PDF plugin 2.0 released
« on: March 22, 2026, 05:34:20 PM »
Airsoft Softwair, the hardest working men in code business, are proud to present version 2.0 of the PDF plugin for Hollywood. This plugin can be used to create and view PDF documents from Hollywood scripts and contains the most advanced PDF rendering engine available on Amiga systems. The plugin was formerly known as Polybios and was renamed for version 2.0 because the old name caused some confusion. Version 2.0 is a major update which, in the spirit of Hollywood 11 which has lots of optimizations for smaller executables, now contains two separate flavours of the plugin: A full version that includes the full PDF renderer and a light version which is much smaller because it only contains the engine to create PDFs. Furthermore, it's also possible to directly load PDF pages into Hollywood vector brushes now. Finally, the PDF plugin supports the macOS arm64 and Linux arm64 platforms now.

The plugin is now available for free download from the official Hollywood portal. Thanks to Hollywood's cross-platform plugin system versions for AmigaOS3 (m68k, m881), AmigaOS 4, MorphOS, WarpOS, AROS (x86), Linux (ppc, arm, arm64, x86, x64), macOS (ppc, x86, x64, arm64), Windows (x86, x64), Android (arm, arm64) and iOS (arm, arm64) are provided.

This release was brought to you by Airsoft Softwair - the hardest working men in code business.
