Step 3. Installing ABBYY FineReader 12 on
Workstations
Important! Before installing ABBYY FineReader 12 on the workstations, be sure to complete Steps 1 and 2
(see Step 1. Administrative installation , Step 2. Managing Licenses ).
A workstation obtains a per–seat license and is bound to the server only when ABBYY FineReader 12 is
installed on it in accordance with the configuration of the licenses at the time of the installation.
Note:
– You cannot install different editions of ABBYY FineReader on the same workstation.
– If a workstation was cloned from another machine, you must change the value of the Security Identifier
(SID) before installing ABBYY FineReader to avoid malfunctions of the licensing mechanism.
– ABBYY FineReader requires Microsoft Core XML Services (MSXML) 6.0 to be installed on the workstation.
