Changed: In the IEP Goals and Objectives form, the footer had been adjusted from 2.3 cm to 1.5 cm giving slightly more room for text. 6.

Unfortunately, however, many printers are unable to scale legal to letter sized paper. If the printer is unable to do so, a message will be presented in SilhouetteResource.

A tutorial is available at duetsoftware.ca. 8. Changed: automatic references to the floppy drive have been deleted from SilhouetteResource.

New: AIP forms - upon saving an AIP file, you will be give the option of saving a new file with the current date or overwriting the file with its original date. 13. Changed: In the IEP Goals and Objectives form, in the printout of the form, the box containing the Priority Goals text will expand to allow all the text to be shown. 14. New: In ESL Matrix Additional Comments edit window, there is available a Quicktext dropdown as an alternative to storing text in a comment base. This text is editable via SilhouetteResource Utilities. 15. New: new form - ESL/LAC Student Plan and Timetable form 16. New: Resource.dat files and Master.dat files created with TurboSchool or eSIS are encrypted when imported into SilhouetteResource. 17.
