Description |
|
1957 |
Fixed a small problem with the Mimaki driver that prevented it from printing more than 2.5m in length. |
|
1973 |
Fixed a crash caused by mousing over the ink keys in the InkKeyViewer while an image is still loading in SoftProof. |
|
1987 |
Fixed a bug where uploading a valid ICC in the Pagesetup would error. |
|
1993 |
Fixed the ink limit checker for multi ink limits which checks that valid values have been entered. |
|
1995 |
Fixed a bug where sometimes inverting a curve in the Gradation editor would result in values greater than 100% |
|
2003 |
Fixed a bug where PDF/PS jobs containing RGB images would pass through a Pagesetup when "Fail jobs that contain RGB images" was enabled. |
|
2019 |
Fixed a bug which would crash the Client if you quit it while a job was loading in SoftProof. |
|
2021 |
Fixed a bug where it was possible to get the Client into a confused state and crash it if you have no configurations set and you create new ones without saving. |
|
2025 |
Fixed some bugs with Windows/Mac installed printers. When printing to an installed printer the job would report as "failed printing" but the job still printed correctly. Also fixed a problem where some USB printers would not work from Windows XP and Vista. |
|
2031 |
Fixed a bug with the Windows installed printer where an extra line of data would be printed at the end of the job. |
|
2035 |
Fixed a bug in SoftProof where pressing L for Loupe while in full screen mode would pop the last active window to the front. |
|
2037 |
Fixed a bug in SoftProof where the paper colour name in the channel viewer was not being cleared when selecting a press config with no paper colour set. |
|
2039 |
Fixed a bug in SoftProof where toggling between full screen and previous size did not return to the previous size. |
|
2047 |
Fixed a problem where version 4 monitor ICC profiles would not work. |
|
2051 |
Fixed a bug in the Spectrophotometer where a loaded special colour set would not unload when "None" was selected. |
|
2061 |
Fixed a bug when viewing spreads in SoftProof. Double clicking on one of the pages highlighted in the page viewer would resort to having one page highlighted but the spreads still viewed. |
|
2063 |
Fixed a bug in SoftProof where the unsharp mask failed to work on the whole job after rotation. An error also occurred reporting "Failed while writing scanline xxx". |
|
2081 |
Fixed a bug in the Pagesetup where, when using an N-colour device link profile, the CMM was still checking the conventional ICC profiles and failing to render as the colourspace did not match. |
|
2085 |
Fixed a bug in the ICC tweaker where selecting an ICC and choosing "Upload ICC' failed. Also fixed some other minor bugs and improved general use. |
|
2143 |
Fixed a couple of bugs in the Archiver which would cause a software error when attempting to restore setups. This occurs when duplicating outputs, archiving, then deleting and restoring the outputs. |
|
2161 |
Fixed a bug where device link profiles failed to work with N-colour pagesetups. |
|
2171 |
Fixed a bug where the page navigator in Softproof and QueueManager would display thumbnails partly off screen if the window was flush with the side of the monitor. Now it checks the screen dimensions and displays it on screen. |
|
2183 |
Fixed a bug in SoftProof where it was possible to set the paper colour in the Press settings to the ICC profile without selecting an ICC. This produced a black image on PPC Macs. We now ignore paper colour setting if there is no ICC selected. |
|
2187 |
Fixed a bug where windows sizes were restricted where an instrument was used. After selecting the instrument the size sometimes increased and would never decrease. |
|
2215 |
Fixed a bug in SoftProof where sometimes cancelling a job midway through doing an effect would cause the thumbnail to get out of step with the job |
|
2219 |
Fixed a bug where the thumbnail views on a Pagers could cause the Client to crash if displaying them quickly. Also when in Print Gallery mode rapid scroll would cause some thumbnails to appear missing or black. |

Description |
|
1179 |
Added a test strip and reading module to check output accuracy for printer and monitor. Also prints to an online label printer. |
|
1243 |
Improved the printing of paginated text from the HTML job info and Workbench info windows. It now makes sure that the page breaks occur at text boundaries and not arbitrary sections. This would previously cause half lines to be printed at the bottom and top of pages. |
|
1261 |
Added support for the X-rite DTP 70 Spectrophotometer. When using this you need to make sure that the strip is placed in the middle of the reading plate and the arrow on the job is lined with that on the device. |
|
1781 |
Added an alignment guide tool in SoftProof so you can check for alignment of elements in the job. |
|
1791 |
Added the ability to apply anamorphic scaling to a job in SoftProof. This is used for distortion simulation. |
|
1797 |
Rewrote the Lineariser application to make it more efficient and accommodate a new history section so trends can be tracked. The wizard has been removed and only one window appears. |
|
1859 |
Added a DotGain curve option in SoftProof for the reverse page viewing to simulate printing on a sheet that has something on the reverse side. |
