This page is for users who wish to retrieve a license file for a previously activated installation of MAPublisher (6.0 or higher) or Geographic Imager. Please read this instructions completely before completing the form.

If you have not yet registered your Avenza software product, you must do so:

If you have already registered and activated, you can request that the license file be emailed to you by filling in the form below. The license file will be sent to the email address used for the original activation.

Carefully select the product and version from the dropdown & indicate whether or not you registered an evaluation license (checked for an evaluation license, unchecked for a full license).
This system will not issue license file for a product that you have not previously activated.
Please also make sure to select the correct product, version and operating system as otherwise you may not receive a license file that is compatible with your installation.

Finally, enter your Machine ID in the space indicated on the form. Below are instructions on how you can retrieve this ID. Licenses are uniquely bound to the machine which they were registered and will not work on any other machine.

If there are any problems, or you cannot receive email, contact Avenza Support at 1-416-487-6442 or activation@avenza.com.
