Acrobat 9 standard deployment always Italian

Hello,
First of all, this is the most worst deployment system i have ever seen.
The AIP or Bootstrap way; why is there not one total update why do i need to install about 5 patches to get to the latest update?
This way the total installation time for the installation is going to be very long.
I need to deploy Acrobat 9 standard to clients using MDT 2010.
I try to use the msi with an .mst file: msiexec /L*v c:\Log.txt /i AcroStan.msi TRANSFORM="AcroStan.mst" /q
It does not install anything and the log file is in Italian. When i run the installation without /q (silent) i get a Italian interface.
Within the setup.ini and within the AcroStan.mst i have dutch selected using Adobe Customization Wizard 9.
When i run the setp.exe i will get dutch interface, just the way i wanted.
Probally i am doing something wrong
I intend to deploy several single licenses installation on several clients, so i need to make different .mst files with the different product keys in it.
Otherwise i would have used the setup.exe to deploy and i do not want to have 5 copies of the installation of Acrobat 9.
Anyone who can help me?
Regards,
Francis

Hi Francis,
The language mst files provided with the setup for your installer do not automatically get copied to the Administrative Install Point (AIP) that is created using the msiexec utility. If you are running your setup through the patched AIP (for 9.4.3), the installer will install it in the default language which is Italian (For Italian, Spanish, Dutch and Portugese group installer).
You should follow the steps listed below to create the AIP and install from it.
1. Create the AIP for 9.0 Acrobat ISDP installer using the following command line
2. CD to AIP and patch it till the version you want (9.4.3)
3. Copy the language mst files (e.g. 1034.mst-Spanish, 1040.mst-Italian, 1043.mst-Dutch & 1046.mst-Portugese) available in the orignial installer to the AIP folder.
4. Create the custom .mst file for all the customizations you require and copy this also to the AIP folder.
5. Deploy from the AIP using the following commmand line:
msiexec /i AcroStan.msi TRANSFORM="1043.mst";"Custom.mst" /qf.
This should work and you shoould see the Dutch UI as well as your customizations should also apply.
Let me know if you find any issues.
Thanks,
Vinod

  • Group Policy Deployment Acrobat Standard XI Version 11

    I was able to successfully create a Windows 2008 R2 SP1 Group Policy that would be able to distribute the Adobe Reader Application using the Adobe Customization Wizard XI. I tried to use the same procedure from the Adobe Acrobat Standard 11 download from the adobe licensing site and was unable to get the Group Policy to work. The error message that I am getting is...
    The install of application Adobe Acrobat XI Standard 11.0 from policy  Deploy Adobe Acrobat 11 failed. The error was : %%1603
    This is the procedure that I created for deployment of Adobe Acrobat XI using Group Policy.
    How to create a group policy deployment of Adobe Acrobat XI
    Overview:
    This procedure covers the steps needed to create a group policy that will deploy the Adobe Acrobat installation.
    Requirements
    •    Windows 2008 Group Policy
    •    Adobe Acrobat Customization Wizard
         o    ftp://ftp.adobe.com/pub/adobe/acrobat/win/11.x/11.0.00/misc/CustWiz11000_en_US.exe

    2.    Extract the contents of the Adobe Acrobat XI package.
    a.    Type msiexec.exe /a AcroStan.msi
    b.    Click Next
    c.    Put in the Network Location Share where everyone can extract the installation.
    d.    Click Install
    e.    The package will then extract to the network location as indicated above.
    f.    Click Finish, once the installation has completed.
    g.    Open the Adobe Customization XI Wizard, and customize the package by selecting the AcroStan.msi file. 
    h.    Customize the AcroStan.MSI installation file   
    i.    Default viewer of PDF files: Make Acrobat the Default PDF Viewer
    ii.    Remove previous versions of Acrobat
    iii.    Run Installation: Silently
    iv.    If reboot is required at the end of installation: Suppress reboot
    i.    Shortcuts: Remove the desktop Shortcut
    j.    Online and Adobe Services: Disable Product Improvement Program: checked.
    k.   Generate Transform File
    i.    Click Transform > Generate Transform File
    ii.   Create an Setup.Ini file in the folder of the Distribution Package.
    iii.  Name the Transform File something useful like “CompanyConfigs”.
    3.    Create a Group Policy to deploy the software package. It is usually best to have a group policy for each software installation package.

