## What does a recipe’s history look like?

One line per save, with when and where it was made. The label printed on Nov 5 names version 4, so it still opens after later changes.

## How does a printed label lead back to its recipe?

Its proof footer names the recipe version and links to it in Studio, so a label on a shelf points to its exact recipe.

Under the panel, outside its box, the proof footer. It names the recipe, the recipe ID and version 4 with a link to that version in Studio, when the file was made, and the rule version used. The link leads to version 4 in the recipe’s version history, marked Printed: the exact version the label was made from.
