John T Posted August 23, 2019 Share Posted August 23, 2019 Probably a dumb question but I have both the purchased version 1.7.2.141 and the Beta version. My question is which should I be using for production purposes? Prior to the paid for version being released Serif said NOT to use the Beta for production work. I am confused.

walt.farrell Posted August 23, 2019 Share Posted August 23, 2019 Personally, I use Publisher 1.7.2.471. Wasn't .141 a build number for 1.7.1, rather than 1.7.2?

John T Posted August 23, 2019 Author Share Posted August 23, 2019 Well I got that wrong walt.farrell I meant to have put 1.7.2.471. I don't really want to use two different versions, I think I will just stick with the paid for version and wait for the updates. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
walt.farrell Posted August 24, 2019 Share Posted August 24, 2019 That's a perfectly fine approach, unless you've hit a bug that's fixed in the beta and you really want to have it fixed immediately so you can finish a project. Then you just weigh the risks involved in using the beta, and decide what to do.

John T Posted August 25, 2019 Author Share Posted August 25, 2019 Thanks walt.farrell I am going to continue with the production version unless as you say I hit a problem. Your input is as usual a great help. walt.farrell 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
