Added support for automatic line numbering (often used in
academic papers)
Typst's layout engine is now multithreaded. Typical speedups are 2-3x for
larger documents. The multithreading operates on page break boundaries, so
explicit page breaks are necessary for it to kick in.
Paragraph justification was optimized with a new two-pass algorithm. Speedups
are larger for shorter paragraphs and go up to 6x.
Highly reduced PDF file sizes due to better font subsetting (thanks to
@LaurenzV)
Emoji are now exported properly in PDF
Added initial support for PDF/A. For now, only the PDF/A-2b profile is
supported, but more is planned for the future.
Added various options for configuring the CLI's environment (fonts, package
paths, etc.)
Text show rules now match across multiple text elements
Block-level equations can now optionally break over multiple pages
Fixed a bug where some fonts would not print correctly on professional
printers
Fixed a long-standing bug which could cause headings to be orphaned at the
bottom of the page
Layout
Added support for multi-column floating placement and figures via
place.scope and figure.scope. Two-column documents should now prefer
setpage(columns:2) over show: column.with(2) (see the
page setup guide).
Added support for automatic line numbering (often used in
academic papers)
Added par.spacing property for configuring paragraph spacing. This should
now be used instead of showpar:setblock(spacing:..)(Breaking change)
Block-level elements like lists, grids, and stacks now show themselves as
blocks and are thus affected by all block properties (e.g. stroke) rather
than just spacing(Breaking change)
Added block.sticky property which prevents a page break after a block
Added place.flush function which forces all floating figures to be placed
before any further content
Added auto option for page.header and page.footer which results in
an automatic header/footer based on the numbering (which was previously
inaccessible after a change)
Added gap and justify parameters to repeat function
Added width and height parameters to the measure function to define
the space in which the content should be measured. Especially useful in
combination with layout.
The height of a block, image, rect, square, ellipse, or circle can
now be specified in fractional units
The scale function now supports absolute lengths for x, y, factor.
This way an element of unknown size can be scaled to a fixed size.
The values of block.above and block.below can now be retrieved in context
expressions.
Increased accuracy of conversions between absolute units (pt, mm, cm, in)
Fixed a bug which could cause headings to be orphaned at the bottom of the
page
Fixed footnotes within breakable blocks appearing on the page where the
breakable block ends instead of at the page where the footnote marker is
Fixed numbering of nested footnotes and footnotes in floats
Fixed empty pages appearing when a context expression wraps whole pages
Fixed setblock(spacing: x) behaving differently from
setblock(above: x, below: x)
Fixed behavior of rotate and scale with reflow: true
Fixed interaction of align(horizon) and v(1fr)
Fixed various bugs where floating placement would yield overlapping results
Fixed a bug where widow/orphan prevention would unnecessarily move text into
the next column
Fixed weak spacing not being trimmed at the start and end of lines
in a paragraph (only at the start and end of paragraphs)
Fixed interaction of weak page break and pagebreak.to
Fixed compilation output of a single weak page break
Tuned hyphenation: It is less eager by default and hyphenations close to the
edges of words are now discouraged more strongly
(May lead to larger layout reflows)
New default font: Libertinus Serif. This is the maintained successor to the
old default font Linux Libertine. (May lead to smaller reflows)
Setting the font to an unavailable family will now result in a warning
Implemented a new smart quote algorithm, fixing various bugs where smart
quotes weren't all that smart
Added text.costs parameter for tweaking various parameters that affect the
choices of the layout engine during text layout
Added typm highlighting mode for math in raw blocks
Added basic i18n for Galician, Catalan, Latin, Icelandic, Hebrew
Implemented hyphenation duplication for Czech, Croatian, Lower Sorbian,
Polish, Portuguese, Slovak, and Spanish.
The smallcaps function is now an element function and can thereby be used
in show(-set) rules.
