SpecsIntact 5.0.0

Many new features in this new version of SI!

First of all, it sounds like a very good idea to uninstall the previous version before installing this version.

It is good to always look over the new features list. From a previous update, one of my clients pointed out to me new features I did not know about for exporting the submittal register, so now I'm going to make sure I do not miss out on any new developments, by taking a closer look at the Readme.txt file. Here are a few of my favorites this time:

• New printer driver for SpecsIntact PDF printer. I'm hoping this solves some recurring error messages I have struggled with. (Will note in the comments under this post.)

• Drag and Drop from SpecsIntact Explorer to Desktop, Windows Explorer or Other Applications, including an Outlook E-mail message.

• Optionally Redline when Tailoring in the SI Explorer. (I'm super excited about this one, because some agencies require all the edits to be redlined.) Select the option to 'Use Revisions' when tailoring to enable this feature.

• SpecsIntact now sorts Reference Identifiers (RIDs) in natural, alphanumeric order, e.g. NFPA 70 appears before NFPA 101 because 70 is a lower number than 101.

• Blank pages for double-sided printing!

Many more.
