Obtaining Licenses
You will need to obtain a new license for the Arbortext Publishing Engine 7.1 release. You must update your license each time you upgrade to a major Arbortext Publishing Engine F000 release (maintenance releases or datecode updates do not require a license update). For example, a license issued for 7.1 would work with Arbortext Publishing Engine 7.1 M010. A license issued for 7.0 would not be compatible with 7.1, 7.2 and so on.
What You Will Need
When you obtain your license, you will need your PTC support site login information and customer number for the PTC support site. You will also need the Host ID of the computer, explained in Requesting Licenses.
You can submit a request for help on the PTC Customer Support at support.ptc.com, by choosing Create a New Support Case. You can also contact PTC License management support by telephone.
