In the letter I received along with the 2.0a update, Cindy Taylor of Silicon Beach Software Technical Support states "As I promised, enclosed is a new version of SuperPaint which works with the LaserWriter Driver 6.0. It also fixes the problem where filled polygons grow upon saving and reopening a document." So there clearly was more to the 2.0a update than fixing the LW 6.0 incompatabilities. And, while I never pinned the problem down, I found that the unexplained crashes upon saving a document in SuperPaint did not occur after I started using version 2.0a.
