What is Print2eDoc Application?
===============================
Gnostice Print2eDoc Application is a software printer based electronic document
creation tool that enables any Windows application, that can already print to an
installed printer, to generate PDF, TIFF, PNG, JPEG and several other formats of
the same printable content. If you need to generate an electronic version of a
printable document, you simply need to choose the Print function on the
application, select Gnostice Print2eDoc as the device to print to, in the Print
setup dialog, and fire the print. Print2eDoc would then take over to generate
the desired output. Print2eDoc also includes special facilities and options for
generating electronic documents from Microsoft Office applications, with support
for exporting table of contents, bookmarks, comments, spreadsheet layout,
presentation outlines and several other elements of the Office document.

What is Print2eDoc SDK?
=======================
Gnostice Print2eDoc SDK is a programming interface that enables developers to
programmatically control Gnostice Print2eDoc Application to perform all the
tasks related to creation of electronic documents through it. Print2eDoc SDK
provides options to make Print2eDoc Application run in silent mode, set and
manage Document Creation Profiles, control the Microsoft Office Add-ins and to
do virtually all of what can be achieved through the graphical end-user
interface.
The SDK includes a Deployment Kit, for painless and silent deployment of the
necessary files to the target system, and a Profiles Configuration utility, for
customization of deployments.

Can you clarify your licensing - you mention that the sdk is royalty
free and can be distributed without further 'per seat' costs - yet
hidden in the small print of the license documentt
it states that the sdk cannot be used to distribute 'General Purpose'
applications, including document management systems. So, exactly what
kind of application can it be used
for? Are you guys trying to pull the wool over our eyes because the
uncertainty of your licensing terms really sucks especially when you
make a big hala-balo about the 'royalty
free' part of the sdk. Please clarify, because I was about to part
with my cash until I read the license terms.

[Girish Patil (Gnostice)]

Sorry, I'm late in checking in on this news forum.

Hope you are still interested.

I've copied here the relevant BOLD text from the license agreement:

<<<
general purpose software product(s) or an integrated work(s) or product suite(s)
whose sole purpose is to create, produce, convert or transform documents from
any format to PDF, HTML, RTF, Excel, Text or other formats supported by the
SOFTWARE PRODUCT. This also disallows the use of the SOFTWARE PRODUCT in general
purpose reporting software, business intelligence software, document management
software, web services, virtual printer driver software and PDF
viewing/printing/converting software. To use the SOFTWARE PRODUCT in general
purpose software product(s) you require an OEM or GPAD (General Purpose
Application Development) License.
Isn't the term 'general purpose' explained in this. The key: 'whose sole
purpose...". Any other types of applications will not be affected.

I think it is fair to say that an software product that deals with only
create/conversion of the supported formats would have a substantial part of its
work done using the Gnostice product, for which, we offer a one-time OEM/GPAD
license.

Please do email us for any clarifications.
