With stable I mean no synchronisation problems the old version did sometimes had. One of the great vitues PV has and I use this very often: able to convert txt => image This is very handy for converting tables and simple ASCII-drawings... all ASCII codes in the 437 code page are OK. Even lines and special caracters. Very fast loading of images, like arachne, and almost all thinkable image formats sustained.
