About ABBYY FineReader Engine 12 Activation
ABBYY FineReader Engine 12 activation depends on the type of license.
Activation takes very little time and is carried out with the help of the activation script activateFREngine.command. This script can be found in the root folder of the ABBYY FineReader Engine distribution package. It is used for sending the necessary activation information to ABBYY. The same wizard is used for loading the ABBYY License File (*.ABBYY.License file) which you receive from ABBYY during activation.
Note: After launching activateFREngine.command script you need to activate your developer serial number.
Activation information is sent as a code (Installation ID) which is generated on the basis of information about the computer on which the program is being installed. No personal information about the user or computer is used for generating this code and this code cannot be used for identifying the user.
Activation methods:
- Via the Internet
Activation is carried out automatically and takes only a few seconds. An Internet connection is required for this type of activation.
- By e-mail
The user needs to send an e-mail message generated by the program and containing information required for activation to product-activation-robot@abbyy.com. To ensure a quick reply from the mail robot, do not alter the information in the message body or Subject field.
Once the activation is complete, the program can be used.
