Installing Real PDF software
Do I need to uninstall a previous version of Real PDF
before I install a newer version?
No. There is no need to uninstall the previous version before
installing a newer version of the program.
Do I need to uninstall the trial version of Real PDF
software before I install the full version?
No. The full version of Real PDF software can be installed “over”
the trial version. This means that the trial version’s files will be
replaced by the full version’s files.

computer?

more than one person will be using Real PDF software on different
computers at the same time, you must purchase a multiple-user
license.
