4.2.0.1
Patch: If the last form in Tree is
a multi-page form, and the 1st form/page is being viewed. Pressing the
PREV button would not show the LAST page of the last form (unless it
was expanded).
Enhancement: Email changed forms only either in BLK or pdf format.
Patch: Changed wording of pop-up dialog for GDI print job below.
Patch:
If a large GDI print job is sent to the printer and BEFORE it
completely gets to the spooler, the user submits another job,
exceptions were being thrown on the initial job and aborted. Now, the
user is informed that a current job is getting sent to the printer and
told to try again momentarily. This has been a problem since supporting
GDI and only seen as a problem by tech support.
Patch: SMTP email changed as PDF (only changed now sent instead of ALL).
Patch: When CRC was done within DMW, only the fill was checked. Now, form AND FILL will be checked within DMW.
Patch: Page count of loan set when tree is partially off the viewable area. Line 525 Blkumnt source code.
Patch: If TOP worksheet node is selected and user selects.. 'Print Selected', then all nodes will print.
Patch: If all forms are deleted and PRINT Remaining is selected w/GDI printing. Nothing will print.
Enhancement: Handled exception when a template form can't be loaded while building the DSP tree.
Enhancement:
SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows Messaging Subsystem\MAPI must = 1 in order
for MAPI emailing to work. Implemented a warning when MAPI emailing.
Enhancement:
Removed the duplication of the creation of the DSIdownload object and
remoterequest object at startup. RemoteRequst object renamed to WebDocs.
Patch: If a node is deleted, and print ALL is selected, then the first node is selected.
Patch:
PCL Parse changed FontSize setting from Integer to FLOAT. Some new
forms without without source use fonts pt size = 9.5 (Mchfa.dot).
Patch:
Forms where the LAST fill data on the page was compressed, annotations
would ALSO be compressed when GDI printed. HMI is now set to 12
(12/120th inch or 10 CPI).
Patch: FormFeeds removed from forms AND Fill data.
Patch:
Re-enabled the reloading of the printer driver while GDI printing
however, ignore the exception if one is thrown while printing since
without reloading, some printer drivers will still abort the job.
Patch: Register the version on START up of docmaster.
Patch:
Removed the reloading of the printer driver while GDI printing in
GDI_PageSetup. This was implemented when print selected sent EVERYTHING
to the printer as a single job.
Enhancement: More error trapping when stream printing.
Patch: Printing of a single PCL file.
07/21/06
4.1.0.0
Enhancement: When retrieving WebDocs, the progress bar (and window
resizing) is ONLY displayed when files larger than 750k are being
downloaded. This is larger than the maximum XML file, but smaller than
the smallest blkument.
Patch: The print dialog will NOT be displayed if all forms have been deleted and the root node is selected for printing.
Enhancement: Placed components in WebDocs window onto a panel with borders for cosmetic reasons.
Enhancement: Progress bar now expands the window when any download is occurring.
Enhancement:
Keeping the user from resizing of this form was redesigned to capturing
the form messages instead of using form constraints.

resetting the WebDocs registry setting to the NEW url.

Enhancement: Enabled WindowsME support.
Enhancement:
If Docmaster was being blocked from the DocMagic website, a HTML page
was being returned to the user stating an 'Error parsing' message. Now,
the html error message is displayed in the default browser.
Enhancement: Removed OSChecking in PrinterString unit.
Patch: Re-associations were NOT being created if the application was moved and a newer version was executed.
Enhancement: Local Printer redirected to network port now displays the printer name in the printer dialog, not the DRIVER.
Enhancement: Internet Explorer version is displayed in the 'About' dialog. The XML parser requires 6.0 or higher.

associations made in HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\

Patch: While viewing a page, LastPage, was occasionally incorrectly grayed.
Patch: When printing multiple sets, subsequent sets was turning DUPLEXING off.
Patch: Print jobs now support null byte data. This was causing pre-mature termination of the print job.
02/27/06
4.0.12
Patch: Print selected now begins at the TOP of the tree looking for
nodes selected. A problem was encountered if the FIRST node selected
was at the bottom. Since the print selected submits all forms as a
single job, we no longer support the printing of the forms in the order
in which they are selected.
Patch: Addendum printing. If user
chose 'PRINT ON LEGAL' and the form was LETTER, the Addendum also
needed to print LEGAL (The fill may have a page size command in it that
may keep the last page from printing LEGAL).
02/20/06
4.0.9

Enhancement: Print selected, whether GDI printing or PCLDirect submits the print job as a SINGLE job to the printer.
