A change-log written in the first person, by a person, for people. We try not to ship more than one significant change a month — slow software is a feature.
addedCross-book linking — type [[ in any note and Lexis suggests anchors from other books in your library. A note linked to two books shows in both, forever.
addedMargin export — print a book and the margin notes come with it, properly typeset, in their own column. Tested at A5, A4, and US-letter.
fixedEPUB 3.3 with complex page progressions (e.g. some Tankōbon scans) now lay out correctly.
fixedThe little ping when an annotation auto-saves is now silent. We are sorry it ever made a sound.
fixedOn long-form PDFs, the reading-line no longer drifts after page 200.
addedThe Research panel — select a passage, press R, and Lexis fetches the most-cited papers from arXiv and OpenAlex on that topic. Local cache, with a "no-network" toggle for travel.
addedBibliographic auto-update — if a paper changes its citation, your saved citation updates and you see the diff.
addedThe Plate — a per-book typography panel. Choose typeface, measure, leading, paper. Your settings are remembered per book, not per app.
addedThree new typefaces in the included set: Cardo, Junicode, and Tinos.
breakThe old "global typography" preference is removed. Per-book settings replace it. Existing libraries are migrated on first open.
addedInline dictionary, etymology, and translation. All three run locally — no network is needed once the dictionaries are downloaded.
fixedLibrary search now ranks by recency-of-reading, not alphabetical order. (Your reading life is the index.)
addedThe first stable Lexis. Reading, annotation, library, the .lex format, command palette. Everything else is built on top of this.
