Toolkit Licensing
User Guide > Licensing and Distributing > Toolkit Licensing

Accusoft requires customers who are developing code that uses Accusoft components to have a Toolkit license for each developer.

This section provides information about the following:

Assigned Development License

When licenses are purchased for developers at an organization, a representative is designated to assign the licenses to developers at the organization. Each developer must create an account on Accusoft’s website prior to the assignment of licenses. The organization’s designated representative may request that licenses be reassigned as a result of personnel changes. 

License Manager

The License Manager is a GUI application that is used by a developer to register and activate Evaluation and Toolkit licenses on their development system. The License Manager is in the Licensing folder of your install directory.

Please see Evaluation Licensing or Toolkit Licensing sections for detailed instructions on using the utility for registering and activating different types of licenses.

Running the License Manager

Run the License Manager using:

See Registration (below) for more information.

Activating the Toolkit License

Activation involves the developer choosing a Toolkit license, either Evaluation or paid, so that the license is active on the system.

Registration

Registration is the process of creating a paid Toolkit license key for a particular system. Registration for Toolkit licenses is always done through the License Manager. This enables the features for the purchased edition to operate without nag dialogs or watermarks.

Registration for each license is only required to be performed once per development system. After a license has been registered on a system, the developer can use the license without further interaction with the License Manager.

Also refer to How to Register a Toolkit License.

Developing Code

Once an Evaluation or paid Toolkit license has been activated on the development system, no additional code is required to use the Accusoft products on this system.

If moving the resulting executable code to a new system, you will need to install Toolkit licenses or incorporate Runtime licenses into your code.
