The headline this release is a fix, not a feature — because the bug it fixes was hitting almost everyone. Alongside it: your integrity certificate is easier to prove and easier to manage, and search got noticeably smarter.
Print and Save-as-PDF, fixed
Printing or saving a document as PDF from the editor could fail outright — any document with a citation, footnote, or figure (which is to say, nearly every real manuscript) rendered as the literal error message "Error rendering document content" instead of your work. Print now goes through the same rendering pipeline as every other export, so citations, footnotes, and figures all show up correctly, bibliography included.
Your integrity certificate, easier to trust and to manage
- The verify link is now on the page. Export to DOCX or PDF and a line reading "Verify authorship: usefolio.co/verify/
<code>" appears right in the document footer — not buried in a metadata dialog nobody opens. If you hand a file to a professor or reviewer, the proof travels with it. - LaTeX exports carry it too. A
.texfile now gets the same verify pointer, written as a comment above\documentclass— readable to anyone who opens the source. - Published certificates can be edited or revoked. Previously, once you published a certificate you were stuck with the sharing choices you made at the time — even changing your mind meant no way back. Now the published card has a Sharing settings control: edit what's disclosed and re-publish, or revoke the certificate entirely, without leaving the document.
Search ranks by relevance, not just citation count
Folio Search's "top" results used to sort purely by citation count, which meant an old, heavily-cited paper could bury a source that's actually on-topic and current. Results now blend semantic relevance, citation count, and recency — the same scoring Discovery Agents already use — so what's most relevant to your query tends to show up first, not just what's most cited.
Also in this release
- Discovery Agents and search stop re-surfacing papers you already own. Library matching is now fuzzy instead of exact, so a paper already in your library is recognized as "already saved" more reliably instead of appearing as a new find.
- For institutions: the course catalog now shows when and where a course meets — the same schedule information the registration page already displayed, now visible while browsing the catalog too.
- For institutions: a failed course no longer counts toward a degree requirement or GPA credit. A transcript-integrity fix — failing grades were, in a specific case, still being counted as satisfying a requirement.
