43.0.0 (August 7, 2024)
We are happy to announce the release of CKEditor 5 v43.0.0.
The new merge fields feature is a game-changer for creating document templates and other kinds of personalized or dynamic content. Thanks to this feature, you can insert placeholders into your content, indicating where actual values should go. These places are marked in the final content in a distinctive way, making it easy to later process the template and fill it with the actual values. The feature supports a preview mode too - you can define preview data sets, and see how the content will look like when real values are used directly in the editor. The plugin is highly customizable to fit various applications and scenarios. Finally, merge fields are fully integrated with our Export to Word, Export to PDF, and Import from Word features, both when they are used from the editor and via REST API.
We are extremely happy to share with you this highly demanded feature, and we cannot wait to listen to your feedback!
Make sure to visit our builder or documentation to learn more about the feature.
The V2 version of the export to Word feature introduced significant improvements, optimizations, and fixes. This update enhances the overall performance, making the export process faster and more reliable, especially for large documents. Key improvements include better handling of table borders, automatic detection of Word styles from CSS, and support for more text-related CSS properties, ensuring your documents maintain their intended formatting.
Starting this version, the V2 configuration becomes the default in the ExportWord plugin. Make sure to migrate your configuration if you are using it.
We have introduced multiple enhancements to make the sidebar more accessible. Among other improvements, you can now use the <kbd>Shift</kbd>+<kbd>Ctrl</kbd>+<kbd>E</kbd> keystroke to move focus from the editor marker to the active annotation. When your comment reply is ready, you can quickly submit it using the new <kbd>Ctrl</kbd>+<kbd>Enter</kbd> shortcut. Also, navigation from one annotation to another is now possible by using arrow keys.
The full lists of keyboard supported actions can be reviewed in our Accessibility support guide.
This release brings notable bug fixes and improvements to enhance your editing experience.
