     http://www.scryber.co.uk/Links/Release_0_9_0_0



     The 0.8.9.2 release is stable but beta

     Fixes an issue with the table headings overflowing onto new pages with empty / spanned cells.
     Fixes an issue that default value of the use system fonts returns false when not configured (rather than true).

     The 0.8.9.1 release is stable but beta

     Tables
     Includes a fix for rows that are set as Visible=false still rendering.
     Includes a fix for repeating table heading heights.

     Fonts
     Fixed a defect that would embed TTF files even through their use was restricted.
     Fixed a defect for invalid unicode names in the TTF file causing an array overflow.
     Added logging to identify the invalid fonts in the trace.

     PageGroup
     Includes a fix for pages or sections (or nested groups) within a page group that are set as Visible=false still rendering

     PageOf
     Fixed a defect in the PageOf component that threw an exception if it was on not visible  (@visible=false).

     XMLDataSource
     Now supports the use of {item:...} as a binding expression so the data value can be dynamically set from the Items collection in the document.
     (XMLDataSource must be databound before any references try to use it.)

     Choose / Otherwise - updated the schema to support any document component type, rather than schema warnings for anything that was not a top level visual component.

     Image
     Now supports the use of binding expressions onto the img-data attribute, so images can be dynamically assigned from binding expresssions (for Xml binding requires a Base64 encoded bitmap).
