What the licence covers
- One teacher, their own machines. Typically a school laptop and a home computer.
- Documents you make are yours. Drawings become ordinary Word content: print them, project them, put them on a worksheet, upload them to your school's system.
- Perpetual for version 3.1. Nothing expires, and no further payment is needed to keep using it.
- Compatibility fixes included. If Word changes something that breaks us, the fix for your version is free.
- Major versions are separate. the v3.1 upgrade pack costs US$14.90 rather than the full price.
What it does not cover
- Sharing the licence, the installer or the library with colleagues who are not covered - that is what the school licence is for.
- A department or whole-school roll-out: we quote per school.
- Reselling, or bundling the library into another product.
7 days, every feature, no card. The trial is not a cut-down edition - it is the whole library, so you can decide on your own worksheets rather than on screenshots.
Upgrades, refunds and tax
Major upgrades
Version 3.1 is what you buy today. When a future major version changes the architecture, moving to it costs US$14.90 (the v3.1 upgrade pack) rather than the full price again. Upgrading stays your choice: your version keeps working and keeps receiving its compatibility fixes.
30-day refund
If it does not suit your classroom, ask for a refund within 30 days of purchase. Waffo Pancake is the seller of record, so the money comes back through them; write to myhama@hotmail.com and we will ask on your behalf.
Taxes and receipts
Payment is handled by Waffo Pancake, which acts as the merchant of record: the receipt, the invoice and any sales tax or VAT are theirs, and appear in their customer portal. Prices on this site are in USD.
Buying questions
Why is there no subscription?
Because a teacher should not have to keep paying for a drawing they have already used for three years. The shareware licence this product has carried since 2001 is a one-time payment, and we would rather keep that promise than rent the library out by the month.
How long does the trial last, and what does it include?
7 days, with every drawing, every calculator and every feature. The trial starts the first time you open the template, and no card is asked for at any point.
Can I move it to a new computer?
Yes. The classic template takes the same 20-character key it was licensed with - the key is not tied to a machine.
Do you sell to schools and departments?
Yes - tell us how many teachers and we will quote for the school. Bulk licences are quoted per school rather than sold from a price list.
What happens if I need an invoice or a purchase order?
Say so when you write to us. The invoice comes from Waffo Pancake as the seller of record, and we can point your finance office at the right document.
Is the licence per computer or per teacher?
Per teacher. One licence covers the machines that teacher personally uses, including one at home. Drawings inside documents are not restricted - the documents are yours.
