Breaking changes
- drawText, drawBox, drawGraphic, drawStoredGraphic, drawField and the drawCode128-style barcode methods are now text, box, graphic, storedGraphic, field, code11, code39, code128, ean13, interleaved2of5, pdf417, aztec, maxiCode, dataMatrix and qrCode.
- ImageConverter no longer reads BMP, GIF or TIFF files.
- install @zplkit/core and import from "@zplkit/core", "@zplkit/core/jsx" and "@zplkit/core/image". JSX projects set jsxImportSource to "@zplkit/core".
- Node 22 or newer is required, and there are no longer separate CommonJS entries.
- Label and PrinterSetup take options objects with mm() and dots() lengths, drawGraphic takes a graphic object, drawDataMatrix's height is now moduleSize, storeGraphics is now storeGraphic, startField and endField are replaced by add(), and ImageConverter is imported from @zplkit/core/image.
