Automatically detect logical sections in a form
By default, the service creates a separate top-level panel for each page of a PDF form. Now, you can use the Auto-detect logical sections option to drop page level panels (page number-based panels) and create only logical panels. It also clubs the fields which do not belong to any section with preceding logical section and fields of a logical section spread across two adjacent pages into a single logical section. For example, if some fields of a logical section are at the end of page one and some are in the starting of page two, all such fields are clubbed into a single logical section.
Improvements in list detection
The service is now more efficient in detecting bulleted and numbered lists.
