Activate MadeToPrint Server
How you do unlock MadeToPrint Server on Windows.
Unlocking MadeToPrint requires administrator priviledges. As we are running as a Plug-In in InDesign Server, the InDesign Server – and thus the command line – needs administrator priviledges as well. Even if the user is an Administrator user, the command line needs to be run with administrator priviledges.
Run InDesign Server as administrator
(1) Hit the Windows-"Start"-button
(2) search for "cmd"
(3) Right click on "cmd.exe"
(4) Left click on "Run as Administrator"
Allow user account control
Click on "Yes" to allow the execution of the command line as an administrator
Please verify that the title of the command line starts with "Administrator". All entries that you make here will now be run with administrator privileges.
Starting InDesign Server
Start the InDesign Server
(1) Change to the InDesign Server Directory
(2) Select the InDesignServer.com file and specify a SOAP port through which you want to communicate with InDesign Server. This can be any free port number. Confirm with "Enter".
In this tutorial we use the port number 18555
InDesign Server is running
The InDesign Server is started. Make sure that these two lines appear. The first line states that SOAP requests will be handled at the port used when starting the Server.
Open MadeToPrint Server UI
Open the MadeToPrint Server UI. You can do this the regular way from the Start menu or via the Windows Explorer.
Create a new connection.
To enable the UI to communicate with the MadeToPrint InDesign plug-in server, you must create a connection in the UI.

(2) Select "New Connection ..."
Enter connection data
Now select the data to the InDesign server to which you want to "communicate". Enter the port number that you used at the start of InDesign server. If the InDesign Server runs on the same computer as the UI, then the IP address is 127.0.0.1 (you can also use "localhost"). Save the settings by clicking on "Save".
Choose connection
Now select the newly created connection.
(1) Click on "Select Entry"
(2) Select the name of the connection.
Open "Register" dialog
By clicking on "Register ..." the activation dialog opens.
