    One question...Does the requirement for auto numbering mode enabled for uplaod to Windchill carry over to version 6 as well? I didn't find anything on that in the what's new.

    Is it a known issue that the 64-bit version of Arbortext 6 does not work?


    I opened a ticket with support regarding this:https://www.ptc.com/appserver/cs/view/case.jsp?n=10241501


    The "solution" of using the 32-bit version makes no sense to me. Why does a 64-bit version exist in the first place?

    The PTC site says:

    Case Details

    Error: Case 10241501 is not customer viewable.

    Hmmm...

    Hi Garen


    I was able to do a quick review of your case, it looks like the issue is with licensing, I will have a licensing TS team member contact you.


    I can assure this thread the 64bit version of Editor, Styler and PE are all running as 64bit applications on my Windows 7 laptop.


    I am sorry you are facing these challenges.


    Thanks,


    Susan Fort

    Susan,



    Is there an additional license requirement (cost) for the 64bit version
    of editor or PE etc?



    Thanks,

    I also have 64bit Editor, Styler and Architect working on my Windows 7 laptop. I did have a problem in that I downloaded the wrong version of the Flex license server (we have floating licenses). The Flex download page is ambiguous; you needFLEXnet Publisher 10.8.6 from ptc.com

    I'm curious to know what happens with the licenses if you have a mixed population of 32- and 64-bit client PCs? Also, we have two projects - one that still uses Epic Editor 4.3.1 and one that uses Arbortext Editor 5.2. We can serve the same concurrent licenses for both. What happens if we upgrade from 5.2 to 6.0 but still keep the Epic Editor 4.3.1 PCs?

    Hi Brian,


    No, no additional cost. The media that can be requested will have separate installers for the 32 bit version and the 64 bit version. When you go to PTC.com to download the software, users are given the opportunity to select theWin32 Downloador theWin64Download.There is no licensing difference either. The FlexNet license is the same for the product release whether the product is installed as 32 bit or as 64 bit.


    Please let me know if you have further questions.


    Thanks


    Susan
