# Description of Changes
- **What was changed**
- Updated controller methods to use strongly‐typed primitives (`int`,
`long`, `boolean`) instead of `String` for numeric and boolean
parameters, eliminating calls to `Integer.parseInt`/`Long.parseLong` and
improving null‐safety (`Boolean.TRUE.equals(...)`).
- Enhanced all API request model classes with richer Swagger/OpenAPI
annotations: added `requiredMode`, `defaultValue`, `allowableValues`,
`format`, `pattern`, and tightened schema descriptions for all fields.
- Refactored HTML form templates for “Remove Blank Pages” to include
`min`, `max`, and `step` attributes on numeric inputs, matching the
updated validation rules.
- **Why the change was made**
- **Type safety & robustness**: Shifting from `String` to native types
prevents runtime parsing errors, simplifies controller logic, and makes
default values explicit.
- **Better API documentation & validation**: Enriching the Swagger
annotations ensures generated docs accurately reflect required fields,
default values, and permitted ranges, which improves client code
generation and developer experience.
- **Consistency across codebase**: Aligning all request models and
controllers enforces a uniform coding style and reduces bugs.

# Description of Changes
- **What was changed:**
- Removed explicit constructor definitions annotated with `@Autowired`
across services, controllers, filters, and schedulers.
- Added Lombok’s `@RequiredArgsConstructor` to automatically generate
required-args constructors and eliminate boilerplate.
- Introduced other Lombok annotations (`@Data`, `@Getter`, `@Setter`,
`@EqualsAndHashCode`, `@NoArgsConstructor`) on model and API classes to
replace manual getters/setters and constructors.
- Standardized string comparisons to use the constant-first form (e.g.,
`"value".equals(variable)`).
- Cleaned up unused imports and organized OpenAPI configuration by
extracting default title/description constants.
- **Why the change was made:**
- To reduce repetitive boilerplate code and improve maintainability.
- To leverage Lombok for cleaner, more consistent dependency injection
and data modeling.
- To ensure a uniform coding style across the entire codebase.

# Description of Changes
### What was changed
- Added `zipOut.finish()` to ensure the ZIP file is properly finalized
after writing all entries.
- This ensures the central directory metadata is written, fixing the
issue where the ZIP file was incomplete or broken.
### Why the change was made
- The issue (#2511) reported that splitting a PDF resulted in a broken
ZIP file. The root cause was the missing central directory due to
improper stream finalization.
- Adding `zipOut.finish()` explicitly ensures the ZIP file is correctly
structured and can be extracted without errors.
### Challenges encountered
Closes#2511
