I upgraded from 7.1 to 8.0. I use unstructured only, 100% PDF output. There 
were some bugs that appear to have been fixed in the latest patch. So, I 
can't think of any bugs that are biting me at the moment.

However, there was a problem with lines not breaking properly after em and 
en dashes in an earlier release. The latest release fixed the problem for 
new em and en dashes, but didn't reset the line breaks for those already in 
the document, that were displaying improperly. I had to do a bookwide find 
and replace, replacing em dashes with em dashes, and en dashes with en 
dashes to cause the lines to reflow properly. All is good from then on.
