Description

### What type of update are you requesting?

A new version of an existing package

### Current Package Identifier

Foxit.PhantomPDF.Subscription.MSI

### Package Version

2025.2.1.33197

### Please describe the changes you would like to see

The current ID Foxit.PhantomPDF.Subscription.MSI is installing the perpetual version of Foxit PDF Editor rather than the Subscription version of the application. This will cause activation problems for orgs using the sub version. Can we get this remedied?
