New Features
Experimental support for subsetting fonts
Subsetting a font means reducing the font to contain only the glyphs for
the text actually present in the book. This can easily halve the size of the
font. calibre can now do this for all embedded fonts during a conversion. Turn
it on via the 'Subset all embedded fonts' option under the Look & Feel section
of the conversion dialog. calibre can subset both TrueType and OpenType fonts.
Note that this code is very new and likely has bugs, so please check the output
if you turn on subsetting. The conversion log will have info about the
subsetting operations.
EPUB Input: Try to workaround EPUBs that have missing or damaged ZIP
central directories. calibre should now be able to read/convert such an EPUB
file, provided it does not suffer from further corruption.
Allow using identifiers in save to disk templates.
Closes tickets: 1074623
calibredb: Add an option to not notify the GUI
Catalogs: Fix long tags causing catalog generation to fail on windows. Add
the ability to cross-reference authors, i.e. to relist the authors for a book
with multiple authors separately.
Closes tickets: 1074931
Edit metadata dialog: Add a clear tags button to remove all tags with a
single click
Add search to the font family chooser dialog
Bug Fixes

reason only manifested in 0.9.5.
Closes tickets: 1075782
Get Books: Fix Amazon stores, Google Books store and libri.de
Kobo driver: More fixes for on device book matching, and list books as
being on device even if the Kobo has not yet indexed them. Also some
performance improvements.
Closes tickets: 1069617
EPUB Output: Remove duplicate id and name attributes to eliminate pointless
noise from the various epub check utilities
Ask for confirmation before removing plugins
Fix bulk convert queueing dialog becoming very long if any of the books
have a very long title.
Closes tickets: 1076191
Fix deleting custom column tags like data from the Tag browser not updating
the last modified timestamp for affected books

Release: 0.9.5 [02 Nov, 2012]
New Features
Font embedding: Add support for the CSS 3 Fonts module, which means you can
embed font families that have more that the usual four faces, with the full set
of font-stretch and font-weight variations. Of course, whether the fonts
actually show up on a reader will depend on the readers' support for CSS 3.
Sharing by email: Allow specifying an 'alias' or friendly name by which to
identify each email recipient.
Closes tickets: 1069076
Embedding fonts: Allow adding ttf/otf font files to calibre directly to be
used for embedding. That way the fonts do not have to be installed system wide.
You can add a font to calibre via the 'Add fonts' button in the font chooser
dialog for embedding fonts.
E-book viewer: Add the ability to rotate images to the popup image viewer.
Closes tickets: 1073513
Generate cover: Speedup searching the system for a font that can render
special characters

less crash prone that fontconfig/freetype

the family
Bug Fixes

Workaround for bug in the windows API CreateHardLink function that breaks
using calibre libraries on some networked filesystems.
Template editor: Use dummy metadata instead of blank/unknown values
Windows: abort setting of title/author if any of the books' files are in
use. Results in less surprising behavior than before, when the title/author
would be changed, but the on disk location would not.

Release: 0.9.4 [26 Oct, 2012]
New Features
Conversion: Add an option to embed a font family into the book.
The embedded font is used as the base font for all text that does not
specify its own font family in the input document. Works only with output
formats that support font embedding, principally EPUB/AZW3. Option is found
under Look & Feel in the conversion dialog. You can ensure that the font is
used for all text, regardless of the input document's styles by filtering out
font family styles via the Filter Style Information option in the Conversion
dialog.
When changing the title/author of a book, use hard links instead of copying
the books' files, for a large speedup. Only works on filesystems that support
hardlinks.
Linux installer: Resume interrupted downloads and verify the SHA-512
signature of the downloaded file before installing it.
Bug Fixes
Windows: Check if any of the files of a book are in use before changing the
title/author, this prevents the creation of duplicate files if one of the files
is open in another program

Closes tickets: 1069403

font on the system that is capable of rendering the characters
Fix regression that broke certain types of CSS selectors.
Closes tickets: 1068937
Use font-weight:bold instead of font-weight:bolder for the <b> and <strong>
tags as ADE cant handle bolder when embedded fonts are used
