fortunate because it avoids reworking fontres for changes to MuPDF).

various improvements and fixes, notably now supports AESv3 encrypted
PDFs and, very welcome, search now operates over all pages and is thus
actually useful.
Note: key bindings changed slightly; notably /=search (currently
only within a page), n=next search hit, N=last search hit.
A few others were removed to make room and consistency. See
manpage for more (or hit ? while running and look at stdout).

note that the command-line options have changed slightly and there
are new keybindings - see mupdf(1).

Fitz is a project to create a new and modern graphics library.
At the core of Fitz is the display tree: a scene graph of vector
graphics, images and text making up the contents of a page.
The standard components of Fitz are:
* Base runtime (thin memory and error handling layer)
* Streams and filters (standard postscript, pdf and tiff filters)
* World model (display trees and resources)
* Drawing (draw the tree to a bitmap raster)
MuPDF is a PDF parser that reads PDF files and creates Fitz trees.
MuPDF also has an API to modify internal objects in the PDF files
and write PDF files. For instance, it is possible to use the MuPDF
library to encrypt existing PDF files, or to rearrange the pages.
pdftool is a commandline demo of this functionality; it is a portable
pdf swiss army knife for fixing broken pdf files, changing permissions,
merging and extracting pages, and examining the internal object
structure of a PDF file.
The mupdf binary (aka pdfview) is a bare bones PDF viewer.
