Runtime Licensing

When an application that uses one or more Accusoft products is deployed, it requires a Runtime License for each installation. There are two main types of Runtime Licenses:

Automatically Reported. Distribution of Automatically Reported Runtime licenses is handled automatically through the use of licensing software components and web services.
Manually Reported. Manually Reported Runtime licensing requires you to provide the number of licenses distributed on a contractually agreed upon basis.
ActiveX Website Runtime Licensing. Using an Accusoft ActiveX on a webpage is similar to Manually Reported Runtime (Non-Node-Locked), as it requires calls to SetSolutionName, SetSolutionKey, and SetOEMLicenseKey. However, the web licenses are not node-locked to particular hardware but are node-locked to a set of specific domains or sub-domains.

These licensing types are each described in detail in the following sections:

If you are upgrading from an earlier version of PrintPRO, please see the Upgrading Runtime Licensing section for important information.
