Dear All.

Serif (Europe) Ltd. is pleased to announce the release of a patch for PagePlus X3 (build number 13.0.7.030).

The main purpose of the patch is to resolve a number of issues discovered/fixed after the release of PagePlus X3 13.0.6, for which we apologise.

We would recommend that ALL users of PagePlus X3 (English) download and install this patch. To work out if you need this patch choose "About PagePlus X3" in the help menu and if the version number is 13.0.6.026 or less then you need this patch.

Serif recommend that patching should be done within the program, by using the "Check for update from web" option in the Help Menu of PagePlus X3. This will always get any available patch for your version of Serif software (CD or download) and install it too. The downloads page www.serif.com/downloads.asp has the patch also, which is 10.5 MB. The patch for the English download PagePlus X3 is the same as for the English CD version.

A list of the changes/fixes in this patch are listed below, some are phrased in the negative in the database, but are nevertheless fixed ...

• Print dialog detects that printer's duplex settings have changed without restarting PagePlus.
• Fixed problem with Metafile borders not joining properly.
• Fixed Table in respect of changes in locale affecting table formulae. (eg decimal separator representation).
• Fix for auto-fill with CR/LF characters. Table AutoFill used to lose hard returns.
• Fix for spurious error message on Drag and Drop of SerifMetaFile from Explorer.
• Table, entering ROUND() into table with no parameter caused crash.
• Specific WDP image files caused crash.
• Copy and Paste of embedded CMYK EPS – image was converted to RGB. Problem with PDF export image quality when publishing with a 200dpi profile / low JPEG quality settings.
• Fixed possible memory corruption due to not enough memory being allocated for bitmaps with depth less than 8 bits.
• PagePlus X4 file with Photo Adjustments opened in X3 no longer causes crash.
• Fix for 'Browse' dialog crash in Windows 7.
• SMF quality in media bar improved.
• Fixed problem with too many random EXIF and / or IPTC tags in the MediaBar search area.
• Drawing images at 100% now more reliable.

As well as all the issues fixed in the PagePlus X3 13.0.6 patch, and all previous patches. This software patch is the only patch you need to apply, no matter what version of PagePlus X3 you are currently running. There is no need to uninstall any previous patch before installing this patch.
