Introduction
Applications which use the ABBYY FineReader Engine 9.0 library can work locally on a workstation. For correct
operation of applications, you need to activate a Standalone Runtime License. The ABBYY FineReader Engine
distribution kit includes the Local License Manager utility which may be used for activation the license.
Distribution of applications which use the ABBYY FineReader Engine 9.0 library includes two steps:
1. Installing the application and the ABBYY FineReader Engine library on the local disk of a workstation;
2. Activation of a Standalone Runtime License on the workstation.
