PlanetPress Capture License Management

The PlanetPress Capture License Management window is used to manage the pen pack available in the installation of PlanetPress Capture. Each Pen Pack contains a limited number of pens that can be registered in the Capture Database. When the number of pens have been reached, new pens can no longer be registered.

If no pen pack is available, PlanetPress Capture functions in Demo Mode. In Demo mode, only one (1) pen can be registered in the pen management window. Also, the Capture Fields Generator will be unable to produce more than 8 documents with a pattern instead of the full 20,000 patterns.

To add a pen pack, PlanetPress must be activated using a PlanetPress Production license. if PlanetPress Production is in trial mode, no pen pack can be added because the Pen Pack uses the serial number.
