First release in 2019 of all SetaPDF components!2019-01-22

We just released all SetaPDF components in new minor versions!

Updates in the SetaPDF-Core component were done to improve handling of foreign and also faulty PDF documents.

We also fixed a more critical bug in the SetaPDF-Signer component: When certifying a PDF document an invalid value was referenced in the DocMDP entry. No reader or viewer complain about it, but after all it is an invalid value.

If you are doing certification (check your code for $signer->setCertificationLevel() calls) we urgently suggest to update to the latest version as soon as possible!
