#REDIRECT [[Adobe_Reader]]
 
+
For security reasons you are strongly encouraged to upgrade to version 9.1, or to update to version 8.1.3 if you can't upgrade to the 9.x series: http://www.adobe.com/support/security/bulletins/apsb09-03.html.

+
== Adobe Reader 9.1, MSI installer ==
+
 
+
Adobe has released an MSI, but you can also extract it yourself from the EXE installer (download locations for some languages follow):
+
 
+
* http://ardownload.adobe.com/pub/adobe/reader/win/9.x/9.1/ita/AdbeRdr910_it_IT.exe (italian)
+
* http://ardownload.adobe.com/pub/adobe/reader/win/9.x/9.1/deu/AdbeRdr910_de_DE.exe (german)
+
* http://ardownload.adobe.com/pub/adobe/reader/win/9.x/9.1/fra/AdbeRdr910_fr_FR.exe (french)
+
* http://ardownload.adobe.com/pub/adobe/reader/win/9.x/9.1/enu/AdbeRdr910_en_US.exe (english)
+
 
+
 
+
Extraction will produce in your user profile's "\Local Settings\Application Data\Adobe\Reader 9.1\Setup Files" directory the following files, which have to be copied to the %SOFTWARE% location:
+
 
+
abcpy.ini
+
AcroRead.msi
+
Data1.cab
+
Setup.exe
+
setup.ini
+
 
+
Then you are encouraged to download and install the "Adobe Customization Wizard 9" which allows to create a Microsoft Transform File (.MST) with many customizable parameters (EULA, updates, online services, directories, etc.):
+
 
+
http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=3993
+
 
+
Remember, the following is for the italian version; adapt names, packages, strings and uninstallation GUIDS to your language.
+
 
+
<source lang="xml">
+
<packages>
+
<package id="adobereader91ita" name="Adobe Reader 9.1 ita customized" revision="1" priority="50">
+
  <check type="uninstall" condition="exists" path="Adobe Reader 9.1 - Italiano" />
+
  <install cmd='msiexec /qn /i "%SOFTWARE%\AdobeReader91ita\AcroRead.msi" allusers=1 TRANSFORMS=%SOFTWARE%\AdobeReader91ita\AcroRead.mst'>
+
  <exit code="0" />
+
  <exit code="3010" reboot="false" />
+
  </install>
+
  <upgrade cmd='msiexec /qn /i "%SOFTWARE%\AdobeReader91ita\AcroRead.msi" allusers=1 TRANSFORMS=%SOFTWARE%\AdobeReader91ita\AcroRead.mst' />
+
  <remove  cmd='MsiExec.exe /qn /x{AC76BA86-7AD7-1040-7B44-A91000000001}'>
+
  <exit code="0" />
+
  <exit code="3010" reboot="false" />
+
  </remove>
+
</package>
+
</packages>
+
</source>

If you would like the Adobe Reader 9 without AIR and acrobat.com you can get it from here
+
[http://ardownload.adobe.com/pub/adobe/reader/win/9.x/9.0/enu/AdbeRdr90_en_US_Std.exe].
+
 
+
Or FTP [ftp://ftp.adobe.com/pub/adobe/reader/win/9.x/9.0/enu/] and select the one with the postfix of Std
+
 
+
== Adobe Reader 9, EXE installer ==
+
 
+
Adobe have not released an MSI for this so you have to use the self extracting/installing setup they provide.  You can download it directly from here.
+
 
+

I read on appdeploy about some registry settings which stop all the EULA and other dialogue boxes so I apply these through a logon script.  One line is for the machine key and the others are user specific.
+
 
+
Machine.reg
+
 
+
<source lang="reg">
+
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Adobe\Acrobat Reader\9.0\AdobeViewer
+
"EULA"=dword:00000001
+
"Launched"=dword:00000001
+
</source>
+
 
+
 
+
User.reg
+
<source lang="reg">
+
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Adobe\CommonFiles\Usage\Reader 9
+
"OptIn"=dword:00000000
+
 
+
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Adobe\Acrobat Reader\9.0\AVGeneral
+
"bCheckForUpdatesAtStartup"=dword:00000000
+
 
+
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Adobe\Acrobat Reader\9.0\Originals
+
"bDisplayedSplash"=dword:00000001
+
</source>
+
 
+
This is the package I use.  The first install command is to remove the previous 8.1.2 version so remove that if you don't need it (or just let the installer remove the older 8.1.2 version for you, as it does automatically and silently).
