My principal IDE is RAD Studio (for Delphi) but unfortunately I also have to use Visual Studio a bit. I cannot stand the way VS moves my code around or adjusts my spacing while I am typing it. It is a most unhelpful and distracting feature.

Last year I might have suggested QuickPDF, formerly from Debenu, now from Foxit. But Foxit announced its EOL a few months ago. I also use the PDFIUM wrapper from https://winsoft.sk/pdfium.htm, but this requires the Google PDFIUM DLL separate from your application. They have a demo, and a PDF merge example.

The Docwiki links for new features and fixes in 11.1 are not working (here).

The GExperts formatter seems to do what you ask, here. I have never used the one that comes in the IDE, though.

No need to print from Word, you can automate it to open and 'save as PDF'. And you can do the same with Libre Office, for MS and ODT formats, and there is a library available from https://www.winsoft.sk/libre.htm which can help with this. If installing Libre is as much of a problem for you as installing Word, there is also a library available from https://delphihtmlcomponents.com/office.html which can read Word Documents and can also write PDF, via HTML.

Some of the comments to https://softwareengineering.stackexchange.com/questions/196706/creating-a-coding-standards-document may be relevant. I read into several of them that the best advice is often, "don't try this".

A quick google tells me that VTV 5 dropped support for Delphi 5 and 6, and that the last VTV 4 was 4.8.7, but I have no idea whether this is accurate I have downloads only back to VTV 6.3.

The functions in system.dateutils claim to be ISO8601 compliant. Are you saying that they return the wrong results? WeekOfTheYear has an overload which sets the year as well as returning the week

If your goal is to achieve consistency between local and UTC times which are milliseconds apart, you should start with the UTC time, not the local time. Get the UTC time first. Then use a library such as https://github.com/pavkam/tzdb to derive the local time from it, for the location you require, using the IATA database. If the UTC time happened to be 01:59:59.998 on a changeover day scheduled at 2am, then this library will return the correct local time for this UTC time and location, even if you call it 5ms later. The library also has options to select how you want to handle the edge cases if for some reason you have to start, as in your examples, from the local time. Some days, a local time may occur twice or not at all. There may be other ways to do this without an external library, but using the TZDB gives you flexibility to handle different time zones and DST rules. The fact that you ask for millisecond consistency implies that you may require this extra capability.

Regex Buddy (https://www.regexbuddy.com) is a useful resource for learning and testing Regex. There is a money-back guarantee in case it does not float your boat.

For Windows, MiTeC System Information Component Suite can get every hardware and software detail you can think of, and more; there is also a trial version available. https://www.mitec.cz/msics.html

Take a look at https://www.winsoft.sk/pdfium.htm. It's an inexpensive easy-to-use wrapper for PDFIUM. There are trials and demos at that link.

There is indeed a 'do not show again' checkbox. But normally when I see this dialog it is because I have failed to spot the icon in the toolbar and accidentally opened another IDE instance. So it would be nice to have a 'cancel start-up' option as well!

I would suggest that before you claim to support pmv2 you should add a second monitor which you can run at a different DPI, and test everything. This is the best way to be confident that your users will find no surprises in your software. But even then if the user setup differs from yours, it may not be enough.