    Note: This setting can be used to uninstall the application if the group policy ever changes in that the application should be removed.
    vii.    The package is now created …
    4.    Test the Client in a Virtual Machine
    a.    Go to a windows client and run “gpupdate /force”.
    b.    The system will then respond that it needs to restart the computer.
    c.    Type Yes, and allow the computer to reboot.
    d.    If Group Policy is not setup to allow for verbose messages in Windows 7 then the user will just see “Please wait…”, if verbose message is enabled the user will see “Installing Adobe Acrobat…”.
    Can someone please tell me what I am missing to get the group policy deployed? It has the same permissions as the Adobe Reader folder and I have done everything exactly the same, except that Adobe Standard has the license number, and owner information included in the Transform file (.mst).
    Thank you.

    Your case isn't unique. We've heard this a lot. While Acrobat has a small, very small percentage of settings available in the ADMX files,
    in case you don't know, PolicyPak software has a solution to manipulate, basically, near 100% of the settings in Acrobat Reader and Professional.
    You're welcome to check out how it works. These videos are for Acrobat X, but there is also tempaltes in the download for XI.
    Here are links to the pages with full how-to videos:
    http://www.policypak.com/products/manage-acrobat-reader-with-group-policy.html
    and
    http://www.policypak.com/products/manage-acrobat-x-pro-and-acrobat-x-standard-using-group- policy.html
    You can be up and running in 20 minutes, but note, it's NOT a template.. PolicyPak is full application management and lockdown system.

  • How to package and deploy Acrobat Standard without a Serial Number?

    Hello,
    In our environment we package applications without Serial Numbers depending on what it is.  We do this so we can actively manage applications and we don't need to buy a licence for each and every user.  If you never run the app, you don't need a licence, if you leave the firm we know what licenced apps you have and so can redeploy to someone who needs it.
    How can we deploy Acrobat Standard to some of our users without a S/N attached?  I've deployed Acrobat Pro using the trial software, when the user fires up Pro they have to enter a Serial Number before they can move on.  Is there such a feature for Standard?
    We really don't want to have to do a manual install for 60+ machines it would be a massive waste of time.
    Any thoughts on the best way to proceed here?
    Thanks
    Mark

    Those numbers should be on the internet. Apologies if my answers are confusing. I'll try again:
    You can't deploy without a serial number.
    You need a volume license.
    Use the Wizard to customize the installer.
    The Wizard allows you to preserialize the installer.
    Updates don't need to be serialized. Just chain the latest update with the base install as described in the Admin Guide. Alternatively, you can do it later.
    As far as adding seats, I don't know the answer. The Admin Guide links to licensing FAQs, but you can also try the Licensing Web Site, support, or your sale's person. You could also try creating another thread with the "add seat" question in the title.

  • Acrobat Standard X & Topaz SigPlus & GemSign Plus Plugins

    I'm stuck in a crappy situation and am hoping someone has a good way out in mind...
    We have to deploy Acrobat Standard X 10.1.6, Topaz SigPlus and Topaz GemSign plugin for Acrobat to a LOT of machines via GPO.  I've already built a package for Acrobat using the customization wizard and it works fine.  I've also written a batch script to install SigPlus based on the documentation from Topaz which also works.  Where I'm stuck is trying to find a solution for installing the GemSign plugin.  The installer from Topaz is a GUI based exe installer and Topaz support has so far refused to help.  They won't provide an installer that supports silent / unattended installation and I can't find any documentation on how to write a script to install it like I did for SigPlus.
    My question(s) are: 
    Is it possible to bundle the plugin into the custom Acrobat install package using the Customization Wizard?  If so, any documentation available or any steps anyone can share?
    Has anyone deployed the GemSign plugin package as a silent install?  If so, can you tell me how you did it?
    Thanks in advance for any suggestions!

    GemSign might install a device driver that interacts with the signature tablet.  If it doesn't then you can use the files and folders panel in the Adobe Customization Wizard to place the plugin without even writing a script however check with the manufacturer to double check about the driver.  You could always test it too.  Just install the plug-in and then use the Customization Wizard to place it after installing both Acrobat and the SigPlus software on a test machine to see if it works.  A lot of work but it may answer your question if you are getting no help from the plug-in vendor.

  • Acrobat Standard 6.0 Set as Default Viewer, but Browser is looking for Adobe Reader 8 or 9

