2.12.1

Pictures pasted from Word

Word puts HTML and RTF on the clipboard. The HTML’s pictures are file:/// links no web page can read; the RTF holds the bytes. The editor always took the HTML, so pasted Word pictures were lost in every release. The pictures now come from the RTF, PNG or JPEG, and the text still comes from the HTML.

Pasted images follow your image settings

Word pictures and data:image sources in pasted HTML now go through your upload handler, or otherwise through the base64 limits added in 2.12.0. A refused or failed image is dropped and the rest of the paste is kept, with one message for the whole paste. Before, one failed upload discarded the entire paste, and with no handler the image became the text [object Blob]. See image storage.

Enter after a centred image

The 2.12.0 fix that stops Enter copying a centred image’s alignment found the new paragraph through the caret, and missed when the caret was not there yet — 2 runs in 30. It now finds the paragraph Enter created: 0 in 60.
