After you receive an email containing your license key, copy all the characters between the -- License Key Start and the -- License Key End -- lines.
If the Velocity Server is on a different computer, paste your license key into Notepad, save it as a text file, and transfer it between computers. Ensure that the word wrap option is turned off, indicated by the absence of a checkmark in front of the Format ▶ Word Wrap command.
