To deploy Adobe Reader DC in the enterprise you must download it from ftp://ftp.adobe.com/pub/adobe/reader/win/AcrobatDC/
ftp_Adobe_Reader_DC

 

In the 1500720033 folder you find the .MSI file download the language you need ex. AcroRdrDC1500720033_en_US.msi

In the 1500820082 folder you find the .MSP patch file AcroRdrDCUpd1500820082.msp

 

To customize the .MSI files you need to create a .MST file – that can be done with “Acrobat Customization Wizard DC”

Download it from http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=5892%E2%80%8B

Acrobat_Customization_Wizard_DC

 

Install “Acrobat Customization Wizard DC” and create a .MST file

Before you create the .MST file you have to create a setup.ini as this:

[Startup]
RequireOS=Windows 2000
RequireMSI=3.0
RequireIE=6.0.2600.0
CmdLine=/spb /rs

[Product]
msi=AcroRdrDC1500720033_da_DK.msi

 

Reader_MSP1

Select “Suppress display of End User License Agreement (EULA)”

Reader_MSP2

Select “Make Reader the default PDF viewer”

Select “Silently (no interface)”

Select “Suppress reboot”

Reader_MSP3

Select ” Disable product updates”

Select “Disable Upsell”

 

Save and place the .MST files in the same folder as the .MSI and .MSP files

 

Now create a psappdeploytoolkit application:

psappdeploy1

Show-InstallationWelcome -CloseApps ‘AcroRd32,cidaemon’ -CloseAppsCountdown 120

For closing the Adobe Reader before installation

 

Remove-MSIApplications -Name ‘Adobe Acrobat Reader DC’

For removing all installed “Adobe Acrobat Reader DC”

 

 

psappdeploy2

Execute-MSI -Action Install -Path ‘AcroRdrDC1500720033_en_US.msi’ -Transform ‘AcroRdrDC1500720033_en_US.mst’

Install the downloaded .MSI files with the .MST files you created

 

Execute-MSI -Action Patch -Path ‘AcroRdrDCUpd1500820082.msp’

Install the downloaded patch as part of the installation

 

Download my Adobe Reader DC 15.008.20082 en-US packages

Download my Adobe Reader DC 15.008.20082 da-DK packages

 

Create the application in SCCM:

My app Deploy-Application.ps1 for Adobe Reader DC 15.008.20082 look like this:

<#
.SYNOPSIS
This script performs the installation or uninstallation of an application(s).
.DESCRIPTION
The script is provided as a template to perform an install or uninstall of an application(s).
The script either performs an “Install” deployment type or an “Uninstall” deployment type.
The install deployment type is broken down into 3 main sections/phases: Pre-Install, Install, and Post-Install.
The script dot-sources the AppDeployToolkitMain.ps1 script which contains the logic and functions required to install or uninstall an application.
.PARAMETER DeploymentType
The type of deployment to perform. Default is: Install.
.PARAMETER DeployMode
Specifies whether the installation should be run in Interactive, Silent, or NonInteractive mode. Default is: Interactive. Options: Interactive = Shows dialogs, Silent = No dialogs, NonInteractive = Very silent, i.e. no blocking apps. NonInteractive mode is automatically set if it is detected that the process is not user interactive.
.PARAMETER AllowRebootPassThru
Allows the 3010 return code (requires restart) to be passed back to the parent process (e.g. SCCM) if detected from an installation. If 3010 is passed back to SCCM, a reboot prompt will be triggered.
.PARAMETER TerminalServerMode
Changes to “user install mode” and back to “user execute mode” for installing/uninstalling applications for Remote Destkop Session Hosts/Citrix servers.

Deploy-Application.ps1 -DeployMode ‘Silent’
