Ace v1.2.1
This is a maintenance release of Ace, the Accessibility Checker for EPUB developed by the DAISY Consortium. Installation instructions and other documentation is available on Ace’s development web site.
Here is an extract from the full changelog:
- The Puppeteer Axe "runner" wasn't handling XML / XHTML correctly with
.html
or.htm
file extensions (the Electron runner was ok already) - The HTTPS self-signed certificate validation procedure for the DAISY Knowledge Base was colliding with the HTTP server used in Ace with the Electron Axe runner.
- There was a random possibility of the Axe script not being ready in time for Ace.
- In case a single publication document causes a fatal error, the whole pool of concurrent validation windows is torn down, which caused timers to fire after disposal and attempt to reload now-defunct windows.
