Product Lifecycle Policy
Dynamsoft is committed to providing maintenance and support for a major product version for three (3) years, beginning from the general availability date of the first minor release of that major version.
For example, if v19.0 is the first minor release in the v19 series and is made generally available on March 30, 2025, then all v19 releases (including v19.0 and subsequent minor releases) will be supported until March 30, 2028.
