WHAT'S NEW:
***** 2.2 (20 Dec 2024) *****
⭐ New features ⭐ 
- Easy Mail Merge:
  1. Send the current sheet/doc as PDF so that the sheet or doc you're currently viewing is converted into a personalized PDF and attached to each email.
  2. Test your mail merge campaign before the big send. Send yourself a sample email to make sure everything looks perfect.
  3. New email status available: opened. Just tick off the option to track emails before the merge so the tool updates your mailing list accordingly each time you open the extension.
- Styles: Ignore certain formats for normal text. Keep existing bold, italic, underline and strikethrough in normal text when changing styles.
- A monthly subscription is available along with the yearly and lifetime plans.

Improved:
- You can now explore more Ablebits add-ons from the corresponding Extensions menu.

Fixed:
- Easy Mail Merge:
  1. Couldn't mail merge if the placeholder font styles differed from the font styles of the placeholder brackets.
  2. Counted sent emails by the To recipients, excluding CC and BCC recipients.
- Styles:
  1. The add-on froze when applying an unsaved style if its elements were edited using the "Update from selection" setting.
  2. Import styles sometimes detected pictures rather than files with styles.
- Couldn't go back to your Drive when browsing for the mailing list after viewing empty Shared drives.
- Minor UX fixes.

***** V2.1 (25 Apr 2024) *****
⭐ New features ⭐
- Easy Mail Merge. Create personalized email campaigns directly from your Google Docs™. Craft your email templates & send them to your mailing list from a selected Google™ table. Each recipient receives a tailored email, making your outreach more effective and efficient.

Improved:
- Styles:
  1. Set up your titles, headings & subtitles in upper case with the corresponding option in the Edit window.
  2. Quickly locate files with styles in Drive™ by their name using the 'Search' field during the import.

Fixed:
- Styles:
  1. Names of style elements disappeared outside the window if a large number was set as an indent.
  2. A blank style could appear, impossible to edit or remove.
- Minor UX and UI fixes.

***** V2.0 (16 Nov 2023) *****
⭐ New features ⭐
- Search & Navigate. Get the lists of all the headings, bookmarks, links, images & tables from your document. Search for specific text and see its every occurrence through the doc. 
- Styles. Apply professional-looking styles to your documents. Create your custom styles or use 20+ pre-supplied sets.

Improved:
- Enjoy the new design :)
- Eraser: a single click on the tool icon now removes the color featured on the icon (the one you select in its drop-down).

Fixed:
- Change case: sometimes changed the font size to 11.
- Sentence case: 
  1. Duplicated parts of the selected text.
  2. Capitalized the 2nd word if there was a leading space before the capital letter in the first sentence of the paragraph.
- Highlight text: errored if a few non-printing characters at the end of the paragraph were selected along with the text.
- Sorting: sorted multilevel lists with images incorrectly.
- Some tools formatted the first word in a paragraph when the cursor was placed at the end of that paragraph. 
- Used to remove images, formulas and bookmarks (if any) keeping only the changed text. Also, reset the superscript and subscript text to normal.

We appreciate that this app doc tool has continued to be free. As a public high school, it is important to have these sorting tools in order to keep our student's name in alphabetical order for organization purposes. Thank you so much.

For being such a basic piece of software it's absolutely not worth paying for. Pathetic that they would allow one use per day then harass you with a paywall. I will never purchase the subscription they're forcing down your throat, ever.

Can't even alphabetize a list correctly. Almost like it shuffles around citations at random.

The functionality responsible for styles does not perform its function. Only basic formatting settings are saved, such as font and size. But many other settings are not saved; for example, almost all paragraph settings are ignored.

What's this nonsense about my free trial expiring? I thought this was a free add-on with paid features, not something requiring a subscription for general use. $43 annually or $100 for this tool's lifespan is too much considering I only use it to quickly alphabetize lists. No, that cute little sale you offered when saying my surprise free-trial was over still did not make it worth it. This saves me some time, but that's all. I'd rather save my money.
