Author-it's locally-stored client files are:

  • Author-it executable.
  • Help files.
  • Language dictionaries.
  • HTML TOC Images
  • Windows Help Compiler files.
  • HTML Help Compiler files.

You can install Author-it on any number of computers. The license defines how many users have access to Author-it at any one time.
