August 12, 2026

DNG exports via /v2/edit now support CAI/C2PA signing, consistent with existing JPEG and PNG export paths.
/v2/edit now accepts an optional preset boolean on XmpOutput to generate a portable Lightroom preset instead of a plain XMP sidecar.

Resolved a crash in /v2/generate-manifest when processing PSDs containing Color Lookup adjustment layers.
Corrected /v2/edit to apply XMP crop correctly, returning the cropped image.
Resolved /v2/execute-actions request failures caused by file paths exceeding the maximum allowed length.

Gradient fill layers are now included in the /v2/generate-manifest response with full gradient properties such as angle, type, scale, and color stops.
XMP metadata from embedded smart object layers is now included in the /v2/generate-manifest response when includeXmp is set.
Group and artboard layers can now be exported as PSD files with the full layer hierarchy preserved.
CAI-compatible PNG exports are now supported alongside JPEG for C2PA-signed outputs.
/v2/create-artboard now accepts an optional name field on each images array entry to set explicit artboard names.

Improved error reporting for layer transform operations that exceed output size limits — now returns a descriptive layer_operation_failed error instead of an opaque unknown error.
Corrupt or truncated PSDC inputs now return a structured FILE_CORRUPTED or FILE_FORMAT_UNSUPPORTED error instead of propagating an unhandled exception.
Corrected smart object placement via /v2/create-composite — source images are no longer stretched to fill the canvas when added.
