UnForm 11.0 Downloads

Install this into a different directory than any previous UnForm release, such as 10.1. It can be (and generally should be) installed on top of any existing 11.0.xx release. Be sure if your license indicates a maximum 11.0.xx version that you do not install a version later than that.

Ports: The UnForm server runs on Windows 2016+ and 10+, and most modern Linux systems (Intel/AMD 64-bit processors). The UnForm 11.0 client runs on Windows and virtually any Linux or UNIX system. On newer Linux systems, an executable uf110c program is provided. On older systems, the Perl client can be run. Both are included in the standalone client installer.

Windows Installation Note

When installing on a Windows server without Terminal Services, right-click the setup executable and select Run As Administrator.

When installing on a Windows server with Terminal Services, use Control Panel, Install Application on Terminal Server or Install Application on Remote Desktop Services.

Some sites have experienced permission issues due to a 'Creator Owner' user with limited rights inherited from the root drive. Since this is inherited, its permissions can't be changed at the install folder level, but it can be removed from that folder by an administrator to work around the issue. Alternatively, grant Everyone full permission to the server's "temp" folder and subfolders below that.

Linux Installation Note
UnForm supports OpenSSL 1.0, 1.1, and 3.x versions. It will run on most Linux systems that support one of these versions. To determine compatibility, simply install a demo copy and try it out.

Compatibility With Prior Versions
UnForm 11.0 can co-exist on a system with prior versions. By default, UnForm 11.0 uses TCP/IP ports 27500 and 27502. Previous releases used different ports.

If you use Direct TCP/IP printing ports, there could be a conflict. Only one process can listen on any given port, so only one server can listen on a given port. Configure different ports for UnForm 11.0, and client configured printers would have to be updated to take the new ports into account.

Any application interfaces that use a prior client or executable, such as uf101c, would have to be modified to use the new UnForm 11.0 client, uf110c or the compiled uf110cc.

Clients and design tools from previous versions are not compatible with a Version 11.0 server, and vice versa. One exception is the Legacy Image Manager for version 10.0 will work with UnForm 11.0.

Avoid license problems when updating existing installations
Stop the server, then do an in-place upgrade on top of your current install. This will retain your current license information. If you install to a new location, or un-install the existing installation, you will lose the license and will require a reset of your serial number system ID. Note this instruction only refers to updates within a given release level (i.e. 11.0.xx to 11.0.yy).

Server IP addresses
By default, the UnForm server allows clients to connect from the standard private IP address spaces of 10.*.*.* and 192.*.*.*. If your network uses a different address space, modify the allow= line in the uf110d.ini file to accept connections from your address space and then restart the UnForm server.

Optional Dependencies
Some features of UnForm require either Ghostscript or Image Magick, or both. These open source tools are readily available for Windows, and via package managers on Linux (i.e. dnf on Redhat). The ufsetup.sh script will attempt to install these packages.

Linux:
As the root user:

1. Choose/Create a directory to store the UnForm server software.
2. Place the download file in the directory.
3. Uncompress the file: gunzip filename (on most Linux systems, this step is optional)
4. Unextract the file: tar xvf filename
5. Read the readme.txt file for current information.
6. Execute ./ufsetup.sh.
7. If no license has been previously applied, the system will be activated in evaluation mode automatically. It is also possible to force evaluation mode activation using ./license.sh.
8. Start the server by running uf110d start
9. Test the installation by running uf110c -v.
10. If you wish to change the default configuration, such as to set a default rule file, edit the uf110d.ini file.

Client Installation Instructions
UnForm client software is included in the server downloads, but can also be installed on other machines on your network. There are two clients: one for Linux or UNIX, and one for Windows.

Linux/UNIX:
As the root user:

1. Choose/Create a directory to store the UnForm client software.
2. Place the download file in the directory.
3. Uncompress the file: uncompress filename.Z or gunzip filename (it must end in upper-case .Z - rename if necessary)
4. Unextract the file: tar xvf filename (uncompress removes the .Z extension)
5. In the install directory, execute ./ufcsetup.sh.
6. Edit the uf110c.ini file to set the appropriate server information.
7. Test the installation by running "uf110c -v"
8. You can specify the server on the command line: uf110c -server server[:port] -v. The port is optional and only necessary if the server is listening on a non-default port (27502 for 11.0). For example, uf110c -server 192.168.1.10:27322 -v.
