PdfSettings (serde, camelCase) is the Save PDF model: Standard, Compatibility
PDF 1.4-2.0, General (Preserve editing, Thumbnails, Fast web view, View after
saving, Create layers), Compression, Marks and Bleeds, Output, Advanced and
Security. PdfOptions = settings + pages, title and date.
document.exportPdf {path?, preset?, artboard?|artboards?|range?, standard?,
compatibility?, ...sections} -> {path|dataBase64, bytes, warnings} applies the
options over the preset (null keeps the preset's value); PDF/X, passwords,
PDF/A-2b at 2.0 and out-of-range values are refused; options accepted but not
applied yet come back as warnings. document.export {format: pdf} and
document.formats take and list the same options.
The Save PDF dialog (file.export.pdf, ui.savePdfDialog) has Preset,
Standard and Compatibility on top and a section list; it runs the export
before asking for a path, so bad options never open a save dialog.

Double-clicking the Eyedropper opens Eyedropper Options (dialog
eyedropperOptions): raster sample size (point, 3x3, 5x5) and Picks Up /
Applies trees (transparency; focal fill colour, transparency, overprint;
focal stroke colour, transparency, overprint, weight, cap, join, miter,
dash; character and paragraph attributes). The options live in the
preferences (Prefs::eyedropper, eyedropper.setOptions, prefs key
eyedropper) and replace the earlier appearance/transparency switches.
appearance.copyFrom takes pickUp/apply overrides, reverse (Alt-click:
the selection's attributes onto the clicked object) and append
(Shift+Alt-click: add the source's fills and strokes). Type copies font,
size and paragraph attributes to type. Clicking an image samples its
pixels; sampled colours keep their colour model.

The mark left of Home (and in the About box) is now the VectorCraft app icon,
the engraved dragon from assets/app-icon/ (128 px PNG, include_bytes!), decoded
once per context into a mipmapped texture and drawn at 22 pt with the icon's own
rounded corners. The old code-drawn gradient square with a pen nib is removed.

One shared colour visitor (`colorcmds::Recolor`, used by Edit Colors, Recolor Artwork, the Blend
commands, the proxy Invert/Complement and Document Color Mode) maps solid colours, gradient stops
and text runs as before, and now also:
- gradient-mesh points (with fills); Blend grades meshes by their average and keeps their shading;
- embedded images' pixels (`includeImages?`, default on): the image becomes a recoloured copy under
a content key, the original stays for undo and other objects; linked images are left alone;
- the tiles of pattern fills and strokes (`includePatterns?`, default on): one recoloured copy per
pattern saved as a new pattern swatch ("Dots 2"), the original untouched.
Everything stays one undo step; only nodes that change are copied, in one walk of the tree.
- doc: `ImageBlob::map_rgb` (decode, map each distinct colour once, keep alpha, re-encode PNG),
`ImageBlob::content_key` (now also used by image import) and `ImageBlob::png`.
- `recolor.colors` lists mesh points and pattern tile colours too.
- patterncmds: `add_pattern` adds a pattern and its swatch (shared by Make Pattern and Save a Copy).

Both writers now ask the shared stroke geometry how to write each stroke
(effects::stroke::for_writer): a plain stroke where that is exact, else the
canvas's filled outlines (arrowheads, width profiles, dashes fitted to corners,
dots with round or projecting caps), grouped under the stroke opacity when the
line and its heads overlap. Brushed strokes are written as their brush art.
Inside/outside alignment only applies to closed paths, so open paths export as
centred strokes. The PDF outside-stroke clip frame and the SVG outside mask now
cover the whole stroke reach (miter spikes, projecting caps). SVG stroke
gradients use the same paint box as the canvas. The svg crate docs no longer
claim arrowheads, profiles, brushes and effects are dropped.

Clip groups clip by compound paths (with their holes), even-odd paths, text
outlines and groups (the union of their members) on screen, in raster
export, in SVG and in PDF alike, through one shared region:
Node::clip_outline (the model walk) and effects::clip_outline (text
outlined, several shapes united), cached per clipping path in the
renderer. Nothing to clip by hides the clipped art everywhere, and clicks
hit a clip group only inside its clipping region. Make Clipping Mask takes
a compound path or text object on top (it loses its paint) and Release
gives it back unchanged in kind.
