Requesting the License:
After you have retrieved your Magic Number, you then need to do one of the following to request a
license for both PlanetPress® Connect and Workflow 8:
If you are a Customer, you must submit your Magic Number and PlanetPress® serial number*
to Objectif Lune via the Web Activations page: http://www.objectiflune.com/activations. The
OL Customer Care team will then email the PlanetPress® Connect license file to you.
If you are a Reseller, you can create an evaluation license via the the Objectif Lune Partner
Portal by following the instructions there: http://extranet.objectiflune.com/
* Note that if you do not have a PlanetPress serial number, one will be issued to you by the OL
Activations team.
The License File:
The license file returned to you will contain activations for all of the required
components e.g., the Designer, Server, PlanetPress® Workflow 8, etc. The filename of
the PlanetPress® Connect license is License.OLConnectLicense.
In Version 1.0 two different processes are involved for activating the license. One process is required
for activating PlanetPress® Connect and another process is required for activating PlanetPress®
Workflow 8. However both applications use exactly the same license file (the activation process will
be combined in a later release).
Activating PlanetPress® Workflow 8:
PlanetPress® Workflow 8 uses the same licensing scheme as PlanetPress® Connect. There are 2 ways
of activating the license for Workflow 8 after you have saved it to a suitable location:
If you only have PlanetPress® Workflow 8 installed you can double-click on the license for the
PlanetPress® Workflow 8 License Activation dialog to open. Applying the license here allows
you to activate all of the required Workflow 8 components.
If you have both PlanetPress® Workflow 8 and PlanetPress® Connect installed, it will not be
possible to double-click on the license file as this will always open the PlanetPress® Connect
Activations Tool. Instead you must open PlanetPress® Workflow 8 manually and apply the
license through its activations dialog.
