This free trial version lets you use all the features and tools
just like in the registered version of the product. Printing and
saving functions have been disabled in the trial. When you buy
a license key, the saving and printing features unlock.
If you already have an unlocked version installed on your computer
and want to upgrade to the current build, simply download and
run the installer for your platform and you'll be upgraded to
the new version.
Life Plan Writer requires Java 6, which is already installed

Plan Writer FAQs
Java 6 on 64-bit Mac Isn't Working
Although Java 6 is installed in Mac OS 10.5.5, it is not automatically
activated as the default machine. Here is what you have to do
per Apple support:
Go to Applications folder and find the Utilities folder.
Inside Utilities find the Java folder.
Inside Java folder double click on Java Preferences.app.
You will see two white windows. In the bottom one called "Java
application versions" you will see Java SE6 in the list.
Click once on this and drag this name so that it is at the top
of the list. This will change the preferred version of Java
on your machine to Java 6.
Uninstalling on Linux
On some varieties and set ups of Linux, an uninstall link is not
created. To uninstall Life Plan Writer, navigate to the Life Plan Writer folder (where LifePlanWriter.jar is located). In that folder,
you will find a file named "uninstall." Run that (usually
by double-clicking) and Life Plan Writer will be completely uninstalled
from your computer.
Will my existing Life Plan Writer 5 files work with Life Plan
Writer 6?
Unfortunately, no. The old Windows-only format of the earlier
versions won't work on the new Java platform, which will work
on any operating system.
