What each generator documents about marking its output

Crossing points that come with a printed figure

Seven entries name the plan where the visible mark stops and print a figure beside it. The lowest is ten dollars a month and the highest thirty, a spread of three to one across the same behaviour. As of 2026-09-22.

What the figures in this column do and do not measureThe number beside a crossing point records where a vendor divides a trial from a customer, because the marking line is attached to that division. It does not measure anything about the mark, which costs the same to leave off at ten dollars a month as at thirty.What the figure recordsWhat it does notThe boundaryWhere a trial becomes a customerAnything about the mark itselfThe billingA list price, in the vendor's own termsPromotional first-month ratesThe fileNothingNo standard, no metadata fieldThe licenceNothing, unless separately statedPermission to publish the outputSeven entries print a figure; the column also holds the tier name

Inclusion rule. Entries whose pages both name the plan at which the visible mark stops and print a list price for that plan, so the crossing point can be quoted as a figure. Order. Alphabetical by generator name.

1A spread of three to one for the same behaviour

Leaving a logo off costs the same at either end of this list. What the figures record is not the price of a mark but the point at which each vendor stops treating a user as a trial and starts treating them as a customer, with the marking line riding along on that decision.

Which is why the column holds a tier name as well as a number. Two products whose crossing points differ by a factor of three can be identical on every fact that reaches a file, and a reader choosing between them on this column alone is choosing on packaging.

2Where the figure comes from, and its two forms

The value recorded is the list price the vendor prints for the first plan carrying the marking line. Several pages print two: one figure for monthly billing and a lower one for annual commitment. The register keeps the headline figure in the cell and the alternative in the prose of the reading, rather than averaging them into a number no vendor publishes.

Discounts complicate it further. A first-month promotional price is not a crossing point, because a lapsed discount returns the account to marked output. The figure that belongs here is what a subscription costs in the ordinary case, which is the list price and not the offer.

3What a figure does not buy on any of these rows

All seven record not documented for file contents. None of them describes the mark the money removes: no position, no size, no behaviour on export. Paying changes what a viewer sees and changes nothing a later recipient of the file could inspect.

Two of the seven attach a commercial licence to the same plans as the marking line and one puts the licence a tier higher, which produces a subscription whose output is clean and unpublishable. A figure in this column is a boundary for a mark and not a permission to publish.

The same values in register form are on the support table, the rule for this column is on the paid tier column page, and what may fill a cell at all is on the what earns a row page.
