Printing
History. New editions are complete revisions of the manual. The dates
on the title page change only when a new edition is published.
The software code printed alongside the data indicates the
version level of the software product at the time the manual or
update was issued. Many product updates and fixes do not require
manual changes and, conversely, manual corrections may be done without
accompanying product changes. Therefore, do not expect a one-to-one
correspondence between product updates and manual updates.
