Hello,
I am about to purchase PDF XChange viewer, but need to use it on my desktop at work, desktop at home and laptop. I never will be using it on more than one computer at a time. Does my license allow me to install on multiple computers.

Re: using on multiple computers
Hi davidnovo,
while we do allow multiple installs like this we prefer that you limit it to 2 machines, typically one at home and one in the office please.
Being the only user of the software on all machines is key here. It's not about concurrent use since we license per user so it's the number of users in total that have acces to the software that must be counted.

Hi Paul,
I assure you I am going to be the only user. I just have desktops at home and the office, and only use the laptop for travel.

Re: using on multiple computers
Hi again davidnovo
The license allows 1 Desktop + 1 Laptop - in strict terms ...
However - we are not police and the software has no 'call home' mechanism.
If you are asking what is the official policy then I am afraid that has been stated - if you are asking what will happen should you use as intended then please draw your own conlcusions ...
We dont want to promote the abuse of licenses - but - If you dont ask us or tell us - we wont know - will we ?

I would not want to take advantage of a fellow Canadian. I would not be able to sleep at night.
