LAS from 11.02 in other software

I'm having difficulty reading in las exported from GM 11.02 in another software, where previous versions have no issues. I'm told that the output from 11.02 has in the header that its v1.1 las with a record length of 34 bytes, but v1.1 does not have a point format with 34 bytes. Could this be an oversight or error of some kind? GM 10 shows the record length as 28 bytes

I took a look and did discover that v11.02 was writing out larger records than necessary. Really the other software should just ignore any data beyond the end of a record it doesn't know about, but in any case I have corrected v11.02 to write out only what is necessary rather than adding some extra unnecessary data for v1.1. I have placed a new build at http://www.globalmapper.com/global_mapper11.zip with the change for you to try. Simply download that file and extract the contents into your existing v11.xx installation folder to give it a try. If you are using the 64-bit version, there is a new build available at http://www.globalmapper.com/global_mapper11_64bit.zip .
Let me know if I can be of further assistance.
Thanks,
Mike
