Licensing Tailor
After Tailor has been installed on your computer as described above, it will run in demo mode. In this mode Tailor is fully functional except for the export functions.
If you purchased Tailor, you will have received a license string. To register your license string and enable Tailor, perform the following steps :
• Launch Tailor. Since Tailor is in demo mode, it brings up the Preferences Panel showing the Licensing panel.
• Type your name and (optionally) the name of your organisation.
• Enter your license string, in the form LLLLLLL-LLLLLLL, where L stands for a letter. There are two sets of 7 characters, separated by a hyphen. You can mix upper and lower case while entering the string. You don't have to enter the serial number (a 5 digit number); it is encoded in the license string.
• Press the Accept&Register button. Note that, by registering your license string, you accept the terms of the License Agreement. See "Reference Manual, License Agreement" in the on-line or printed documentation.
If you correctly entered the license string, Tailor will change the appearance of the Licensing Panel to reflect the type of license you have purchased and your serial number.
Please do not loose the License String you purchased !
