Graphic Workshop Professional 12 Revision 6
Graphic Workshop Professional 12 has been updated.
In this release:
* *Effects:* Several issues with the Graphic Workshop Effect window as
it applies to animations have been addressed. It hitherto could
produce mangled GIF documents under some configurations of Windows.
* *Save As:* Graphic Workshop's Save As window — as summoned by View,
among others — now references the default file extension field in
Setup. If you enter a file name with no extension, it will append
the default extension to create a legal file name. Note that if you
set File Extension Case in Setup to Lower Case, the file extensions
added by Save As will all be in lower case.
* *Animation Workshop UltraLight:* Graphic Workshop's ancillary
application Animation Workshop UltraLight has been updated to
address some issues with its frame modes, most notably one that
caused it to display spurious frames in animations with Image
objects having negative offset values. Several cosmetic issues
associated with the Respect Frame option have also been nailed.
* *Caption:* Graphic Workshop's default Caption window has been
updated such that its typographic controls — font, font size, text
color and so on — will apply to the entire text field if no text has
been selected. We've heard from a number of users of Caption who
suspected it was broken, as it appears to do noting if no selection
is available.
* *Crop: *The Graphic Workshop crop window has been updated to address
several issues. A cosmetic bug in the Properties window that could
leave spurious selection lines near the example image has been
stomped. A rounding error that caused dimensions set by Properties
to be off by one pixel under some configurations of Windows is no more.
* *EXIF: *The Turbo JPEG processor will now create JPEG files with
EXIF metadata intact if you enable Preserve EXIF Blocks in Setup and
convert or process source graphics having EXIF data.
* *Print 3D:* The Print Dodecahedron and Print Cube windows now
include fields to set the printed characteristics of dashed lines.
It has come to our attention that some Windows output devices — most
notably the Microsoft Print to PDF printer option — can render
dashed lines with tiny spaces between the dashes in question, so the
lines look more or less solid. If you're confronted by such a
device, set the Dashed Pen Mode in one of the foregoing windows to a
non-zero value — five or six works well in most cases.
If you haven't experienced Graphic Workshop Professional 12 as yet,

Announcing Pagan Daybook 12
Pagan Daybook 12 has been released.
We've added new functionality to Pagan Daybook, improved its performance
and generally refined it to better get along with Windows 10 and 11. (We
hasten to add that it still performs admirably under earlier builds of
Windows, all the way back to Windows XP, if you're feeling retro.)
Among the new features and enhancements to Pagan Daybook 12, you'll find...
* ***Quick 64-bit Architecture:* Pagan Daybook is now available in
both traditional 32-bit and leading-edge 64-bit editions. The 64-bit
software is fast, gets along more favorably with Windows and pretty
much never runs into memory issues. We hasten to note that
registering or updating to Pagan Daybook 12 will avail you of a
registration key that works with either edition... or both, if
you're feeling adventurous.
* *Windows 11 Compatible:* The version 11 software has been showing
some decidedly rough edges under Windows 11, and may stop installing
and/or running therein. Pagan Daybook 12 rocks under Windows 11.*
*
* *Observance Database:* Pagan Daybook's oracle of festivals,
observances and holidays has been refined and updated.
* *JPEG Security:* Pagan Daybook's Turbo JPEG library has been updated
to the latest release to address some security issues.
We'd like to urge all users of Pagan Daybook to update to this
release as quickly as possible.
* *Performance: *Addresses a number of GDI and performance issues that
software developers never really stop meddling with.
* *Documentation:* Updates the documentation.

been updated to improve its HTML and address some metrics issues.
