InstallShield Tuner 6.0.1 creates corrupt MST files

Question

MST files for Acrobat 6.0 Professional, which are created with InstallShield Tuner 6.0.1, neither do work, nor can be loaded into Orca.
I remarked, that the file AcroPro.mst is destroyed when loading AcroPro.itw. If I fix it before creating a new project, it seems to work.
Has anybody found a better workaround, than to fix AcroPro.mst, every time after starting InstallShield Tuner 6.0.1?
Has anybody a copy of InstallShield Tuner 6.0. May be it works with InstallShield Tuner 6.0.

Answer 1

The MST file that comes with Reader, Pro, Stnd, Elements is not meant to be opened in InstallShield Tuner for Acrobat. According to the documentation linked from the download page, you open the ITW file when you first open Tuner, then select the MSI file, then select Create Transform, and Tuner creates the MST for you.
You'll need both the MST that Tuner creates AND the original MST that comes with the product... You can see this if you select the 'create a setup.exe' option (I can't remember exactly what it's called) in the Package section of Tuner, then do the Packaging, and then look at the setup.ini in the resulting package...the CmdLine= section of setup.ini will have both MSTs listed with a semicolon between them.
