+## 3.12.0
+
+Release date: 14-04-2022
+
+#### Overview
+We're glad to announce that Spark OCR 3.12.0 has been released!
+This release comes with new models for Handwritten Text Recognition, Spark 3.2 support, bug fixes, and notebook examples.
+
+#### New Features
+
+* Added to the ImageTextDetectorV2:
+  * New parameter 'mergeIntersects': merge bounding boxes corresponding to detected text regions, when multiple bounding boxes that belong to the same text line overlap.
+  * New parameter 'forceProcessing': now you can force processing of the results to avoid repeating the computation of results in pipelines where the same results are consumed by different transformers.
+  * New feature: sizeThreshold parameter sets the expected size for the recognized text. From now on, text size will be automatically detected when sizeThreshold is set to -1.
+
+* Added to the ImageToTextV2:
+  * New parameter 'usePandasUdf': support PandasUdf to allow batch processing internally.
+  * New support for formatted output, and HOCR. 
+ocr.setOutputFormat(OcrOutputFormat.HOCR)
+ocr.setOutputFormat(OcrOutputFormat.FORMATTED_TEXT)
+
+* Support for Spark 3.2:
+  * We added support for the latest Spark version, check installation instructions below.
+  * Known problems & workarounds:
+[SPARK-38330](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-38330): S3 access issues, there's a workaround using the following settings,
+
+```
+//Scala
+spark.sparkContext.hadoopConfiguration.set("fs.s3a.path.style.access", "true")
+
+#Python
+spark.sparkContext._jsc.hadoopConfiguration().set("fs.s3a.path.style.access", "true")
+```
+
+[SPARK-37577](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-37577): changes in default behavior of query optimizer, it is already handled in start() function, or if you start the context manually, setting the following Spark properties,
+```
+#Python
+spark.conf.set("spark.sql.optimizer.expression.nestedPruning.enabled", False)
+spark.conf.set("spark.sql.optimizer.nestedSchemaPruning.enabled", False)
+```
+
+* Improved documentation on the website.
+
+#### New Models
+
+ocr_small_printed: Text recognition small model for printed text based on ImageToTextV2
+ocr_small_handwritten: Text recognition small model for handwritten text based on ImageToTextV2
+ocr_base_handwritten: Text recognition base model for handwritten text based on ImageToTextV2
+
+#### Bug Fixes
+
+* display_table() function failing to display tables coming from digital PDFs.
+
+#### New notebooks
+
+* [SparkOcrImageToTextV2OutputFormats.ipynb](https://github.com/JohnSnowLabs/spark-ocr-workshop/blob/3120-release-candidate/jupyter/TextRecognition/SparkOcrImageToTextV2OutputFormats.ipynb), different output formats for ImageToTextV2.
