The PC-Topp Label Designer and Label Print Server can now work with JPG and GIF images files in addition to BMP files. The use of JPGs and GIFs makes label printing faster because these file formats are smaller in comparison to BMPs.

The new version of the Windows Pallet Labeling System is fully compatible to previous Label Design files (*.pld).

The terminal has two main functions:

• The operator can enter the number of waste sheets for each run of an order, so that the number of sheets arriving in conversion (or, in the case of sheet orders, in shipping) is correct.
• Pallet labels can be printed for each order displayed on the screen. All labels required for the order can be printed with just one click, or the operator can request just one label.

The on-line link to the corrugator had a weak point - it didn't move the remaining runs of the current schedule to new starting times when there were delays. Only the orders in all subsequent programs were kept up-to-date.

The Corrugator Control Program has now been improved so that it keeps up-to-date the starting times of all runs, including the current program, and thus all orders, including the current job, show ending times that are likely to be correct.

So far, the Sales Status of an order could be set so that the order was marked as "blocked" by Sales, for example if credit approval for the customer was still pending. However, nothing kept planners from scheduling those orders on the corrugator or in conversion for future days, when credit approval was expected.

Now a new, stronger lock as been added: Orders that carry the status "forbidden" are marked by a distinctive icon and cannot be scheduled at all. On top of that, they are marked by a purple "haze" wherever they are shown in PC-Topp.
