Open a question to learn how Litera fits into real publishing work.

Does the desktop app work offline?

Litera Desktop currently requires an internet connection because projects, accounts, review activity and publishing services are securely synchronized with the Litera workspace.

Can I use the same account on different computers?

Yes. Sign in with your Litera account to access the workspace permitted by your role.

Why is my download marked as an early-access build?

Desktop installers are published as signed, tested releases. Early access lets teams validate their operating environment before a wider rollout.

How are updates delivered?

New installers are published as versioned releases. Managed automatic updates can be enabled after the signing and release channels are finalized.
