Standalone license

In this scenario, you are installing your application that uses ABBYY FineReader Engine library on your computer by manually copying the files.

You will need:

  • a USB dongle containing the parameters of your hardware protection key.

Follow the instructions:

  1. Unpack the %archive_name%.sh with the --target and --noexec options. The example of command line:
%archive_name%.sh --noexec --target <where to unpack>
    
  1. Copy the following files:
    • Files for the functioning of the modules that your application will support.
    • Files marked as “mandatory” in ABBYY FineReader Engine Distribution Kit section in Developer's Help. They are system modules and main recognition databases.
    • Resource files for interface languages that will be used in your application.
    • Dictionary support files for recognition languages that your application will support. If the recognition languages include languages with the Latin alphabet, make sure that you copy the Univers.amd and Univers.amm files.
    • The License Manager utility (LicenseManager.Console, libProtectionConsoleUI.so).

Note: You can use the FREngineDistribution.csv file to automatically create a list of files required for your application to function.

  1. Create a folder for storing the licensing data (default is /var/lib/ABBYY/SDK/12/Licenses). Everyone should have full access permissions on it. To change this folder, see an example described in Working with the LicensingSettings.xml File article.
  2. Install the Licensing Service, as described in Installing the Licensing Service.

Important! Do not copy the libProtection.Developer.so on your workstation. It is a protection library used for the developer installation.

  1. Install the Wibu CodeMeter key drivers manually.
  2. Connect the hardware protection key to the USB port of the workstation. License activation is not required, but the dongle must be connected for the whole time you are using the library.

Now your application can use ABBYY FineReader Engine library while the key is connected, and you can view the license details in the License Manager Utility.
