How to deploy Acrobat DC Pro 2017 to Workstations, Not Users?

$
0
0

We want to deploy Acrobat Pro 2017 to workstations assigned to users.

We do not want to "invite" users to create their own individual Adobe accounts and install it themselves.

However, the licensing site for Acrobat seems to be set up to assign it that way.

 

How do we change this so I can download the Acrobat DC Pro package to our network and push it out to workstations with SCCM as needed.

We need to have this centrally managed, not have users do their own installations.

Many users don't even have admin rights to install this on their own anyway.

 

Users come and go, so we do not want licenses tied to external user accounts that we have to maintain outside of our own domain.


Approved Trust Certificate List - Update Now

$

0

Hi,

 

We have Adobe Acrobat DC deployed to all of our users. We need to load the trusted root certificates from an Adobe Server. Clicking "Update Now" works, which is great because we get the certificates and our issue is resolved. However, we need to do this for all users.

 

To try and achieve this, I made 2 changes:

Computer\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Adobe\Adobe Acrobat\DC\Security\cDigSig\cAdobeDownload - bAskBeforeInstalling

Changed from 1 to 0

 

Computer\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Adobe\Adobe Acrobat\DC\Security\cDigSig\cAdobeDownload - bLoadSettingsFromURL

Changed from 0 to 1

 

The effect of these 2 Registry changes was to tick the box for "Load trusted root certificates from an Adobe server" and to untick the box for "Ask before updating". These settings are found in Adobe Reader under Edit > Preferences > Trust Manager.

 

These changes do not result in the certificates being downloaded though; but only seem to set the tick boxes as desired. So I'm wondering, how do we effectively click the "Update Now" for all users? Is there a Registry change that we can do for this as well?

 

Currently, we have just 1 Certificate under Edit > Preferences > Signatures > More (under Identities & Trusted Certificates). We get many, many more after clicking "Update Now".

 

Thanks to anyone who can offer any help/advice.

Problem with the Enterprise version of Adobe Reader 10.1.3

$

0

I tried deploying the 10.1.3 in the way I successfully deployed 1.1 and 1.2, but kept getting errors about a transform on install. I tried installing the patched MSI without any transforms, but still got the error. Then I tried running the download straight from the enterprise distribution link, but that didn't work either, even on a computer without Adobe Reader installed.

 

I think there might be something wrong with the enterprise distribution.

Packaging Adobe Standard X with patch 1010/1011/1012/1013- Patch Install Fail

$

Hey guys,

I need some help.

 

I'm trying to do a package to install AdobeStd X (deployed through SCCM2012 on Win7). I have the original AcroStd packaged done through Customization WizardX with the license key.

As part of the folder, I have the following script attached to install:

AcrobatUpd1010.msp

AcrobatUpd1011.msp

AcrobatUpd1012.msp

AcrobatUpd1013.msp

 

 

Copy of Script for AdobeStdX Setup.ini :

 

 

[Startup]

RequireOS=Windows XP

RequireMSI=3.0

RequireIE=6.0.2600.0

CmdLine=/sl"1033" /spb /rs

 

[Product]

msi=AcroStan.msi

Languages=1033;1036

1033=English (United States)

1036=French (France)

CmdLine=TRANSFORMS="AcroStan.mst"

PATCH=AcrobatUpd1010.msp;AcrobatUpd1011.msp;AcrobatUpd1012.msp;AcrobatUpd1013.msp

 

 

[Windows XP]

PlatformID=2

MajorVersion=5

MinorVersion=1

ServicePackMajor=2

 

 

[MSI Updater]

Path=WindowsInstaller-KB893803-v2-x86.exe

 

 

However, when I run the Setup.exe the system crashs:

This patch package could not be opened. Contac the application vendor to verify that this is a valid Windows Installer patch package.

 

If I run the setup.exe without the cmdline to install the patchs however in the .ini file, it works.

Also, we had done the same package for Adobe Pro X with the same type of script and upgrade patch and it worked.

 

 

Copy of Script for AdobeProX Setup.ini :

 

[Startup]

RequireOS=Windows XP

RequireMSI=3.0

RequireIE=6.0.2600.0

CmdLine=/sl"1033" /spb /rs

 

[Product]

msi=AcroPro.msi

Languages=1033;1036

1033=English (United States)

1036=French (France)

CmdLine=TRANSFORMS="AcroPro.mst"

PATCH=AcrobatUpd1010.msp;AcrobatUpd1011.msp;AcrobatUpd1012.msp;AcrobatUpd1013.msp

 

 

[Windows XP]

PlatformID=2

MajorVersion=5

MinorVersion=1

ServicePackMajor=2

 

[MSI Updater]

Path=WindowsInstaller-KB893803-v2-x86.exe

 

 

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I need to know where I can change the serial number for Acrobat X after imaging PC's.

