There are 2 types of bundles:

Note that if 1 item is missing on a bundle, the bundle will not appear in the “About” window. For example, if a license was provided with Graphics, Barcode, Text, and Spelling but no Barcode, “Digital” will not appear as a bundle:

How to check what modules are licensed for GVD 5.8.X:
