Accusoft products may have multiple editions, each of which supports different features. Products that support multiple editions are installed with multiple evaluation Toolkit licenses, one evaluation Toolkit license per edition.
Evaluation licenses allow developers to try features in different product editions. Since each license supports only a single edition of a product, the developer can switch between editions by activating the corresponding Toolkit license, either purchased or evaluation, using the License Manager.
When a customer downloads an evaluation Toolkit, the evaluation Toolkit license for the edition with the most features is installed by default. However, the developer may run the License Manager to change the Toolkit license to a lower edition in order to determine if that edition will serve their needs.
If a customer has purchased multiple editions of the same product, they may install both editions on a development system, but only one edition may be active at a time. Once a license has been activated for a particular system, it may be deactivated (replaced by activating another edition) or reactivated at any time. Similarly, customers who own a lower featured edition may activate a higher featured edition evaluation Toolkit license and then switch back to their paid, lower-featured Toolkit edition license at any time. For example, you can go from a paid MD edition to an evaluation Professional edition by activating the Professional edition evaluation Toolkit license.

The License Manager does not control installing MD features if Professional was installed originally. If you installed the Professional edition and require the missing MD components and samples, then you need to modify the installation in Add/Remove programs. |
