2018.1

Note
The Software Activation dialog can also be reached through a shortcut located in All
Programs, then Objectif Lune, then PlanetPress Connect and is named Software
Activation. Since it does not load the software, it is faster to access for the initial activation.
Requesting a license
After getting the Magic Number, a license request must be done for bothPlanetPress Connect
and Workflow 8:
l
Customersmust submit their Magic Number and serial number to Objectif Lune via the
Web Activations page: http://www.objectiflune.com/activations. The OL Customer Care
team will then send the PlanetPress Connect license file via email.
l
Resellerscan create an evaluation license via the Objectif Lune Partner Portal by
following the instructions there: http://extranet.objectiflune.com/
Note that if you do not have a serial number, one will be issued to you by the OL Activations
team.
Accepting the license will activate it, after which the PlanetPress Connect services will need to
be restarted. Note that in some case the service may not restart on its own. To resolve this
issue, restart the computer, or start the service manually from the computer's Control Panel.
Activating PlanetPress Workflow 8
PlanetPress Workflow 8 uses the same licensing scheme as PlanetPress Connect. There are
two ways of activating the license for Workflow 8 after saving it to a suitable location:
l If only PlanetPress Workflow 8 is installed, double-click on the license for the PlanetPress
Workflow 8 License Activation dialog to open. Applying the license here activates all of
the Workflow 8 components.
l
If you have both PlanetPress Workflow 8 and PlanetPress Connect installed, it will not be
possible to double-click on the license file as this will always open the PlanetPress
Connect Activations Tool. Instead, open PlanetPress Workflow 8 manually and apply the
license through the activations dialog within.
