    We just posted an interseting update: V6.05.7 (only full versions)

    It includes a notable enhancement to the Manage Header&Footer dialog.
    We added the possibility to create a new section and add header&footer to the current section. The enhancement has to be activated using the property ShowSectionOptions.

    There is a new $define in unit WPIOWriteRTF which is active by default. (WRITE_PROP_WPTOOLSOBJ) It avoids problems when saving RTF and opening in Word.

    There is a new handling code for KeepN (Keep paragraph with next). It is a 2 pass system which can be activated in FormatOptionsEx2.

    Also in FormatOptionsEx2 optionally is the mode wpfHideParagraphWithHiddenText. Now paragraphs(!) will be hidden if empty or only contain hidden text.

    The new format option -zap1 will remove the every first byte to convert a two byte stream into singly byte -zap2 will remove every second byte. Usie this option when loading data from unicode data sets.

    There are also some bugfixes, notable a fix for table loading in RTF.
