 The OCRmyPDF package itself does not contain a public API, although it is fairly stable and breaking changes are usually timed with a major release. A future release will clearly define the stable public API.

+v5.4.4
+------
+
+-   Support for Python 3.5 is now deprecated and will be removed at the end of 2017
+-   Adding previously unlisted setup requirement, pytest-runner
+-   Fix issue #200, an uncommon syntax for formatting decimal numbers in a PDF would cause qpdf to issue a warning, which ocrmypdf treated as an error. Now this the warning is relayed.
+-   Fix an issue where intermediate PDFs would be created at version 1.3 instead of the version of the original file. It's possible but unlikely this had side effects.
+-   Update documentation: fix an error in the example script for Synology with Docker images, improved security guidance, advised ``pip install --user``
