Is the Scan Pages feature a free feature or a licensed feature?

Post by rakunavi »

Hello all,

On the product information page, "Create a PDF from Scanned Content" is listed as a free feature, and the shopping cart icon is not shown in the application menu.

However, as shown in the video below, it seems to be a Licenced feature as far as I can see it actually works.

Also, "Scan Pages and Create a New File/Add Scanned Pages to an Existing File" is treated as a Licenced feature in the "PDF-XChange Product Comparison Chart".

It seems to me that it would be better if the handling of feature were consistent.

Hoping that the above information will be of some help to you.
Thank you so much for your continued support.

Best regards,
rakunavi

Hello, rakunavi

I had to double check with the higher-ups on that one before I could answer. As far as my memory said, it should always have been a paid feature (just like the nearly identical "new doc from images" and "combine docs" features are), and I do not know why it was mislabeled. That has been confirmed as the case, and this is a paid feature requiring at minimum an "Editor" license for use.

The product page has been fixed, and the "shopping cart" icon should be addressed in the next update.

Kind regards,
