Veripress 7.0 Released

As part of Serendipity Software's ongoing effort to update and improve our software, we are pleased to announce the release of the Veripress version 7.0 Release patch.

Version 7.0 is a free service update for all v6.0.01 users. All version 6 customer dongles will continue to function as normal.

This update patch includes following enhancements and fixes:-

ENHANCEMENTS
- Version 7 introduces new driverless USB dongles. Existing dongles will continue to function as normal.
- Improved Server startup times when a using v7 dongle.
- Improved multi-display support and detection on Linux platforms.
- Linux installations can now configure and use operating system wide ICC profiles using 'colord'.
- Linux platform ICC profiles now include a video card gamma LUT for improved colour fidelity.
- Improved random number generator for CMS dither functions.
- Improved efficiency for periodic server tasks.
- Improved Server installation path discovery for the Serendipity Client.
- Debug tab added to Server Settings to add in product support queries if required.
- Removed Polling Service Refresh option from Server Settings. RIP and Bookfilter polling intelligence added to determine when the next polling needs to occur and sleeping until that time. If a RIP or Bookfilter is edited, the thread wakes up and recalculates the next event time. Previously the polling refresh interval was used to sleep for a fixed time.
- Removed Maximum Memory for PS RIP and Maximum Memory For Rotation options from Server Settings. The operating system now determines memory usage for these functions.
- Improved handling of photoshop tags for TIFF file input.
- Job ID field added to the Slugline render effect.

BUG FIXES
- Published Pagesetups not functioning because a Media was not assigned now reset and function correctly when a Media is assigned.
- Fixed negative/inverted previews for RGB eps ICC Targets.
- Server now recognises no-bit dongles, displaying the dongle status on-screen. Server no longer launches for these dongles.
- Fixed a server crash that could occur if a job failed instantly.
- Fixed a periodic crash that would occur when shutting down the Windows version of the Server.
- Removed 'hexachrome' prefix from Orange and Green ink channel names.
- Fixed a 9 pixel drift in the X axis that would occur on Linux when saving/restoring window positions under Gnome.
- Fixed a Softproof application crash that would occur on Linux platforms when trying to open multiple tabs at once in a new Softproof window.
- Non-alpha Spot colour channels are now skipped for Gray, RGB and Lab photoshop files.
- Fixed a crash caused by adjusting Brightness manually in the Displays application on Mac OS X.