$
0

We order Dell computers with Acrobat X Std and Office 2010 pre-installed. We do not get media, but we do get the serial numbers on cards with each PC. We create an image of a PC the way we want it with our most commonly used programs, settings and customization. We use Windows 7 sysprep with a unattended.xml answer file and some scripts when we are done. When this is finished we image the machine and deploy it on others so everything starts with the same configuration.When the PC is freshly imaged all we have to do is name it (we use our asset tag) and join it to the domain. Then we go into appwiz.cpl (add/remove programs) and click on Microsoft Office 2010, then the change button then choose enter a product key. We enter the key from the card that shipped with the physical computer.

 

Now I don’t see a place to do this for Adobe. We are legit and pay extra per PC to Dell so we get the software license code on a card, as we do with Office. I just want to ensure that everything is kosher.

 

I know that sometimes after a PC is deployed, in a few days or weeks we may get a tech support call where the user has an Adobe Acrobat duplicate license detected screen. We remote on and just enter the new serial number from the proper key card we got from Dell. But I want to head this off at the pass here and ensure the licensing is working at deployment so we don’t have to take these calls a few days or weeks later.

 

Any idea where the change product key is? I tried the change function in appwiz.cpl but it looked like it would just take me to a reinstaller. It’s important that it does not mess with settings because I need one of our servers in the enhanced security trusted site area, as well as Topaz.GemPlus in our default signing, and a few other settings that carried over from us customizing it under the local Administrator and then setting the CopyProfile=True flag in unattended.xml answer file prior to sysprep.

Microsoft has informed me that this app is using the old Intune SDK and needs to be updated. The current version was last update on Feb 8, 2017. Is there a timeline on when the next new update will be? Will it be using the most up to date SDK for Intune?

Search in non OCRed pdfs

I have about 10K non OCRed pdfs, and I want to pick up all that contain the name of the  company "Fedex".

If I try to apply OCR before advanced search process it will take great amount of time, the pdfs are 100 pages and more.

 

But the thing is that keyword located in the beggining of the first page of the document. Is there any method to select all files contating the keyword without OCR of the whole document?

How do I disable USAGE INFORMATION in the .msi? I have used the Wizard to turn off all online services but after I install it its not there under Preferences. It somehow reappears after I launch Reader DC a few times, the USAGE INFORMATION returns. Anyone know how to remove this in the Wizard so that it doesn't report the usage back to Adobe? I want this featured to be turned off at the time of install and not have to change this setting after install.

 

Thanks!

Bonjour,

Au sein de l'entreprise je souhaite installer une VM accessible par des utilisateurs ayant besoin de Acrobat DC Pro.

Un seul utilisateur se connectera à la fois sur cette machine.

J'ai aujourd'hui une licence de la société mais à mon nom, basée sur mon @mail.

Comment puis-je faire pour que chaque utilisateur puisse utiliser l'application Acrobat DC sans avoir à renseigner mon nom de compte ?

 

Cordialement

Why are there such big differences in the size of the msp files if they are both all languages and why is the DC msp over 200MB and the exe is 150MB?

Acrobat DC activation behavior

$

I got trap into a complicated licensing issue. I'd bought below volume license:

1. 3 x Acrobat Pro DC2015 12.0 MLP AOO License IE

2. 2 x Acrobat DC2015 12.0 WIN AOO License IE

3. 2 x Acrobat Pro DC2015 12.0 MLP Upgrade License IE <- for item 2 above

 

The 5 licenses were installed and activated in 5 different Win Server 2008 R2. Recently I installed 1 new Win Server 2016 and plan to retire those old 2018 R2. Since it's still in testing stage. So, I'm not yet going to shutdown the old production servers. After activate the Acrobat Pro in Win Server 2016. I found that 1 of the Win Server 2018 R2 has its Acrobat Pro deactivate itself.

My first question is, is the above behavior normal when the number of times I activate more than the number of license I bought?

 

As the serial number of item 1 and 3 above are different. I already forgot which serial number use to activate which server. Lets say I shutdown 1 of the old server in order to free up 1 license. I don't know I should use which serial number to do the activation in Win Server 2016.

