Free individual licences for students, teachers and lecturers
fxEditor Professional, free for education: a licence of your own for anyone with a school or university email address. There is no card to enter and nothing to pay.
A licence for you, not your institution
Each licence is for one person — the one it is made out to, with a licence key of their own. It is not a site licence: it does not cover your colleagues, your students, your department, or your school or university.
- Colleagues who want fxEditor each sign up here for a licence of their own, with their own address.
- To cover everyone at a school, university or department, the institution needs a licence of its own — see the paid licences, or talk to us about Enterprise.
- The equation editor to build into your course or class pages, and fxTeX Pro to render maths in the browser — as on the Professional licence, with a licence key that is yours alone.
- 1,000 service loads a month (about 33 a day), and fxTeX Server rendering in bursts of up to 1,000 equations, then 67 a second.
- For 6 months at a time, and renewable for as long as you have the address — sign up again in the last month to renew.
