 - unicode (non limited to ASCII) text can now be provided as metadata [#685](https://github.com/PyFPDF/fpdf2/issues/685)
 - all `TitleStyle` constructor parameters are now effectively optional
 ### Changed
+* [`FPDF.write_html()`](https://pyfpdf.github.io/fpdf2/fpdf/fpdf.html#fpdf.fpdf.FPDF.write_html) now uses the new [`FPDF.table()`](https://pyfpdf.github.io/fpdf2/Tables.html) method to render `<table>` tags. As a consequence, vertical space before `<table>` tags has sometimes been reduced.
 - vector images parsing is now more robust: `fpdf2` can now embed SVG files without `viewPort` or no `height` / `width`
 - bitonal images are now encoded using `CCITTFaxDecode`, reducing their size in the PDF document - thanks to @eroux
 - when possible, JPG and group4 encoded TIFFs are now embedded directly without recompression - thanks to @eroux
+### Removed
+* [`FPDF.write_html()`](https://pyfpdf.github.io/fpdf2/fpdf/fpdf.html#fpdf.fpdf.FPDF.write_html) now uses the new [`FPDF.table()`](https://pyfpdf.github.io/fpdf2/Tables.html) method to render `<table>` tags. As a consequence, it does not support the `height` attribute defined on `<td>` / `<th>` tags anymore, nor `height` / `width` attributes defined on `<img>` tags inside cells, nor `width` attributes defined on `<thoot>` / `<tfoot>` tags.
