ArtPro+ companion application

• This release of ArtPro includes a first version of the new editor that Esko is developing based on a brand new 64 bit application framework.
• At this stage ArtPro+ is a 'companion application' of ArtPro with limited functionality focused on quality control of artwork and separations.
• Frequent updates of ArtPro+ will be released each time extending its functionality to gradually cover all key functions of ArtPro. This will allow you to become familiar with the new editor and decide when the time is right for you to switch from ArtPro to ArtPro+.
• ArtPro+ currently uses the same software license as ArtPro 14. Only one license is required to run both applications on the same computer.