    All,
    I use Adobe Acrobat Standard 6.0 for viewing and creating PDF's.  Just a couple of days ago, I tried opening a patent document I found on Google.  The browser displayed the following error:
    "The Adobe Acrobat/Reader that is running can not be used to view PDF files in a Web Browser.  Adobe Acrobat/Reader version 8 or 9 is required.  Please exit and try again."
    So I looked for an update for Adobe Reader and downloaded Adobe Reader 9.1.2.
    The next PDF document that I opened came up in Adobe Reader....NOT Adobe Acrobat.  The installation must have changed the default viewer.  So I right-clicked on the PDF file icon and selected OPEN WITH Adobe Acrobat.  I clicked the checkbox to "Always open with this program..."  This seems to have fixed the default viewer problem, as PDF files now open with Adobe Acrobat Standard...just the way I want things to work.
    I still have the problem of not being able to open many documents within a browser...I think because the browser is looking to open the PDF files in Adobe Reader 9.1.2, NOT Acrobat 6.0.  But Adobe Acrobat is now the default viewer.
    Does Acrobat function independently of Reader?  Or is Reader a module that is required for Acrobat to function properly?  Whatever the case may be, can somebody suggest a fix for this problem?
    Thanks,
    Neal
    [email address deleted by host]

    They do not require each other for running as mentioned. There are some modules in common and that is where you run into problems. There are issues with the parts that remain resident also. I would suggest you follow the other advice you have been given. Unfortunately, there are some PDFs that may not open correctly in AA6. You may have run into some of those.

  • Reinstall Adobe Acrobat Standard 9

    Hello,
    I recently had a hardware malfunction and had to replace my Surface Pro. I purchased Adobe Acrobat Standard 9 and want to reinstall it on the new tablet but cannot find a link to the installation files. I have the serial number in my Adobe account but can only find install files for updates.
    Can anyone direct me to the full installation link for Standard 9?
    Thanks,
    George

    During the install of an upgrade, you should be asked for the serial number of the previous version. You should always keep backups of downloaded software and the serial numbers. As long as you registered, Adobe should be able to help you with the serial number. I am not sure why the Std version is not available for download. The Pro version is with a little searching. Though not said, I wonder if the Pro version would install with the Standard SN and work as standard -- I really don't know, but some software vendors wrap all of the versions into a single distribution and the only difference comes with the serial number.

  • Add the bookmark by coding with Acrobat Standard 9.0

    I adds the bookmark by the Acrobat SDK, the method is OK in the ACrobat 8.0, but in the Acrobat Standard 9.0, it's NOT steady, sometimes it's OK,
    but NOT always.
    My code is as follows:
    ==================================================
    CAcroApp oMainAcroApp;
    oMainAcroApp.CreateDispatch("AcroExch.App",&e);

    The code refers to the sample of the Acrobat SDK, but it runs failurely.
    How should I revise the code or is there other method to add the bookmarks?
    Please help me as soon as possible.

    I have just purchased acrobat professional 9. I need to scan multiple documents and can't. The hide scanners native interface is grayed out and I can't change it to "show scanners native interface". Can someone please help. I have a newer dell photo 966 all in one printer.

  • Acrobat standard x avi

    Hi everyone. 
    We just updated our office package to 2010 and guess what, Standard 9 no longer works with office!  Great.
    So we need to upgrade to X to fix this problem but...
    We do not want Acrobat to convert AVIs to SWF when they are embedded into a PDF. As I understand it Acrobat Standard 9 leaves the AVIs alone, whereas the Pro version always converts to SWF. I’m assuming that the X versions work in the same way. The problem with SWF is the low quality of the AVIs once they have been embedded, caused by the type of avi we need to embed.

    You cannot.
    Acrobat X will only embed Flash FLV or H.264 videos in rich media annotations. Support for authoring legacy media (AVI, WMV, etc.) in PDF files has been removed as the feature is not secure (legacy playback is disabled by default in all current shipping versions of Acrobat and Adobe Reader).

  • Acrobat Standard 9.0 GPF failure starting scanner

    Windows XP SP3. 2GB memory, many tens of GB free disk.
    Acrobat Standard 9.0 blows up at "Create - From Scanner". Selecting any menu mode, grayscale, color, immediately blows up with GPF, and it gets no farther. No selection box appears about from which scanner, etc.
    AppName: acrobat.exe AppVer: 9.0.0.332 ModName: scan.api
    ModVer: 9.0.0.332 Offset: 0002be9e
    Acrobat About says 9.0.0
    Plugins About says Scan.api is 9.0.0 6/12/2008
    Acrobat appears to work except for scanner. Never tried scanner from 9 before, first time. However the TWAIN scanner still works very well from Photoshop CS3 and others, and it always worked with Acrobat 6. Do not think it is the scanner, as I cannot get the Create From Scanner option box first.
    Suggestions appreciated.

