New File Format

Starting Jan 1, 2009, all the released PageFocus products are native unicode programs. The saved file formats (including .pf, .xdb, .xrc files and other file types) have been completely revised to support unicode. These new programs reads and executes all the files saved by the older versions (i.e., backward compatible). However, if saved by the new programs, they are saved in the new unicode format and the resulting files will not be readable to the older versions of the programs.

PageFocus Upgrades

For licensed uses, same major version upgrade (for example, from 6.1 to 6.2) is free.  You can just install the new version. The new program automatically recognize your existing license code and you do not need to enter the code.

Upgrading from lower major version (for example, from 5.x to 6.x) is free if you purchased the product within the past 12 months. Please email support1@pagefocus.com with your user name and serial number to obtain a new code.

Otherwise, you are required to pay a small upgrade processing fee (approximately 1/3 of the original price). Please go to the Purchase/Upgrade link to order online.

A word of caution for installing upgrades:

If you modified any of the sample forms in the original installation location (same directory) and if you intend to continue to use them, please save those forms in a different location. The installation will overwrite sample files.
