EMMi 6.8 release notes

27.8.2019

[New]

  • New Office document conversion engine to generate precise previews with Aspose.Total Product Family.
  • New Adobe PDF Library powered PDF Engine for generating high quality previews even with complex overprint in layouts.

[Improvements]

  • (Project Management) Search now includes discussions, asset and proof names as well.
  • (Project Management) Possibility to delete latest proof version. Users who have rights to create proofs can now also delete latest proof version. This is highly requested improvement when accidentally uploading a wrong version to proof or new version to wrong proof.
  • (Project Management) Possibility to browse and create multiple proofs at once. Previously it was possible to create on proof at a time when browsing assets. If multiple proofs are added at the same time, asset’s master file is used.
  • (Project Management) Few small improvements in proof sharing.
  • (Project Management) Improved proof comment rectangle visibility, problems with layouts where lots of red colour.
  • Browser now remembers your selections when collapsing panels around the system.

  • (Admins) Added resolution setting to image conversion settings. Some third-party systems receiving images via API needed specific resolution.

  • Shared links are not anymore ending with underscore. Some third-party systems are automatically deleting underscore if it is the last character and links seem to be broken in those cases.
  • Date field can now be filled manually by typing or copy and pasting.
  • Updated Swedish translations.
  • Other small improvements.

[Bug fixes]

  • Proof commenting focus problems when comparing versions in certain situations fixed.
