Ruler guides were a list kept beside the layers. Each guide is now an
object of its layer or sublayer, always directly in it and above the
layer's art. These behave as on main:
- Guides draw on screen only. Exports (SVG, PDF, PNG, PSD), Fit All,
Select All, the art bounds, clicks and marquees, and a layer's
Pathfinder and Transform effects leave them out. The Layers panel
lists them as guide rows of their layer, the highest guide.list
index first.
- Deleting a layer deletes its guides, and merging layers keeps their
guides in the merged layer.
- The guide commands number guides as guide.list does, in the order
they were made.
New: each guide takes an id from the document's object ids. An object
command given a guide's id fails with an error, and node.move cannot
put a guide into a group or out of its layers. A guide made while an
opacity mask, a symbol or a pattern is edited moves to the top
visible, unlocked layer when editing ends.
File format: native files still save the guides in the document's
guides list, in every file version, so older builds read them. Each
entry may now also carry the guide's id, name, locked and hidden
flags; older builds ignore those fields. Opening a file puts each
saved guide on its layer (on the top visible, unlocked layer when the
file names none or a layer it does not have), and each saved guide
counts against the object limit for opening a file. A ruler guide node
that a file holds below a layer's art moves up to the layer's guides,
and one anywhere else (in a group or another object, beside the
layers, or in a symbol) is removed. Ruler guides read from an .ai file
become guide objects on the layer they were on, numbered in the order
the file lists them.

Rarely set fields move into one optional boxed NodeExtras, and large NodeKind payloads (images,
live shapes, blends, envelopes) are boxed. Every object, and every undo step that copies it,
shrinks: a 50k-path move keeps ~24.5 MB per step instead of ~40 MB. Files stay byte-identical
(Node keeps its flat JSON through a borrowed Serialize and a from-wire Deserialize, no flatten),
and loading is slightly faster. Undo and redo reuse their step's size estimate instead of
walking the document again (8.3 -> 5.6 ms for a 50k-path move).

document.export {format: "psd"} writes layered bitmaps (8 bits per channel),
written from the format's public specification: RGB, CMYK (ink amounts) or
grayscale, the resolution and an embedded profile, PackBits channels, and the
merged image (the flat render). layers (default true) draws each top-level
layer alone as a pixel layer, cropped to what it paints, with its name,
opacity and blend mode; a background colour becomes a Background layer.
maxEditability turns layers and sublayers into groups and every object into a
layer named as the Layers panel names it (text by its text); clipping, masked,
knockout or appearance-carrying layers stay one layer. hiddenLayers writes
hidden layers hidden instead of leaving them out; layers: false writes a flat
image on white. At most 30000 pixels a side.
Export As offers PSD with the psdOptions dialog (the PNG Options rows, then
Color Model, Flat Image / Write Layers with Maximum Editability and Include
Hidden Layers, Embed ICC Profile). Tests read the files back with the psd
crate (MIT OR Apache-2.0, a dev-dependency).
