Runtime Licensing; Duplication and Distribution License:

Depending on which LEADTOOLS SDK or Add On Module/Plug In you have licensed, the license terms may require runtime licensing based on the number of copies of your application that you deploy (i.e., distribute or install and use internally). For a list of SDKs and Module/Plug Ins requiring runtime licenses see About LEADTOOLS Runtime Licenses.

By paying the initial box price for the LEADTOOLS product you licensed, you have obtained a development license, which entitles you to develop your application and test it. Once completed, if you wish to distribute the application or deploy it internally on multiple machines, you are required to enter into a duplication and distribution agreement with LEAD. You have the ability to choose from several licensing options depending on your volume needs and deployment method.

The software you are installing is a fully functional working version and includes support for all features in entire LEADTOOLS product line. Therefore, you will have programmatic access to all functions of LEAD’s various SDKs and Modules/Plug Ins. Until you sign and return the correct runtime licensing agreement, your application will display a "nag" message. Once LEAD receives the executed contract, we will provide you a password that will permit you to terminate the "nag" message for the product that you have licensed. In addition to providing the password, you must also use the no nag version of the Leadtools.dll, found in the Redist\NoNag directory. This is also the version you must redistribute.
