The new Microversion 7.04 supports all the Dolev 800V family and works with all the front-end platforms.
This new version replaces the official version 5.66.
Important Note: The imagesetter tables might be changed in this version so, it is important to save all the machine parameters on a backup diskette and on hard copy!
