PlanetPress Capture License Management
The PlanetPress Capture License Management window is used to manage the pen pack available in the installation of Plan-
etPress 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 Workflow must be activated using a PlanetPress Production licence. if PlanetPress Pro-
duction is in trial mode, no pen pack can be added because the Pen Pack uses the serial number.
This window has the following options and controls:
