Before You Install MapInfo Professional

Before installing MapInfo Professional, record your serial number and access code in an easy-to-remember
place. You need a valid serial number and access code to complete an installation or an upgrade. Also,
complete the postage-paid registration card and return it to Pitney Bowes Software Inc., or register online
by accessing the Contact Info option on the DVD Browser.

It is possible that the MapInfo PDF Printer driver may not install when:

• Your IT department has a policy to disallow printer installations. Contact your IT department to check

if there is such a policy in place. If there is, then have them temporarily allow printer installation on
your machine while you install MapInfo Professional.

• Your anti-malware or anti-spyware is turned on during the installation. Contact your IT department to

temporarily stop the anti-malware or anti-spyware on your machine while you install MapInfo
Professional.

If there are concerns about stopping anti-malware or anti-spyware, then try installing MapInfo
Professional first and if the MapInfo PDF Printer driver does not install, uninstall MapInfo
Professional, stop your anti-malware or anti-spyware, and then reinstall.
