EDIT: just checked - the link goes on to say:

"....Patching can be done manually by going to the downloads page OR by using the "Check for update from web" option in the Help Menu of DrawPlus 8. The patch is 14.7 MB in size. This is a patch that updates the installed files and requires that you have installed a CD version (not the download version).

Please note that if you purchased the downloadable version from this site that you will need to use the option "Help>Check for Updates from web" within the program..... "
