Reply to: TOPLEAF: Guidelines for upgrading from version 6 to version 7 of the plugin
April 26, 2012 at 8:06 pmSeveral points:
(1) Upgrade for existing v6 users is free. Contact JustSystems for v7 license keys, preferably before you start upgrading. I will ask JS if they wish to address this issue directly.
(2) As you pointed out, the watermarking is a property of the stylesheet, not the system running it. If the stylesheet was created on a fully licensed system, then it should continue to run without watermarking on any TopLeaf Plugin (licensed or not). However, if you change the stylesheet on a basic (unlicensed) system, then you could well see watermarking. Therefore, do not access the stylesheets until you have installed the new keys.
[However, if all you did was upgrade a basic system and try to run a job without touching the stylesheet, then I will need to have a closer look!]
(3) The v7 Plugin can run v6 stylesheets, but the reverse is not true (ie. v6 cannot use v7 stylesheets). In particular, you should NOT have to re-open the stylesheets in v7. They should just work. Get back to me if this is not the case or if the above explanations do not work for you.
