Notes
1. Reports on older drawings are not imported. However, they can be regenerated once labels have been imported.
2. There might be slight calculation differences between the older and newer versions of Artisan. This is due to rounding and should not be significant.
3. In older versions of Artisan the labels
relating to symbols (as opposed to lengths and areas) did not link to objects on
the drawing. Therefore they will be imported into the newer Artisan as a "Fixed
Quantity" label.
