AutoForm 4.1.2 is a patch release based on AutoForm 4.1.0/4.1.1. It can be installed
together with AutoForm 4.1.0 and replaces AutoForm 4.0X and earlier versions. There
should be no need to use 4.0 and 4.1 concurrently. If they are used concurrently,
anyhow, certain restrictions will apply. If you intend to use version 4.1 together with an
older major release, such as version 4.0X, please review the following remarks
carefully:
o AutoForm 4.1.2 must be installed in a separate directory (AF_4.1.2) and cannot
be merged with older release versions (for example with version 4.1.0). This will
allow the usage of different releases concurrently with own configuration files for
each release.
o If you changed the default settings for version 4.0X or 4.1.X in one of the
configuration files (for example in AutoForm.cfg) and intend to continue using
these settings with version 4.1.2, you have to redo the changes in the configuration
files of version 4.1.2. Please do not simply overwrite a new configuration file with an
old one, since the new files contain new default settings that were not present in the
older version.
For a typical installation which installs AutoForm 4.1.2 to be run on a local machine
please use the installer choosing a “Typical Installation” (see 3.2 “Installation of
AutoForm 4.1.2”).
If you are already familiar with the AutoForm software and know exactly what you are
doing, it might be more efficient to do a “Custom Installation”.
