Policy Standards
Licensing Category | Application containing Accusoft code is: | License Model | Technical Notes |
Desktop PC Install | Operated by a single person. | Desktop PC Install | ‘Multi-processor’ computers and ‘multi-core’ processors* (chips) are counted as a single CPU or seat for desktop PC installations, so a ‘dual-core’ processor* counts as one CPU or installation. |
Barcode Xpress Standard | Limited to 40 pages per minute processing speed; designed for moderate-volume applications. | Install | Licensing fee applies one time only. Optional annual support and maintenance programs are available. |
Server Install

Server Install (OEM/ISV) | For resale and operated by a process, such as a computer monitoring a folder for files to be processed. | Server Install | ‘Multi-processor’ computers and ‘multi-core’ processors* are counted as multiple CPUs (licensed runtimes). |
Service Provider | Outsource Facility | Part of a system or process that derives ongoing revenue. | Server Install (Annual) or Desktop PC Install (Annual) | Desktop PC Install licenses are based on the number of scanners/seats Accusoft Code is supporting.
