Designer concurrent Publish update
Designer Publish is updated in this release to remove the Pause dialog invoked in previous Designer releases when multiple Publish tasks are executed concurrently. Designer Publish now waits silently for the first Publish to complete before completing the next Publish task.

This applies to both Designer Publish from the Publish Wizard and to the Designer Command line publish (DOC1Publish) utility.
 
 
Designer / Generate Thai tone mark support
