The PDF Report Distribution Service is a separate module that needs its own licencing.

Hello Anil,

PDF Distributor is an additional licensed module on top of the Publisher license. You will need to have both licensed to be able to use the full functionality of PDF Distributor.

Please mark as complete and helpful if this answer helps.

Thanks,

What is the exact difference between Publisher and PDF Distribution licenses ?

[mjm]

Publisher is the license to be able to "publish" and better manage the distribution of QlikView documents and files to other users, and file servers etc.

PDF Distributor offers the ability to be able to generate and distribute static PDF reports from QlikView applications.

What's the Difference between the QlikView Publisher and the PDF Report Distribution Service?

Can I understand like this is only for generating the PDFs and distribute it in an organization ?

[mjm]

This is for the distribution of PDF reports within your company
