The iSiloX setup by default installs the iSiloX Clipper application to Internet Explorer, adding an icon to Internet Explorer's toolbar. iSiloX Clipper allows easy conversion of content as the user browses within Internet Explorer. The user can either select part of a page to convert or convert the entire page. In both cases, all applicable options normally available within iSiloX are also available, as well as the ability to follow links.

• (iSiloX) Added support for automatic scheduled conversions within iSiloX when a document list is open and one or more entries have a scheduled conversion that is due.
• (iSiloX) Added Scheduling property page to the Properties dialog for specifying conversion schedules for documents. Each individual document can have one or more schedules for conversion. Schedules can be of the following types:
  • Once: A Once schedule is a scheduled conversion that occurs once at a specified date and time.
  • Daily: A Daily schedule is a scheduled conversion that occurs at a specified time of the day either once every specified number of days or on one or more chosen days of the week every week. A Daily schedule can also have an effective start and/or end date and time.
  • Weekly: A Weekly schedule is a scheduled conversion that occurs at a specified time of the day on a specified day of the week either once every specified number of weeks or on one or more chosen weeks of the month every month.

A Monthly schedule can also have an effective start and/or end date and time.
  • Always: A document with an Always schedule is converted whenever a scheduled conversion occurs such that at least one document entry in the list has a due next conversion time. An Always schedule can also have an effective start and/or end date and time.
• Added <Scheduling> element to the <iSiloXDocument> element for specifying conversion schedules for documents. See .ixl file format for more information.
• (iSiloX) Added options for removing horizontal padding to the Margins property page of the Properties dialog. The available padding options are:
  • Keep all left and right padding
  • Ignore all left and right padding
  • Ignore only left and right padding specified on body
  • Ignore only left and right padding specified on body, division, and paragraph blocks
