Hi jmwellborn,
I don’t think anything has changed with the auto-updater. I uploaded the auto-update patches around 4:15 (BST) - I don’t know how that fits in with your timing. A quick test run just after uploading worked as expected for me - I suppose best to just say let us know if you experience problems again.

No that is not the fix for your issue, sorry. It relates to the rasterization of text in PDF export caused by adjustments applied to images or embedded documents (on the same page as the text)
