Send an email to licensing@ezescan.com, telling us:
- who you are (your name, phone number, company name, company address)
- where you obtained your evaluation copy of EzeScan from
- what you are planning to use EzeScan to do.
We will evaluate your request and email you a time-limited EzeScan PRO evaluation license, based on the information you gave us. The evaluation software will stop working after a set number of days, and you agree to stop using the software after the expiry date.

i) simply detach it from your email into a folder on your PC.
i) start EzeScan.
II) from the admin menu choose the Licensing menu option:
iv) use the licensing form 'Import Button' to load the PRO evaluation license file from your PC folder.
v) Once the license is loaded, Close the EzeScan Licensing Information form.

Congratulations - the EzeScan software should now be installed and licensed with a time bombed evaluation EzeScan PRO licence.
