This process isn’t perfect and may require the user to download and install the runtime adding a layer of complexity that should not really burden to the average user. There are a number of tricks we have added to the installers to make the Java runtime 8 installation/detection as painless as possible.
PDFsam Basic 3 is written in Java 8 and requires a Java Runtime 8 with JavaFX installed. We decide to implement a batteries included solution, switching to OpenJDK 11 and creating a jlinked version of the Java runtime that is now included in PDFsam Basic 4.0.0. Some of you have written concerned about the new Java policy in which Oracle will not provide free updates to commercial entities as of January 2019. Beside the usual upgrades to the PDF engine and translations, few bug fixes and minor improvements, the main objective was to create a standalone self-contained application. A Few days ago we published the new major version 4.0.0 of PDFsam Basic.
