  2. Click Edit profile & settings from the drop-down menu

  3. Click Plan & Billing under Admin on the left column

  4. Click Start Plan Now, a green link found in a light blue box under Your Plan

Export an illustration with a Publication License

You can also start your subscription early by downloading a publication license.

When exporting on a Trial and attempting to download a publication license, a pop-up window will appear stating that publication licenses aren't available to download during the Free Trial.

To start your subscription early, follow these steps within the pop-up window:

  1. Check the box next to "I would like a publication license with this export” in the light blue section titled Publication Permissions and click the Export button at the bottom of the pop-up window.

  2. Click on Start Plan Now on the second page.

  3. Click on Start Plan Now on the third page.

Please note that this video does not have audio.

After the second Start Plan Now confirmation, the app will process your payment method on file, and your subscription will be activated.
