First, we would like to draw to your attention that Registration and Activation have undergone some changes, and you can now accomplish both through the Activation Wizard.

Second, some DBT templates have been renamed. We recognize that the term "UEB" is better understood than "English (Unified)." Users of prior versions may find that your default template is no longer the default setting after installation of an upgrade. Please check, and if necessary, reset your default template.
