neoStampa v24.6
June 2024
We are changing the versioning of neoStampa Delta to Calendar Numbering.
This means our users will see a significant jump in the version numbering of the new release, from neoStampa Delta v10.2.9 to neoStampa Delta v24.6 (Year and month of the release).From now on, any new scheme (Calibration package) created in neoStampa Delta v24 will ONLY be compatible with the version it was created in and all future version releases, and it will NOT be compatible with earlier versions. Once updated, you will always be able to use an old scheme in more recent versions to continue printing under the same conditions.
Some details about the semantics of our numbering system: we are using two digits for the year, one or two digits for the month (Depending on the current month), and the last digit for the release updates.
