This release is based on go1.16 and comes with two new commands and a wide array of improvements and fixes for both CLI and API:

The new annotation handling supports listing, adding and removing annotations via the API and listing and removing annotations via the CLI:

pdfcpu annotations list   [-p(ages) selectedPages] inFile
pdfcpu annotations remove [-p(ages) selectedPages] inFile [objNr...]

Image extraction was improved in several ways. There is support for cascaded filters and as of now pdfcpu also recognizes thumbnails. There is also a related command that prints a list of images for selected pages including available details:

pdfcpu images list [-p(ages) selectedPages] inFile

• The boxes and info command now include the effective page rotation and orientation.
• You can now include links in your stamps using the url parameter.

Using the API you can now generate your own bookmarks aka outline hierarchy. See more: bookmarks_test.go
