How to register your SDLX™
Translation Suite
Flexible Software licence
About the flexible software licence
The SDLX Flexible Software Licence is a unique 12 character code which is installed on the
PC where you want to use SDLX. You must purchase a licence and then register the licence
before you can use the SDLX application.
You can register the licence via the internet or by email. Email registration is generally used
where you are working for a company that has a firewall that prevents you from using the
internet for this purpose.
If at any time you need to use SDLX on another machine you can de-register the licence and
then register it again on the other machine. You can register and de-register the licence as
often as you wish on any PC. This is because the licence is personal to you, not the
computer.
Dongle SDLX version
If you cannot register via the internet or via email you will have to purchase a dongle version
of SDLX.
IMPORTANT
NOTE
Always de-register your copy of any SDL Desktop Product before you
reinstall Windows or uninstall an SDL Desktop Product or change your
hard disk.

How to register SDLX via email
Registration via email is a two part process:
Part 1
Part 2
You send SDL an email containing your licence number and a registration
request (RRQ) file to [email protected]. The RRQ file contains details
of the PC where you are registering the licence. On receiving the email the
customer services team updates the SDLX licence database with your
licence and PC details. They will then send you a Registration Key (RKY)
file.
You import the registration key (RKY) file to your PC. This registers your
software.
Part 1

2. Select Tools, Registration from the menu bar. The Registration dialog box is
displayed.
Select this option

5. Click Yes. You will now be asked if you want to send the file to SDL Product Sales.
6. Click Yes. An e-mail is now generated. The email contains the name and location of
the RRQ file. For example C:\PROGRAM FILES\SDLX\robertg.rrq
7. Attach this file to the email.
8. Add your licence number to the email and then send the mail to SDL Product Sales.
Part 2
When you receive the email containing the RKY file it will also contain these instructions.
They tell you how to use the RKY file to register your software.

request (DRQ file).

displayed.

5. Click Yes. An e-mail is now generated. It contains the name and location of the
DRQ file. For example: C:\ PROGRAM FILES\SDLX\robertg.drq
