New Conditional option
During Output Creation, it is now possible to determine the template section to which a sheet
belongs to using the new sheet.sectionName property. This property has been made available
as a conditional option in the Printer Wizard. (SHARED-61275)
NOTE:The introduction of this property introduces a slight risk of compatibility issues, but only
for cases where an existing custom printer definition or Enhance configuration already has a
user-defined property with the exact same name.

Connect will now generate bold, italic and bold-italic variations of most fonts on machines that
do not have those variants of the font installed. (SHARED-59975/60670)
