV
Use any publicly accessible CSV file as a data source in GraFx Studio — no authentication needed. Column headers become template variables automatically, with built-in type inference and pagination.
