Developer and Server Licenses

We offer three different licensing options for Universal Document Converter depending on your environment: 1. Regular licensing – limited number of users accessing your application. If you are developing small or medium automation systems and know how many users would use Universal Document Converter, you need a regular Business License corresponding to the number of users who would use your application. This license allows using Universal Document Converter from your application, installing Universal Document Converter on every user’s computer and letting them use it as stand-alone application or sharing it over the network. We provide significant discounts for developers or IT specialists, so this licensing option is the most flexible and convenient one. 2. Server license – unlimited access to your application which functions as a server-side system. This license lets you install Universal Document Converter on one server and access it locally from your application. This license doesn’t allow installing Universal Document Converter on end-users’ computers and doesn’t allow sharing Universal Document Converter over the network. The price of the server license is $999. 3. Developer license – unlimited number of users accessing your application with distribution.

Software Based on Universal Document Converter API

1. Folder Mill. Usually Folder Mill is installed on the office server and monitors the folders used by the company employees. Folder Mill can follow the rules specified for each incoming file: whether or not it should be converted to another format. Thanks to this, each employee needs to do only two things: copy the file that he/she needs to convert into his/her personal network folder and get the converted document from another folder. No conversion needs to be performed manually. 2. Print Conductor is a simple batch printing utility. If you regularly have to open and print a large number of files, this elegant tool can be a real timesaver. Once you tell it which files to print, Print Conductor automates the rest of the process. 3. 2Printer is the command line utility that can automate printing documents and image files. The command line interface enables the users to create batch-files for automating their specific printing needs. This tool may be included in your Windows Task Scheduler to automate printing process on your computer. 2Printer is compatible with any mechanical printers connected to a computer or accessed via the local networks, and also virtual printers like Universal Document Converter.