The raw.theme parameter can now be set to none to disable highlighting
even in the presence of a language tag, and to auto to reset to the
default
New font metadata exceptions for Archivo, Kaiti SC, and Kaiti TC
Updated bundled New Computer Modern fonts to version 6.0
Math
Block-level equations can now break over multiple pages if enabled via
show math.equation:setblock(breakable:true).
Matrix and vector sizing is now more consistent across different cell contents
Added stretch function for manually or automatically
stretching characters like arrows or parentheses horizontally or vertically
Improved layout of attachments on parenthesized as well as under- or overlined
expressions
Improved layout of nested attachments resulting from code like
#let a0 =$a_0$;$a0^1$
Improved layout of primes close to superscripts
Improved layout of fractions
Typst now makes use of math-specific height-dependent kerning information in
some fonts for better attachment layout
The floor and ceil functions in math are now callable symbols, such that
$floor(x) = lr(floor.l x floor.r)$
The mat.delim, vec.delim, and
cases.delim parameters now allow any character that is
considered a delimiter or "fence" (e.g. |) by Unicode. The delim: "||"
notation is not supported anymore and should be replaced by
delim: bar.double(Minor breaking change)
Added ~ shorthand for tilde.op in math mode (Minor breaking change)
Fixed baseline alignment of equation numbers
Fixed positioning of corner brackets (⌜, ⌝, ⌞, ⌟)
Fixed baseline of large roots
Fixed multiple minor layout bugs with attachments
Fixed that alignment points could affect line height in math
Fixed that spaces could show up between text and invisible elements like
metadata in math
Fixed a crash with recursive show rules in math
Fixed lr.size not affecting characters enclosed in
mid in some cases
Fixed resolving of em units in sub- and superscripts
Fixed bounding box of inline equations when a text edge is
set to "bounds"
Introspection
Implemented a new system by which Typst tracks where elements end up on the
pages. This may lead to subtly different behavior in introspections.
(Breaking change)
Fixed various bugs with wrong counter behavior in complex layout situations,
through a new, more principled implementation
Counter updates can now be before the first, in between, and after the last
page when isolated by weak page breaks. This allows, for instance, updating a
counter before the first page header and background.
Fixed logical ordering of introspections within footnotes and figures
Fixed resolved positions of elements (in particular, headings) whose show rule
emits an invisible element (like a state update) before a page break
Fixed behavior of stepping a counter at a deeper level than its current state
has
Fixed citation formatting not working in table headers and a few other places
Displaying the footnote counter will now respect the footnote numbering style
Model
Document set rules do not need to be at the very start of the document
anymore. The only restriction is that they must not occur inside of layout
containers.
Tight lists now only attach (with tighter spacing) to preceding paragraphs,
not arbitrary blocks
The quote element is now locatable (can be used in queries)
The bibliography heading now uses depth instead of level so that its level
can still be configured via a show-set rule
Added support for more numbering formats: Devanagari, Eastern Arabic,
Bengali, and circled numbers
Added hanging-indent parameter to heading
function to tweak the appearance of multi-line headings and improved default
appearance of multi-line headings
Improved handling of bidirectional text in outline entry
Fixed document set rules being ignored in an otherwise empty document
Fixed document set rules not being usable in context expressions
Fixed bad interaction between set document and set page
Fixed showfigure:setalign(..). Since the default figure alignment is
now a show-set rule, it is not revoked by showfigure: it => it.body
anymore. (Minor breaking change)
Fixed numbering of footnote references
Fixed spacing after bibliography heading
Bibliography
The Hayagriva YAML publisher field can now accept a dictionary with a
location key. The top-level location key is now primarily intended for
event and item locations.
