Version History

5.1 Pro (April 20, 1998)
• Added a new “Directory Scanning” option to the file menu that inserts the contents of a folder or volume onto a label.
• Added support for double-clicking a label icon to create a new label in the “New Label” dialog box.
• The proper document name now appears in background print spoolers such as Apple’s PrintMonitor.
• The “Screen Resolution is Too Low” and “Insert Directory Text into Title Area” warnings can now be turned off by clicking on the “Never show this warning again” check box.
• Fixed an out of memory error on printing. This was causing some printers to print blank pages, especially the HP DeskJet 890 and 870, Epson Stylus Color, and the StyleWriter 4500 printers with PowerMac G3’s.
• Fixed unnecessary updates of the “Layout Tools” toolbar when it was dragged to a new location.
• Fixed bug where fonts would shrink on screen after printing with Adobe Type Manager installed.
• Text display should now more accurately portray the printed output.
• Updated the Plug-In collection that ships with the ULPP in the “Additional Plug-Ins” folder to include many of the new variations that have been requested by ULPP users.
• Other miscellaneous fixes.

5.0.2 Pro (January 28, 1998)
• Added backwards file compatibility with the CD Label Printer Pro version 4.1 and 4.1.1. To open an older file, make sure you have the "CD (Basic)" Plug-In installed, then simply open the file by choosing "Open..." from the file menu.
• Fixed bug that caused the "Type 2 Error" on opening the preferences on some older macs. AppendDITL was not properly loading "itcb' resources. This caused some corruption and display problems. This is a known (but undocumented) bug with the dialog manager that Apple has yet to fix. 
• Fixed bug that caused the "Other Size..." dialog box to crash.
• Upgraded to version 1.5 of the Mercutio MDEF to fix potential crash.
• Rewrote the floating windows implementation for greater compatibility.
• Fixed some line drawing bugs that appeared with certain Plug-Ins.

5.0.1 Pro (December 14, 1997)
• Pictures now print properly on all printers.
• Changing the background color using the pop-up menu now marks a label as changed.

5.0 Pro (December 10, 1997)
• The Ultimate Label Printer Pro combines all of the programs in the old Label Printer Pro Series into one and has support for a virtually unlimited number of label formats using a Plug-In technology. For example, it now supports CD, Zip, SyQuest EZ Flyer, Magneto Optical, Audio Cassette, Jaz, SyJet, and DAT case labels, just to name a few.
• Added support for fully styled rotated text (with multiple sizes, fonts, attributes, and colors) for those labels that use it. 
• Created a floating toolbar that vastly simplifies the interface. It is includes new background color options, as well as picture scaling/manipulation controls.
• Created a whole new interface in general. You now see the “outline” of the label that you are working with. There is no more need for a print preview. You can also type over the pictures in the label.
• It is now PowerPC native, making it up to 5 times faster in drawing/scaling images and using rotated text. Both 680x0 and PowerPC versions are available.
• Added support for Drag and Drop to add picture clippings (and PICT files), as well as Drag and Drop text insertion.
• The Help window is now non-modal, so you can have it open and still be working on a label.
• Added new preferences options.
• Menus now support the Mac OS 8 Appearance Manager and use the Mercutio MDEF 1.3.4.
