ChemDraw 23 Installation Instructions

 Prior to installing ChemOffice / ChemDraw, please complete and submit this form to register your ChemDraw license. We will reply once we have added your account to the license manager.

1. You will receive a Welcome email after registration from Revit Signals with a link to access your account.

6. A pop up window will appear. Keep this window open during the rest of the installation. Follow the instructions. It will guide you through the process.

The Blue buttons on the page are clickable and are necessary to complete the activation part of the software after you download and install the software.

    Start by clicking the Blue Button for Download.

    If you accidentally close the window, you can reopen it again by clicking the Installer tile on your Revvity home page.

7. Find your downloaded ChemDraw installer that you downloaded and proceed with the instructions to install the program. If you have a previous version of ChemOffice installed on your computer, you will need to uninstall it first before you can install Chemdraw 23. The installation is simple and will be very similar for Mac. We are only including the Windows installation pictures in this instruction set.
