NOTE: A while back we had thought Prawn was close to a 1.0 release and cut a couple pre-releases with that in mind. We later decided that we weren’t quite ready for 1.0, and went back to 0.x numbering. The notes below are all included in the 0.13.0 release notes, but they have been preserved here for historical purposes. Please note that the Prawn 1.0.rc1 and Prawn 1.0.rc2 are completely unsupported. Use the official gems instead!
