If you look at that page you will see (at least I see) 2 large boxes. One labeled "Subscribe" the other "Purchase". If you want to "Purchase", that is the one-time fee option. I can't quote you in your currency since my location gives it to me in NT$ and I don't think you're in Taiwan. Standard is NT$2,599 and Professional NT$3,299 for a one time purchase. -- The key to getting good answers is to ask good questions.
