GS1 and ITF-14 Improvements

We improved GS1 application identifiers limitation checking, so it handles more input errors than before. As for ITF-14, we added an option to choose between no decoration of the human-readable text, decoration it with spaces and with dashes. This has been done by a customer’s request, so if you want to improve something in our software - just let us know.

Other Improvements

We fixed partially-broken units of measurements. Sorry about that, everything is working fine now. Some command-line usage issues have been fixed, as well and we’ve also improved presets naming, when it comes to unsupported file name characters like slashes or colons.

That’s all folks, enjoy the rest of your day!
