With RDS and XenApp you like to customize the Adobe Reader installation, which allows you to configure some settings and remove some features. This post describes how to customize Adobe Reader and also deploy the updates.
Before you can start with the deploying Adobe Reader you need to download the following files:
- Customization Wizard;
- Adobe Reader 11.00.00; Choose the language you like to use.
- Adobe Reader Updates; Choose the appropriate language or use the misc folder to use the multi language version.
After downloading all necessary files you need to extract the Adobe Reader XI installation, where you can use to deploy it later. The extraction can be done using the following command:
AdbeRdr11000_nl_NL.exe -nos_o”D:\Install\Adobe\Reader XI” -nos_ne
Update:
Recently I tried to extract the files but the above command didn’t worked, after reading the Admin Guide I found that it’s also possible to use the following command:
AdbeRdr11000_nl_NL.exe -sfx_ne -sfx_o”D:\Install\Adobe\Reader XI”
