QPC1 went on sale in 1996, almost 25 years ago. Talk about commitment!

It's become sort of a tradition to make QPC2 releases on the birthday of my daughter: exactly 7 years ago QPC2 became free, exactly 4 years ago I released the last version and today I can finally present QPC2 v5!

It has been a gruesome last push to make the exact date, but thanks to Wolfgang Lenerz for making my time plan possible!

Read up on the details here:

Enjoy, Marcel

Congratulations on the v5 release and many thanks for the continued hard work and dedication to this project

Thank you Marcel.

I've installed V5 and from the quick testing it's working fine.

Regards,
Peter.

I have installed QPC2 V5 on Cross Over on my iMac 2020 and it works Very Very Very GOOD Well Done

Thank you very much Marcel!

I think I know how Im going to spend the rest of my Sunday
Thank you, Marcel!

Hi Marcel,

many thanks for this release. I'll get it downloaded and installed as soon as possible, maybe tomorrow. In the meantime, I've sent you a small donation to get yourself a coffee or two.


Cheers,
Norm.

Good idea Norman, I've done the same.

...and me (if he accepts Welsh money...)

Me being me, I thought it'd be a good idea to use the "Microsoft Print To PDF" as default printer on my Windoze 10 system to generate PDFs direct from QPC2. Oops. All it does is generate a "QPC2 Print Job.pdf" file (without asking for filename like it does for other programs) which the PDF reader claims is broken and zero length. Maybe QPC2 treats it as a printer filter (although the USE FILTER option isn't available), or maybe it just needs a different kind of input text? Anyhow, it works fine for the Windows programs, just not QPC2.

No doubt I'm missing something obvious - anyone managed to get it working? Other physical printer drivers, real printers as shown in the screen copy, work OK.
