Version 10
For 9.1.x versions of Adobe Reader, see also [[Adobe Reader 9]].
All the files are downloaded from ftp://ftp.adobe.com/pub/adobe/reader/win/9.x/. The English version is in the directory "en_US", or "enu" for older versions.
Please note that you need permission in order to redistribute Adobe Reader, even inside a corporate network. You can apply for a license here: http://www.adobe.com/products/reader/rdr_distribution1.html?readstep
The .mst file is made with Adobe Customization Wizard 9, available [http://www.adobe.com/go/reader_wizard here]. You will need to follow [http://www.adobe.com/devnet/acrobat/pdfs/deploying_reader9.pdf Adobe's instructions] and recreate the MST each time you apply a new patch. For more info see: http://www.adobe.com/go/reader_wizard_info
== Adobe Reader X ==
You can download version 10 from ftp://ftp.adobe.com/pub/adobe/reader/win/10.x/
Adobe Customization Wizard doesn't work with Adobe Reader X yet. You can still deploy it without a transform but you won't be able to customize the installer. There are command line switches available in section 3 of the [http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/837/cpsid_83709/attachments/Acrobat_Enterprise_Administration.pdf Adobe Enterprise Administration Guide].
