New Features

    PDF Output: Default to generating PDFs with a page size of letter instead of taking the page size from the output profile.

    This avoids user confusion/bug reports about PDF Output having "too large fonts". There is a new option "Use profile size" to have the conversion use the output profile page size instead.
    PDF/DOCX Output: Add separate, pdf/docx specific, page margin settings that override the common settings.

    Useful because page margin settings for page oriented formats, such as PDF and DOCX are usually different than those for reflowable formats such as EPUB
    Table of Contents tool: Add an undo button
    Metadata jacket: Show custom rating columns using stars
    Metadata jacket: Change formatting of series to match that used by the book details panel. Also allow access to the raw series name and number when customizing the jacket template.
    calibredb check_library: Vacuum database when running the check
    Check Book: Add a check for empty identifier elements

Bug Fixes

    Edit book/Book polishing: When adding a cover to an EPUB 3.0 file set the svg property if a SVG cover wrapper is used
    Refresh the book list when a User Category is added/edited.

    Closes tickets: 1675535
    EPUB metadata: Fix deleting ISBN from EPUB file could result in an EPUB file without a package identifier if the ISBN was used as the package identifier.

    Closes tickets: 1677383
    Amazon metadata download: Fix title and author names being bold in the downloaded comments when using bing to get amazon metadata.

    Closes tickets: 1674088
    PDF Output: Fix a regression that broke PDF Output for documents containing mathematics.

    Closes tickets: 1673983
    E-book viewer: Fix a regression that broke the "Clear recently read books" action in the viewer

    Linux: When adding books from directories ignore files that have undecodable names.

    Closes tickets: 1685819
    AZW3: Preserve the primary-writing-mode EXTH header field when round-tripping AZW3 files. Should fix editing/conversion of RTL AZW3 files causing page turning to become left-to-right on the Kindle
    AZW3 Output: Set the primary-writing-mode EXTH header when the input document has page-progression-direction set to RTL as this is apparently required on newer Kindle firmware for right-to-left page turning
    Fix a misbehaving wireless device connection can cause calibre to hang when opening the Connect/Share menu.