  • Acrobat 9 deployment question: error initializing interpreter

    I've tried deploying Acrobat 9 silently at (3) client sites with the same result.  In all cases the installation finishes with this error message:
    Error initializing interpreter: Fatal error
    Further patches from this point on will fail to patch the Distiller component, though a repair seems to fix it.  Here are the things I have tried to far to no avail.  Does anyone have any ideas?
    Deploying with the following command-line options:
    msiexec.exe /i path\to\AcroStan.msi TRANSFORMS=path\to\AcroStan.mst /QB-
    msiexec.exe /i path\to\AcroStan.msi TRANSFORMS=path\to\AcroStan.mst /QB!

    msiexec.exe /i path\to\AcroStan.msi TRANSFORMS=path\to\AcroStan.mst /QN
    I have tried this while deploying the following versions:
    Acrobat Professional 9.0
    Acrobat Professional 9.1
    Acrobat Professional 9.2
    Acrobat Standard 9.0
    Acrobat Standard 9.3.1
    I have tried creating an administrative install point as outlined in the deployment guide, but the result is the same.
    I have tried installing manually as a domain administrator and with our software distribution tools.
    I am out of ideas.

    Acrobat is deployed by SCCM => error message
    Manual installation works => No error message
    it seems that the problem comes from SCCM

  • Adobe Acrobat Standard XI: Why prompted to save file when nothing changed?

    I have Adobe Acrobat Standard as the default PDF reader. I PDF printed a page from a website. Then I clicked to open the PDF. After I finished viewing the file, I closed the window. Adobe Acrobat prompts me to save: Yes, No, Cancel. Since I changed absolutly nothing, I am puzzled why Adobe Acrobat's save dialog thinks there are changes and askes me whether I want to save the changes.
    I have repeated opening and closing the PDFseveral times.
    Then, I tried opening and closing another PDF, and it just closes without prompting to save.
    Why do I get different behaviors on different PDFs? And can I control the behavior to get or not get the save prompt when there are no changes?

    I like that Adobe Acrobat will correct problems, then ask you whether to save.
    In the case of this file, I click Yes to save. Then the next time I open and close the file, it asks again, and I click Yes to save. Adobe Acrobat always does it with this file.
    With another file, Adobe Acrobat (AA) does not prompt, unless I change the file.
    I don't know which difference matters. AA created both PDFs. The problem file was a print from a webpage. The good file (that closes without prompting) was created from a scanner.
    I tried PDF printing this page (i.e. the page on which I am composing my response to your message). Then, I opened and closed the PDF, and was prompted to save.
    Seems like if AA corrected the problem, and I saved, AA should not have to correct the problem again (if that is what's happening). Also, if AA made the PDF in the first place, there should be no problems with the PDFto correct.
    You know what? I just tried printing another website and same prompting everytime I close.
    I've been using Chrome. I tried printing with Internet Explorer, and no problem of prompting when closing.
    Hmm. I just tried PDF printing from FireFox. No problem here either.
    Well, Now I suppose I just leave it for Google and Adobe to work out, if they care to.
    I just tried opening the problem file in AA and PDF printing from it. This seems to have cleaned the file. The second PDF file has no problem opening and closing.
    I've got an idea. I just went to the address bar in Chrome and typed "Chrome://plugins". That's the only way I know to get to the Chrome plugins. I saw that I have BOTH the Chrome built-in PDF Reader  AND the Adobe Create plugins enabled. I disabled the Chrome PDF Reader so ONLY the Adobe Create plugin is enabled.
    I printed this webpage again (the webpage you are reading). This time, there was no problem opening and closing the PDF, no prompts to save.
    However, now online PDFs will not display in Chrome. Instead, Chrome offers to download the PDF.
    I went back to the plugins and found Adobe Reader disabled. I enabled Adobe Reader so now I have both Adobe Reader and Adobe Create plugins enabled.
    The problem came back.
    I don't know who would fix this, Adobe or Chrome, but would be nice to "have my cake and eat it, too" meaning, not have to muck with the plugins to AA-print clean PDFs from Chrome, and then muck again with the plugins to display PDFs in Chrome.
    I tried FireFox. Displays PDFs, and AA-prints PDFs that are clean (i.e. no prompt on closing from AA).
    Well, that is enough (maybe more than enough) from me on this. I'll monitor this discussion in case anyone comments.

  • Acrobat Standard X Running very slow moving text boxes

    I am an IT Technician that has a user running Adobe Acrobat Standard X. He mainly does editing with PDF's adding text boxes. When moving a text box within the PDF the program freezes for 30+ seconds and goes into "Not Responding". It always comes back, but should not take this long to drag and drop a text box. I have looked through other forums and tried a couple of things to "speed up" the program a bit. I have gone through the Preferences and unchecked the Enhanced Security option, unchecked the option that does Background Downloading, and changed the Updater to notify befor downloading and installing new updates. Again these are solutions that I found within other forums. At this point I am willing to try anything that could possibly help. I would appreciate any input on this matter. Thank you
