Question on Office Web Component license agreement

[Chris]

I have a web application that retrive data from the MS-
SQL server using ASP. I pass the data to OWC to create
line graphs and pie charts and display on the webpages as
GIF images.

I want to know what kind of license do I need to publish
this application?

Do clients also need to obtain a valid license in order
to view the graphs? Or a valid license on the web server
is already sufficient?

Thanks.

your licensing issues are fully satisified with owc installed on the server
in this scenario. for more on licensing, have a look at:

In my scenario, is it true that clients don't need to
have a valid Office license to see the GIF/JPEG exports
from the server side OWC? This is what I've been
debating with my colleagues at work. In another words, I
just need to make sure the web server contain a valid
Office license?

Thanks
