novaPDF has three major editions: Lite, Standard and Professional. novaPDF Professional has all the features enabled, while novaPDF Lite and Standard have limited functionality.
Server editions work on Terminal Servers and as shared network printers while the Desktop editions don't. The Desktop and Server editions have identical pricing structures, but you cannot purchase less than 3 licenses for Server editions.