My second question is how to find out the serial number in each old server that use to activated Acrobat Pro? Or do I need to use 3rd party software such as this -> https://www.isumsoft.com/pdf/reinstall-or-transfter-acrobat-dc-to-a-new-computer.html

 

I don't see any "deactivate" option in Acrobat Pro. Is this normal when use volume license?

Ok, have adobe standard XI. end user needs Pro to redact sections of pdf's.

 

paid 199.00 for digital upgrade from standard to pro. download...execute...

 

error on starting setup. setup has detected you already have a more functional product installed....installation will now terminate.    

 

I have 2 choices. the Go to hell adobe your product dont work, and process a refund.

 

or

 

try to get phone technical support.

 

Honestly why does adobe make it so difficult to work with them. My company needs digital signatures and i'd never use adobe. Adobe support is the worst in the IT industry imo and apparently their software developers cant determine that Pro is and UPGRADE from standard.

 

if anyone understands a work around i'd be interested in hearing but i can't say i've ever had an efficient experience with adobe and i wish i could find an alternative for adobe acrobat pro.

Is there any special switch or command I need to add in to make this work? I am deploying on an RM CC4 network. So I have an install command box in the package properties where I can add in command switches. Thanks.


Does anybody have experience with deploying Adobe Pro 17 on non-persistent virtual desktops?

$
0
0

I am having a few issues deploying Adobe Pro 17 to a gold image. I want to disable the sign on and registration prompt so the end users don't have to do it every time they log in. In my environment, we use Vmware, Citrix, and ProfileUnity to deploy a pool of virtual desktops. Every time a user logs in, they are issued a random desktop from the pool. Adobe Pro 17 comes down to the user desktop from ProfileUnity. That part all works fine, but the user is prompted to sign in and register the product every time they are issued a new desktop from the pool. I am wondering if anybody has successfully deployed Adobe Pro in this fashion.

 

Thanks!

Deploy all 19 patches for Acrobat 9 in one step?

$

I have about a thousand machines that are all running Acrobat 9.0.0 - I wrote a script that looks like this:

 

strComputer = "."

Set objWMIService = GetObject("winmgmts:\\" & strComputer & "\root\cimv2")

 

On Error resume next

 

Set colAcrobat = objWMIService.ExecQuery ("Select * from Win32_Product Where Name like '%Adobe Acrobat%'")

 

For Each objSoftware in colAcrobat

          Acrobat = objSoftware.Upgrade (".\AcroProStdUpd910_T1T2_incr.msp",REBOOT=ReallySuppress)

          Wscript.Echo Acrobat

          Acrobat = objSoftware.Upgrade (".\AcrobatUpd911_all_incr.msp",REBOOT=ReallySuppress)

          Wscript.Echo Acrobat

          Acrobat = objSoftware.Upgrade (".\AcrobatUpd912_all_incr.msp",REBOOT=ReallySuppress)

          Wscript.Echo Acrobat

          Acrobat = objSoftware.Upgrade (".\AcrobatUpd913_all_incr.msp",REBOOT=ReallySuppress)

          Wscript.Echo Acrobat

 

etc etc

 

Right about after it installs 9.1.2 - I get an error with 9.1.3 - basically I need to reboot.

 

Is there some way of doing it in one go? This may work better if I run the script via sccm with the user logged off, but testing this thing is a total nightmare .

Unable to import KFP file From Acrobat DC Mac to Acrobat DC PC

Getting ready for an enterprise deployment of CC2018 and Acrobat DC. Trying to update the Custom Preflight Settings across platforms. I can Export from PC to MAC and import, but not the visa versa. The reason that we are doing this is to capture the output intent from the PDFs that were created with the current profile. Any clues why? I can export the KFP profiles from Acrobat 10 and import them to the PC side, but not from DC to DC.

How do I register multiple copies of Acrobat Pro 2017 in an office environment?

$

We recently purchased a volume license for Adobe Acrobat 2017. I used my own Adobe ID to log in/download software/retrieve a license, which was no big deal. I noticed I had to use my Adobe ID to register the software after installation.

 

My question is, do I have to get every user that will be installing this software a unique Adobe ID to register the software on their machines after I install it? I doubt they will want to see my name in the upper right corner of the software if I register everyone's software with my Adobe ID.

We are unable to download the latest patch for reader that was released yesterday. The FTP site appears to be down. Anyone else having trouble?

 

We received the announcement Adobe Security Bulletin  and I do what I always do but the site looks down. The direct links in the bulletin are only for Acrobat DC and not reader.
