The SDL Suite/LE (Light Edition) is a restricted version provided free of charge for private and educational purposes. Private usage means that you can use the SDL Suite for your private activities which must be non-commercial (this means that you do not earn any money or receive any other material benefits from the programs which use the SDL Suite). By educational usage we mean using the SDL Suite for educating yourself or others, again without earning money from your educational activities. Using the Light Edition in scientific programs is not an educational usage, even if you are using it only for your PhD thesis (a PhD thesis is neither private nor educational, it is research with clear material benefits, both for you and the institution you are working for). In such cases you are not allowed to use the Light Edition.
The following table lists all restrictions of the Light Edition. Click here for a comparison of features of the various versions of the SDL Suite.
