TIP Many newer graphic cards offer tabbed pages where you can learn more
precise information about your specific graphic card. If specific tab pages are
present, refer to them instead of the Adapter tab.
What is the text editor used for?
The text editor you designate during installation is used for editing text files
such as PGP and CUS dictionary files while you are running your product.
What is the difference between a stand-alone license and a
network license?
Stand-alone licensed products are registered and activated to an individual
workstation. While the software can be installed on multiple systems in your
facility, the license only allows one system to be operational. If you need to
run more systems, you need to purchase more stand-alone licensed products,
or consider converting to network licenses.
Network licensed products rely on the Network License Manager to keep track
of software licenses. The software can be installed and run on multiple systems,
up to the maximum number of licenses you’ve purchased. The Network License
Manager “checks out” licenses until they are all in use. No further systems
can run the program until a license is “checked in.” If you need to run more
systems, you can purchase additional licenses for the Network License Manager
to maintain.
