What is the difference
between HotDocs Standard Edition and HotDocs® Player?
HotDocs Standard Edition is the application that allows you
to create an automated form from a text-based word processor
document. HotDocs Player only allows you to assemble or complete
a form that has been automated with a full version of HotDocs
(Standard or Professional).

Do I need any software on my
hard drive before I can use the interactive forms?
To use the graphical
or text-based interactive forms, you need to have the correct
version of HotDocs® Player software on your computer.
If you do not have HotDocs® Standard or HotDocs®
Professional, you can download HotDocs® Player for free.
If you already have HotDocs Standard or HotDocs
Professional with HotDocs® PDF Advantage installed (to
order PDF Advantage, please call 1-800-500-3627), you
can use forms from this site without additional software.
To use the HotDocs® On-line Forms, you
do not need any additional software installed."

Can I use HotDocs
Player 6 to run a HotDocs Player 5 template?

either HotDocs Player 5 or HotDocs Player 6. They must be converted
to HotDocs Player 6 before they can be used in HotDocs Player
6.

I get a message
saying that I need to have HotDocs Player 6 in order to run
a form. Can I use HotDocs Player 5?
No. HotDocs Player 6 templates and
forms have a different format than HotDocs Player 5 templates
and forms. HotDocs Player 5 is required to assemble HotDocs
Player 5 forms, and HotDocs Player 6 is required to assemble
HotDocs Player 6 forms.

Once I install
HotDocs Player 6, can I uninstall HotDocs Player 5?
It depends on whether you want to use
HotDocs Player 5 forms. If you subscribe to a set of forms that
require HotDocs Player 5, you will still need that software.
If you have a subscription with only HotDocs Player 6
products, you will not need HotDocs Player 5 and you can uninstall
it.

I want to use the
same answer file folder for both HotDocs Player 5 and HotDocs
Player 6. How do I do this?
There are two ways to do this. If you
already have HotDocs Player 5 installed on your computer when
you install HotDocs Player 6, you will be prompted during the
install whether you want to use the same answer file folder
or not. If you do not select the same folder during the install,
you can manually set your answer file folder by going to Tools>Options>File
Locations in HotDocs Player 6. Set the "Answer Files" folder
to the proper location.

Can I preview forms while using HotDocs Player 6, even if I
haven't completed the entire form yet?
Yes. Click on the "Preview" tab anytime
during the assembly to see how the form is filled to that point.
You can then return to the question dialogs by clicking on the
"Interview" tab.
