This article explains how to deploy Adobe Acrobat if you are using Adobe Creative Cloud for teams Single App. It applies to both Acrobat Pro and Acrobat Standard.
If you have a Creative Cloud All Apps subscription, use Creative Cloud Packager for deploying Acrobat. See this page for detailed instructions.
To deploy Acrobat as Creative Cloud for teams Single App, perform the following steps in sequence:
Before you download Acrobat, ensure that your system meets the requirements:
|
Windows |
Mac |
Acrobat Pro (Continuous) |
||
Acrobat Standard (Continuous) |
n/a |
Notes:
After installation of Customization wizard, launch the wizard for Acrobat and follow the steps:
To change installer package, do the following:
Acrobat is configured to automatically ping Adobe servers to determine if there is a new patch/update available. If you want to change it for your deployment, you can do that using the Customization wizard.
Windows installers are self extracting exe files. Run the downloaded exe once to extract the installer files. By default, the installer files are extracted in an "Acrobat" folder on your desktop. To install Acrobat on Windows, do any one of the following:
Navigate to Acrobat folder in command prompt and run the following command:
Syntax example:
Setup.exe /sl "[LangCode]" /sALL
In the command above:
2052=Chinese Simplified
1028=Chinese Traditional
1029=Czech
1030=Danish
1043=Dutch (Netherlands)
1033=English (United States)
1035=Finnish
1036=French (France)
1031=German (Germany)
1038=Hungarian
1040=Italian (Italy)
1041=Japanese
1042=Korean
1044=Norwegian (Bokmal)
1045=Polish
1046=Portuguese (Brazil)
1049=Russian
1051=Slovak
1060=Slovenian
1034=Spanish (Traditional Sort)
1053=Swedish
1055=Turkish
1058=Ukrainian
1025=English with Arabic support
1037=English with Hebrew support
6156=French (Morocco)
For example, if you pass “1033” in [LangCode], Acrobat launches in English.
In this method, you can simply copy the "Acrobat" installer folder you extracted from the downloaded exe (and optionally customized) to a user's machine and run Setup.exe to start the installation.
You can also follow usual deployment practices for Acrobat as mentioned in Acrobat ETK – http://www.adobe.com/devnet-docs/acrobatetk/#.
The following example shows Acrobat Deployment through SCCM:
Run the downloaded exe to extract the installer in "Acrobat" folder. By default, files are extracted to your desktop. Once extraction is completed, do not proceed with install yet. You will have the extracted installer files, which you will use to deploy Acrobat using SCCM. Follow the usual processes for creating a package for deployment in SCCM Configuration manager. Give the path of Setup.exe in the Create Program wizard in SCCM (see below).
Use it to deploy Acrobat using SCCM. Follow the usual processes for creating a package for deployment in SCCM Configuration manager. Give the path of Setup.exe in the "Create Program wizard" in SCCM (see below).
Once you have deployed Acrobat, you can uninstall it using the usual process for uninstalling msi packages. It can be done individually using "Add and Remove Programs" in Windows "Control Panel". Also it can be done using command line. Here is the command line syntax for uninstalling the Adobe Acrobat:
Syntax Example:
msiexec.exe /x <path to Acrobat msi file> /qn
To install Acrobat on macOS, simply install the downloaded installer package (or the customized package if you have to use the customization wizard).
macOS installers are .pkg type installers that provide the necessary user interface prompts to run.
You can use standard deployment practices on macOS like ARD to deploy the chained package. More information is available in Acrobat ETK: http://www.adobe.com/devnet-docs/acrobatetk/#.
You can deploy Acrobat Updates using standard deployment practices used in your organization. For more information about updates, see Patch release notes.
