Note: Managed installations of Foxit can be managed on-demand and remotely through the enterprise tools you are currently using, similar to most other applications being used.
1. Launch Foxit PDF Pro and click the “Activate” button next to "Buy Now"
2. On the next window, there will be an option to put in a Perpetual License. Further down, there is a note that says "If this Editor is managed by Admin Console, please click 'Sign In' to process." Click the 'Sign In' button.
3. You will then be prompted to log in. Select "SSO Login" located under the main login button.
4. Enter your UMass Amherst NetID email (example: NetID@umass.edu) in the email field.
5. You may go through the normal Single Sign On process. After that you will be prompted to restart to switch to the target server. Click "Ok."
6. Foxit will check if it is the default PDF editor, and offer to make it the default if not. Click "Yes" if you would like Foxit to be your default PDF editor and viewer. Click "No" otherwise. If you click "No" uncheck the box asking to always perform this step when starting Foxit PDF Editor.
7. Open up Foxit and go to File, then Preferences at the bottom of the menu. Once the Preferences window opens, scroll to the bottom and select Updater. Make sure to select "Automatically install updates" to ensure your software automatically updates as new versions are released.
8. You can now start using Foxit.
