Release notes 

Manual banding has been updated to allow for box group merging and the creation of free text boxes in empty space (no borders required). Page corners can now be solid boxes instead of corner lines. An update to the queXML PDF generation functions will mirror this change. OCR (in addition to ICR) can be enabled (using tesseract) to allow for printed numbers to be read from the form (including as page 'barcodes'). A secondary position for page barcodes can also be defined if you wish to place them in different places on different forms. Many bugs have also been fixed. Damien Zammit has contributed improvements to the ICR functionality including improving the detection algorithm and implementing smarter aspect ratio conversions.
