The version of "Antenna House PDF API" is expressed in "Vn.m" format. The n in "Vn.m" is called the major version, and the m is called the point release version. For example, the major version of " Antenna House PDF API V8.0" is 8 and the point release version is 0. An increase in n in "Vn.m" is called a major version upgrade, and an increase in m is called a point release upgrade.
Note that there is a "maintenance release version" which is different from major version upgrades and point release upgrades. A maintenance release version is a product in which the old and new version numbers (n and m in "Vn.m") are the same and only the release date is new. For maintenance releases, the MR number will be displayed after the version number.
