How server licensing works

If you are not using Terminal Services, share the printer installed on your "print server". You have to add the network printer to the client computers. If you are using Terminal Services then you do not need to share and install on the client computers anything. All client computers which connect to the registered "print server" will automatically register themselves on first print (until you reach the allowed computers limit). Unregistered client computer will not be able to print to a registered server once the allowed user limit is reached.
Benefits of server licensing
  • Simplified Installation. You can install novaPDF on a Windows server, and any user can print to PDF (i.e. convert a file to PDF) either by adding the novaPDF shared printer or by installing novaPDF on their computers too.
  • Centralized Updates. When a new version of novaPDF is installed on the server, on the client computers novaPDF is automatically updated too. This way you only update it in one place and it automatically propagates throughout the network.
  • Public Profiles. You can set up a printing profile for novaPDF on the server and all the client computers will be able to use that profile. If you change the public profile on the server, it automatically changes propagates it throughout the network.
  • License management. novaPDF allows the management of license usage on the server where it is installed. You can simply add/rename/remove licensed workstations using the licensing management window.
Once you received your registration key please keep the email for future reference. If you have problems while registering or you have lost your registration key please contact us at support@novapdf.com Please specify (if possible) your order number, name and email used to buy online.

After purchasing novaPDF you will receive your registration key. To register your copy of the program, follow these instructions: Registering novaPDF
