Shorthand Version 10 
Licensing and Registration

 Try Out Shorthand Risk-Free for 30 Days
Shorthand comes with a free 30 day trial license so you can download Shorthand (a fully functional version) and use it for 30 days. Since you get to use Shorthand on your computer, you get to see if Shorthand works as advertised before deciding on purchasing it.

Please note that Shorthand is not free software: If you decide you want to keep Shorthand you must register and purchase a permanent License as described below.

Please read the Warranty and License Agreement carefully before purchasing a license. In particular, note that purchasing a license indicates that you have thoroughly evaluated and tested Shorthand and found it acceptable for your purposes. Since each license is personalized with your name, we do not accept returns or issue refunds for licenses!
 
 What You Get
If you purchase a Shorthand License, you will receive a unique Registration ID which converts your copy of Shorthand into a Licensed Copy and allows you to use Shorthand beyond the 30 day trial period. Unless indicated otherwise, documentation is provided through Shorthand's help file and the Shorthand How-to Guide PDF file; there is no printed documentation and CD's are sold separately.  

We offer two types of Licenses:
TIME-LIMITED and NON-EXPIRING Licenses

Time-limited licenses allow you to use the Shorthand software for a specified amount of time. Time-limited licenses include FREE UPGRADES to future versions of Shorthand while your license is active.

Non-expiring licenses allow you to use a specific version of Shorthand as long as you wish (e.g. a non-expiring Sh10 license allows you to use the Shorthand Version 10 with no end date; please note that a Sh10 license will not work with other versions of Shorthand). Unlike the Time-limited Licenses, non-expiring licenses DO NOT include free upgrades to future versions of Shorthand.

NOTE: Non-expiring licenses are keyed to your local hard drive so cannot be installed on Virtual Machines (VDIs), removable drives (e.g. USB flash drives, jump drives, thumb drives) or on a network server. You should get a Time-Limited license (e.g. a 30 day or 1 year license) if you plan to use Shorthand on virtual machines, VDIs, removable drives or on a network server.