|
1949 |
Added a "Hold after Rendering" option. |
|
1961 |
Added an ink limit warning in the InkKeyViewer section of SoftProof where you can set a limit and view only the areas that exceed this limit value. |
|
1963 |
Added some more enhancements to the SoftProof Press section. These include back page opacity, back page dot gain, paper stretch and maximum ink weight. |
|
1975 |
Added support for the HP T1100. |
|
1977 |
Added support for the HP z6100. |
|
1981 |
Rewrote SoftProof with a new layout which includes new floating tools and preference windows. Needed to accommodate new SoftProof features. |
|
1985 |
Changed the InkKeyViewer Press settings to display as HTML as these are just for view and not configuration. |
|
1989 |
Added an enhancement to the HTML job info section which displays the replace colours that are used if a set is selected. |
|
1999 |
Added the ability to linearise N-colour setups. |
|
2007 |
Added the ability to print key values from the InkKeyViewer. Also changed the ink key size to allow a user configurable value. |
|
2033 |
Added support for monitor specific ICC profiles when using multi-screen setups. |
|
2041 |
Added an option in the Paper Profiler to only print the patches that are turned on. |
|
2045 |
Added the ability to zoom to any value in SoftProof. |
|
2049 |
Added support for the Spyder2 monitor calibrator. |
|
2057 |
Added an ink weight calculator as part of the InkKeyViewer for calculating the amount of ink needed for a particular job. |
|
2065 |
Improved consistency with zoom (larger/smaller) keys across the interface. These varied from SoftProof to increasing the drop spot size. Now Macs use apple + - and Windows will use CTRL + - |
|
2067 |
We now show sub windows under the Client > Windows menu item. For e.g., the InkKeyViewer is a sub window of SoftProof. This will now be displayed after a separator, allowing you to select it. |
|
2069 |
Added new paper types for the Epson 4800/7800/9800 printer series in the custom print settings. |
|
2075 |
Added more default zoom settings in SoftProof. These include Fit All, Fit Width, Fit Height and Print Size. |
|
2079 |
Added the ability for the user to specify their own DPI settings for each monitor connected. The default is to get the value from the system but the user can enter their own. This affects the zoom view when in SoftProof. |
|
2083 |
Improved consistency with tick boxes and how they work when used for things like curves and ink key colours (i.e. multi tick boxes that work together). |
|
2087 |
Added support for the Epson 4880/7880/9880 and 4450/7450/9450 printers. |
|
2091 |
Added a Touch Console application which provides support for touchscreens. This is used for the SoftProof functions. |
|
2093 |
Added additional saving preference files when hitting OK in the SoftProof settings. These preference files are used to restore views on the next job loaded. |
|
2099 |
If creating a Tweak Set through a Pagesetup, the new set will auto assign the ICC profiles that are selected in the Pagesetup. |
|
2103 |
Added support for the Epson 11880 printer. |
|
2105 |
Added a zoom level indication to the Loupe in SoftProof. Also changed job info in SoftProof to show both jobs when viewing spreads. |
|
2107 |
Improved the Notes in SoftProof to work properly if viewing spreads. Notes attach to the correct page so they can be viewed in spreads and single page mode. |
|
2113 |
Added Black Point Compensation support to the ICC section of Pagesetup. |
|
2121 |
Removed some old printer drivers. |
|
2123 |
Grayscale images are now treated as black channel so tht CMYK colour management is used. |
|
2129 |
Improved the Cluster Manager by making the removal of Slaves easier, with clearer menu options. Previously it could be misleading. |
|
2135 |
Added some new shortcuts to the QueueManager for View Imaged (CTRL+L) and View Rendered (CTRL+SHIFT+L) |
|
2137 |
All menu items are now sorted alphabetically. |
|
2147 |
Added support for printing calibration accuracy from the test strip to a label printer. |
|
2151 |
When matching special colours, trailing spaces in the plate names are now ignored. |
|
2153 |
Added a monitor calibrator reminder that pops up on the appropriate display that needs recalibration. The time is set in the user preferences. |
|
2159 |
Added a check when the Client is launched for valid CMS configurations. If there are errors the user is prompted to correct them before continuing. |
|
2167 |
Added a Publication mode to the QueueManager to sift only jobs forming part of a publication and hide others. |
|
2189 |
Added the ability to change the ICC profiles selected in the Pagesetup when a device link profile is selected. The normal ICC's are now used if a job is sent to a Pagesetup that has a device link selected but the job does not match the colourspace. Previously, the rendering failed. |
|
2193 |
Duplicate names are now checked for and prevented when creating a new name in the Workbench items. You are now prompted to change it. |
|
2199 |
Added Press Settings to the FlipBook. |
|
2205 |
Added a Calcheck Managed option to System Settings which displays a floating monitor calibration status window on top of others. |
|
2209 |
Added support for colourspace type ICC profiles for LAB <-> RGB conversion. |
