Details per variant:

General - Viewer enhancements

New features for the Viewer and all other variants:

Selection of graphical objects that are bigger or smaller than a given value. This can be combined with other selection filters such as layers or object types.
Zoom-in and -out is now centered on the actual cursor position.
Panning is available with ALT+right mouse button.
Display of version number of CAM format in properties dialog is nothing is selected, actual version of CAM format is 1.1
Support of HP-GL pen width (PW) commands
Automatic color assignment for new created layers
Preview / World View: When you zoom deeply into a big layout it is often not easy to track the current global position. The world view always tells you where you are. Otherwise when a layout from the library view or a tool from the tool view it selected a preview of the selected element is displayed.

Similar to previous Lite and PCB variant

New dialog to create base material and fixture holes
Optimized tool-path generation for insulate jobs
Updated Combine and Combine to Polygon function. User can now define a minimum gap between paths to combine. At the end a statistic of the results is given.
Added path manipulation operators (move, add, delete, cut, ...) in context menu
Tool compensation function as a separate available low level CAM operation
Extended layer selection for export tasks for all layers and all visible layers (v 7.0.1)
Fixed minor issues with HP-GL and DXF export
Tool compensation: Calculates the offset curve for a given boundary curve
Cancel button together with progress bars in long running calculations
Improved manual control and editing of the ordering (sequence) of tool paths

Similar to previous PCB variant, but now with Laser insulate and fill support

Export to HP-GL with variable tool-width command to drive Laser machines with variable Laser aperture within a given range.
Updated import of compressed and bundled ODB++ files (tar, format, extension *.tgz)
Customizable batch jobs functionality with geometry engine
Export to Postscript (v 7.0.1)

Similar to previous Laser variant

GMC library now integrated with the general library function for footprints
After Package recognition an associated optimized footprint can automatically be inserted to replace the original footprint.
Libraries can be shared by several users on a network drive
Export of layout instances in a configurable CSV (comma separated values) format
Package recognition: Information which packages & types actually be used for recognition is stored independently from the library file.
Library: Statistic dialog, displaying the number of objects per type and category
Creating footprints from footprint occurrence via GMC
Enhanced property view to display info about the selected layout or layout instance
