### About paying.

#### What does a seat cover?

One person, on one computer at a time. Sign in on another computer and the seat moves with you; the first one saves and steps aside.

#### Is the free reader really free?

Yes. Anyone can download ScaleSet PDF and open, read, search and print any PDF, with no account and no time limit. Free copies get every update.

#### What happens when the trial ends?

The markup, takeoff and editing tools go back to read-only until your team has a licence. Your drawings and their markups are untouched: markups live inside the PDF and any reader shows them.

#### Can we mix licensed and free people?

Yes. Licensed people mark up; everyone else can open the same set free and see every markup.

#### How do we pay?

Seats are billed yearly. [Talk to ScaleSet](https://scaleset.com.au/contact).
