I just downloaded MainType to try out before I buy on March 10, 2008 and now, just a week later it says it has expired and I have to register. I will probably end up buying, but I wanted to mess with it some more to make sure.
I did do a system restore, but only a one day back restore, so don’t think that would do it?
Any help would be appreciated.
Maybe you have changed the date on your Computer, that would confuse the trial mechanism. Anyway you should have been able to start MainType at least 5 times, even after the 30-day trial. You can continue to work within MainType, but some features (like installing fonts) are disabled. To enable all features you need to buy a license.

I hope you like and enjoy using our software, and I look forward to your order.
Take a look at My Review and ask some questions about what it can or cannot do. I’m not an expert on MainType, but others will be able to tell you more.
After the trial period MainType will continue to run, but in restricted mode. AFAIK you can still use it to view fonts, but not to manage them.
Thanks to both of you for getting back to me so quickly. I appreciate it.
