What is the difference between PA 5.1 and 6.0?

In terms of typesetting features, PA 5.1 and PA 6.0 are identical.

The major difference is that PA 5.1 works only with Paratext 7 projects, while PA 6 works only with Paratext 8 or newer projects. Also keep in mind that PA 6 requires separate registration.