Multiple page ranges with prefixes and suffixes are now allowed
Added director and catch-all editor types to BibLaTeX parsing
Added support for disambiguation to alphanumeric citation style
The year 0 will now render as 1BC
Fixes for sorting of bibliography entries
Fixed pluralization of page range labels
Fixed sorting of citations by their number
Fixed how citation number ranges collapse
Fixed when the short form of a title is used
Fixed parsing of unbalanced dollars in BibLaTeX url field
Updated built-in citation styles
Visualization
Added fill-rule parameter to path and
polygon functions
Added proper support for negative values of the digits parameter of
calc.round (the behaviour existed before but was subtly broken)
Conversions from int to float will now error instead of saturating if
the float is too large (Minor breaking change)
Added float.nan and float.inf, removed calc.nan(Minor breaking change)
Certain symbols are now generally callable like functions and not only
specifically in math. Examples are accents or floor and
ceil.
Improved repr of relative values, sequences, infinities, NaN,
type(none) and type(auto)
Fixed crash on whole packages (rather than just files) cyclically importing
each other
Fixed return type of calc.round on integers when a non-zero value is
provided for digits
Styling
Text show rules now match across multiple text elements
The string " in a text show rule now matches smart quotes
Fixed a long-standing styling bug where the header and footer would
incorrectly inherit styles from a lone element on the page (e.g. a heading)
Fixed set page not working directly after a counter/state update
Page fields configured via an explicit page(..)[..] call can now be
properly retrieved in context expressions
Export
Highly reduced PDF file sizes due to better font subsetting
Emoji are now exported properly in PDF
Added initial support for PDF/A. For now, only the standard PDF/A-2b is
supported, but more is planned for the future. Enabled via --pdf-standard a-2b in the CLI and via the UI in File > Export as > PDF in the web app.
Setting page.fill to none will now lead to transparent pages instead
of white ones in PNG and SVG. The new default of auto means transparent
for PDF and white for PNG and SVG.
Improved text copy-paste from PDF in complex scenarios
Exported SVGs now contain the data-typst-label attribute on groups resulting
from labelled boxes and blocks
Fixed a bug where some fonts would not print correctly on professional
printers
Fixed a bug where transparency could leak from one PDF object to another
Fixed a bug with CMYK gradients in PDF
Fixed various bugs with export of Oklab gradients in PDF
Fixed crashes related to rendering of non-outline glyphs
Two small fixes for PDF standard conformance
Performance
Typst's layout engine is now multithreaded. Typical speedups are 2-3x for
larger documents. The multithreading operates on page break boundaries, so
explicit page breaks are necessary for it to kick in.
Paragraph justification was optimized with a new two-pass algorithm. Speedups
are larger for shorter paragraphs and range from 1-6x.
Command Line Interface
Added --pages option to select specific page ranges to export
Added --package-path and --package-cache-path as well as
TYPST_PACKAGE_PATH and TYPST_PACKAGE_CACHE_PATH environment variables for
configuring where packages are loaded from and cached in, respectively
Added --ignore-system-fonts flag to disable system fonts fully for better
reproducibility
Added --make-deps argument for outputting the dependencies of the current
compilation as a Makefile
Added --pretty option to typst query, with the default now being to minify
(only applies to JSON format)
Added --backup-path to typst update to configure where the previous
version is backed up
Added useful links to help output
The CLI will now greet users who invoke just typst for the first time
The document can now be written to stdout by passing - as the output
filename (for PDF or single-page image export)
Typst will now emit a proper error message instead of failing silently when
the certificate specified by --cert or TYPST_CERT could not be loaded
The CLI now respects the SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH environment variable for better
reproducibility
When exporting multiple images, you can now use t (total pages), p
(current page), and 0p (zero-padded current page, same as current n)
in the output path
The input and output paths now allow non-UTF-8 values
Times are now formatted more consistently across the CLI
Fixed a bug related to the --open flag
Fixed path completions for typst not working in zsh
Tooling and Diagnostics
The "compiler" field for specifying the minimum Typst version required by a
package now supports imprecise bounds like 0.11 instead of 0.11.0
Added warning when a label is ignored by Typst because no preceding labellable
element exists
Added hint when trying to apply labels in code mode
Added hint when trying to call a standard library function that has been
shadowed/overwritten by a local definition
Added hint when trying to set both the language and the region in the lang
