Symptoms
When creating output for an Esko DFE prior to 5.2.3 (no support for IDP level 2 JDF), the jobs always got a sequence suffix, even if there was only 1 printing frame.
The repeat length was truncated to 0.01 mm precision, possibly causing incorrect repeat lengths.
Issues with positioning blank on sheet (including potential problems with output not being centered).
Inserted empty labels were still containing graphics in case of products with device independent images as unlayered art.
Last row of a VDP step & repeat could be missing.
Lane distribution may be wrong when using empties.
