Do not enter your Creative Cloud Enterprise License key in to the configuration wizard if already specified in the Create Package workflow. From the File menu in the Customization Wizard, select Open Package. Browse to the package created in step 2, and open the Acrobat Pro .msi (Windows) or .pkg (macOS) file in the following location:\Acrobat\Build\Setup\APRO20.0\Adobe Acrobat\ In the Personalization Options section, select the required options. If you have more than one Acrobat Pro serial number, you can use the serial number for Creative Cloud for enterprise or Acrobat Pro.

For Acrobat users. Create customized package Use the Customization Wizard to further customize your package, using the one of the following workflows (based on end user machine OS). To customize Acrobat from your downloaded package, you need the latest version of the Customization Wizard, and the downloaded Acrobat Pro .msi file. Download the Customization Wizard. Create a package using the create package workflows in Admin Console Launch the Customization Wizard. Do not enter your Creative Cloud Enterprise License key in to the configuration wizard if already specified in the Create Package workflow.

If you have more than one Acrobat Pro serial number, you can use the serial number for Creative Cloud for enterprise or Acrobat Pro. The serial number field is only used for serialized deployments where the machine is licensed. If you use the Customization Wizard for creating a custom package via the Adobe Admin Console for named users, leave the serial field blank. Save the package. Saving the package generates a "transformations" file (with the extension .mst) in the Acrobat directory. This file is used when installing Acrobat via the package. To customize Acrobat from your downloaded package, you need the latest version of the Customization Wizard, and the downloaded .pkg file. Go to the terminal and expand the package file (downloaded from the Admin Console) using the following command: "pkgutil --expand "path of package" "". Copy the APRO19.0.dmg file out from the structure of package that you expanded in steps above ,and place it on your desktop. Double-click and mount the APRO19.0.dmg file. Open the mount volume. Create a folder on your desktop AcrobatVolume, and copy the contents of mount volume (from step 3 above) to that folder. Next, use Customization Wizard on the Acrobat Installer.pkg in the AcrobatVolume folder structure. Create a customized installer with the name Acrobat Installer.pkg. Replace the customized installer package created in Step 6, above to the AcrobatVolume folder. Now we have “AcrobatVolume” folder with dmg contents AND Customized Acrobat installer. Next, run the following command line to use AcrobatVolume folder to the create the APRO20.0.dmg: hdiutil create -volname "Acrobat" -srcfolder "/Users/labuser/Desktop/AcrobatVolume" -ov -format UDZO APRO20.0.dmg Replace labuser with current user username in above command. Replace newly created APRO20.0.dmg in the package file folder expanded in step 1 above. Run the following pkgutil command to flatten the expanded file contents: "pkgutil --flatten "dir of expanded package" "package path for new package" Deploy the customized package Windows: Deploy the modified installer with the Customization Wizard to your clients as described in the Customization Wizard documentation. macOS: Deploy the package created with the Customization Wizard output. Proceed to deploy the package created MSI (Windows) or PKG (macOS) file to the client. For a Windows package, once the MST file (also

Proceed to deploy the package created MSI (Windows) or PKG (macOS) file to the client. For a Windows package, once the MST file (also known as the transformations file) is saved to the Acrobat subdirectory within the package, you can begin to deploy the software to the target systems. It is possible to install Acrobat using its own MSI (Windows) or PKG (macOS) file, but it does not install

You can do this via the Wizard or APTEE.Note30-day grace for online activation is not available in Acrobat Classic 2020. For permanent offline machines, admins should grant an offline exception via the Customization Wizard or APTEE.Serializing an imaged OS¶To image a machine with Acrobat, first generate a prov.xml file on an online machine and then create a permanent offline exception that is not machine specific. Note the following:This method can only be used with volume licenses.Acrobat need not be installed to run this command.The machine on which this command is run must be online.It is highly recommended to suppress registration.Steps:Connect to the internet.Download the latest Adobe Provisioning Toolkit Enterprise Edition.Open an elevated prompt (run as administrator).Generate a prov.xml file on any machine connected to the internet using the following APTEE tool command line with the following options:serial: The serial numberregsuppress=ss: Optional; suppresses registrationeulasuppress: Optional; suppresses the EULA promptlocales: Optional; specify from the limited list of locales in the formal xx_XX or ALLprovfile: Optional; path of the folder where prov.xml is created.

Doing so writes the serial number information to the abcpy.ini file. This file needs to be placed in the same directory as the MSI used at installation time.Serializing via an .msi¶Installations that use MSI files sometimes require that the Abcpy.ini file contain the serial number information for the application. If you have not used the Wizard, set this up manually as follows:Open Abcpy.ini in a text editor.Find ISX_SERIALNUMBER.Add the serial number.Save and close the file.Verify abcpy.ini is located in the same directory as the MSI prior to installation.;***************************************************************;OEM Installation Options;***************************************************************[OEM Install]ISX_SERIALNUMBER=USERNAME=COMPANYNAME=INSTALLDIR=Serializing an .exe (bootstrapper)¶Deployments that use EXE files require that the Setup.ini file contain the serial number information for the application. For example, during a bootstrapper Setup.exe deployment, the EXE file reads Setup.ini to get the needed information. You can set this up manually as follows:Open Setup.ini in a text editor.Find ISX_SERIALNUMBER.Add the serial number.Save and close the file.Verify Setup.exe located in the same directory as the EXE prior to installation.Serializing via the command line¶The license key can be entered
