Changes in version 0.8.1.9000                      

                 Changes in version 0.8.1 (2026-06-03)                  

New features

  - Added vertical anchoring for the gridify object inside its cell via
    the new vjust slot of gridifyObject() and the object_vjust argument
    of simple_layout(), complex_layout(), pharma_layout_base(),
    pharma_layout_A4() and pharma_layout_letter(). 0 aligns the object
    to the bottom, 0.5 (default) centers it, and 1 anchors it to the top
    of the cell. Most useful for fixed-size grobs such as gt and
    flextable tables. When vjust != 0.5 is used with a fixed-size grob
    the viewport is sized to grid::grobHeight() and the height slot of
    gridifyObject() is ignored. For fixed-size tables, edge values (0 or
    1) place the table directly against the object-row edge; add spacer
    rows in custom layouts or use inset values such as 0.05 or 0.95 if
    nearby text appears too close. Reported and proposed by Monika Beh.
  - Added support for fill_empty = NA in the paginate_table() function.

Bug fixes

  - When fill_empty in the paginate_table() function is a character
    value, the final paginated table now coerces columns to character
    before filling empty cells (#20).

Miscellaneous

  - Added section on pipeline security and PDF searchability to
    README.md, gridify vignette, and transparency vignette.
  - Added the active lifecycle badge to README.md file (#17).
