Do you offer a pricing for students?
Yes. See our Academic Pricing for students and teachers.
Do you have special pricing for charities?
Charities may be entitled to a free license or to sharply discounted prices. The same applies to churches and other religious organisations.
If you belong to a charity or religious organisation in a position of responsibility, please email eligibility documents to edu@hdrsoft.com.
Do I need to buy a second license if I install Photomatix on another computer?
One Photomatix Pro license entitles you to install and register Photomatix Pro on other computers you use. The same applies to the HDR Batch plugin for Lightroom, the Tone Mapping Plugin for Photoshop, Photomatix Bundle, Photomatix Essentials and Photomatix for Linux.
Note, however, that your Photomatix license is limited to one user. You will need to buy an additional license if you wish to install and register the software for another user (unless the other user is your spouse or close family member, as we make an exception in such cases).
A license may be transferred to another user, provided the original user renounces the use of the software and unregisters it from their computer(s).
Can I switch my Windows license to Mac? (or vice-versa)?
Yes. In fact, you do not need to switch your license, as one Photomatix Pro license allows you to install the software on another computer, regardless of its platform. The same applies to the HDR Batch Plugin for Lightroom, Photomatix Bundle and Photomatix Essentials.
When you order a license, you will see two separate options depending on whether the license is for the Windows or Mac version of the software. This information helps us better support you, but doesn't restrict your rights to register Photomatix on both Windows and Mac computers.
Is my Photomatix Pro license valid for Photomatix for Linux?
Photomatix Pro is available for both Windows and Mac, but not for Linux at the moment.
Photomatix for Linux is a product separate from Photomatix Pro, and therefore requires a different license.
However, we are making an exception for customers who purchased a Photomatix Pro license for Windows or Mac and wish to use Photomatix on a Linux OS as well. If that's your case, please contact our support to request a free Photomatix for Linux license.
What is your upgrade policy?
A Photomatix Pro 7 license purchased from the HDRsoft.com website allows you to upgrade for free to all sub-versions of Photomatix Pro 7. It also allows you to upgrade to Photomatix Pro 8 for free when version 8 is released.
Similarly, a license for the HDR Batch Plugin for Lightroom, the Tone Mapping Plugin for Photoshop and Photomatix for Linux allows you to upgrade for free to its next major version, in addition to its sub-versions.
A license for Photomatix Essentials allows you to upgrade for free to all its future versions.
How long does your free trial last?
The trial doesn't expire. You can try Photomatix for as long as you want, but Photomatix adds a watermark to the created image when you use it in trial mode.
If you purchase a license, you will receive a license key that registers the software and disables the watermark.
I have more questions, how can I get in touch with your support team?
