Copy & Paste)"},"content":{"rendered":"\n

Dear buyer, you have chosen a product from Engelmann Software GmbH and we thank you very much for your purchase. For all of you who bought software from us or via the Internet for the first time, here is a step by step guide on how to download, install and activate Engelmann software, and enter the serial number using copy & paste<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1. Check Your E-mail<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"enter<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

You have given us your e-mail address as part of the payment process on our website. After completing the payment, you will receive an e-mail from us with all the relevant information. You will recognize the e-mail by its subject, which contains the order reference number and the name of the purchased software. You will also see us as the sender.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"order<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Note: Why Cleverbridge?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Strictly speaking, you will not receive the email from us but from Cleverbridge, which will send the email on our behalf. The reason: because it is too costly for small companies to set up their own delivery and payment system, we – as well as most other software sellers – use an external service provider for the processing. Our service provider is called Cleverbridge, an e-commerce specialist that has been providing services for software companies for many years. That’s why there is a note on the invoice that your credit card will be charged by Cleverbridge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. The E-mail Contains Three Important Pieces of Information<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The picture below shows a sample e-mail, which customers receive after ordering Photomizer 3 Premium<\/a>. The email looks the same when you order any other software title we offer, including MovieJack<\/a>. In this e-mail you will find three important pieces of information:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

  1. The invoice, which you can download as PDF or view by clicking on the link “Invoice” in your browser. We have marked the relevant places where you can access the invoice in blue.<\/li>
  2. A link to download the purchased software directly to your PC. Since the link within the e-mail is usually displayed somewhat inconspicuously with “here”, we have highlighted it with green.<\/li>
  3. The license key is the most important thing and, strictly speaking, what you have paid for. This is because you can only unlock and use the purchased software with the help of this unique and individual number. In the example image below, we have circled the license key in red.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    Note:<\/strong> downloading the software is only necessary if you have not already downloaded the program and initiated the purchase from within the software. Some programs offer restricted or time-limited trial versions of the software that only become full versions when you enter your license key. But in that case, you already have the software and don’t need to download it again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    3. Download the Software<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    By clicking on the “here\u201d link in the e-mail, another window will open and the download of the software will start automatically. This process may vary slightly depending on your browser and browser version. In any case, at the end of the download, you will find a file labeled xxx_Setup.exe<\/strong> in your download folder (or the folder you chose to save the downloaded file).<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

    4. Install and Activate Engelmann Software<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    Most people are familiar with the process of installing and activating your software. If not, here is a short tutorial with screenshots using Photomizer 3<\/a> as an example.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
