2 INTRODUCTION
2.1 Purpose
This technical note documents the installation options for Corel PDF Fusion. It is intended to
assist system administrators in creating images from which the product may be installed to a
users workstation, or carry out an unattended installation (known as a silent installation),
while specifying custom settings such as installation folder and serial number.
2.2 Full installer
The full installer (e.g CorelPDFFusionInstaller_x64.exe) can be run to install Corel PDF Fusion
with a user interface (UI) for attended installation, or without for an unattended (or silent)
installation. It also supports creating an admin image. Instructions for this are given later.
2.2.1 Command line
The installer is designed to work with Windows Installer 4.5 or later. It supports the usual
setup.exe options for installation. For example:
setup.exe [options] [options]
where setup.exe is the name of the MSI installer, e.g. CorelPDFFusionInstaller_x86.exe and
[options] are the command line options for the installer.
For example, CorelPDFFusionInstaller_x86.exe /S /V/QN:
/S installs the package in silent mode. This will hide the initialisation dialog and
progress bar. Note that the initialisation dialog is displayed before the installation
wizard dialogs.
/V passes parameters immediately following to the embedded MSI, in this case /QN , the
switch to perform a quiet (silent) installation with no UI displayed.
NOTE: When using the MSI installer in silent mode no warnings are displayed with regard to
low disk space. Therefore, you must ensure that the disk space requirements are met before
running the installer.
2.2.2 Installing at a user defined location: INSTALLDIR
The default location for installation is the path Corel\Corel PDF Fusion under the Program Files
folder. To install at a custom location use:
CorelPDFFusionInstaller_x64.exe /V"INSTALLDIR=<valid_path>"
INSTALLDIR is a property that defines a user defined location. The quotes are needed around the
parameters to be passed to the MSI because there are spaces separating them.
NOTE: If there are spaces in the path they must be enclosed in quotes which in turn must be
escaped with a \ character.
For example (also shows silent installation):
CorelPDFFusionInstaller_x64.exe /S /V"/QN INSTALLDIR=\"C:\Program Files\ABC\""
2.2.3 Installing with a pre-defined serial number: SERIALNUMBER
To install with a serial number use a command such as:
CorelPDFFusionInstaller_x64.exe /S /V"/QN SERIALNUMBER=<valid serial number>"
SERIALNUMBER is a property that defines the serial number which is in the form xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-
xxxx, e.g. SERIALNUMBER=YK93-DY87-V3LN-K3UJ.
NOTE: The serial number specified by SERIALNUMBER must be valid. If it is not, a silent
installation will continue but the Corel PDF Fusion will start up in trial mode, as if no serial
number had been entered. The validation failure is logged by the Windows installer.
2.2.4 Microsoft Office Add-Ins
Corel PDF Fusion installs Add-Ins to Microsoft Office to provide one-button creation of PDF files
from Word, Excel and PowerPoint. There are different versions for Office 2003, 2007 and 2010;
the installer detects which version of Office is installed and runs the appropriate installer.
When run in silent mode, the Add-Ins are NOT installed. If they are needed for workstation
deployment, the correct installer must be run separately. The Add-In installers are
automatically extracted to a folder in the admin image, as follows:
<path to admin image>\program files\Corel\Corel PDF Fusion\Addins
The installers themselves are MSI files:
Version of MS Office Installer filename
Office 2003 CorelOffice2003AddinsSetup.msi
Office 2007 CorelOffice2007AddinsSetup.msi
Office 2010, 32-bit CorelOffice2010AddinsSetup.msi
Office 2010, 64-bit CorelOffice2010AddinsX64.msi

Like other MSI files, they can be run silently with the /QN switch. To specify an installation
folder, use the TARGETDIR property. For example:
CorelOffice2010AddinsSetup.msi /QN TARGETDIR="C:\Program Files\CorelOfficeAddins"
The default installation folder if none is specified is:
[system drive]\[program files]\Corel\Corel PDF Fusion\OfficeAddin\
where [system drive] is a drive letter such as C: and [program files] is the program files folder,
typically C:\Program Files or C:\Program Files (x86).
The Add-Ins have several pre-requisites that are detailed in the Pre-requisites section below.
2.2.5 Restart behaviour
Most installations will complete without the need for a system restart. There is one situation
where a restart is needed: when the Windows Installer must be updated. As noted above,
Windows Installer 4.5 or later is required. If an earlier version is detected (an unpatched
version of Windows XP SP3 has Windows Installer 3.01, for example) the installer will install
Windows Installer 4.5 and an update to it, after which a restart is required.
To avoid the possibility of a restart, we recommend that the Windows Installer is updated
before the Corel PDF Fusion installation.
You can determine which version of the .NET framework is installed by referring to this
Microsoft KnowledgeBase (KB) article: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-
us/kb/kbarticle.aspx?id=318785.
You can determine which version of the Windows Installer by typing MSIEXEC /? into a
Run prompt or command window.
See the Pre-requisites section below for further details.
2.2.5.1 Silent install
Another way to avoid a restart is to use the silent install option (/S). When run this way, the
installer does not require the update to Windows Installer 4.5. As noted earlier, the silent install
option does not install the Office Add-Ins. The Add-In installer can be run separately if required.
2.3 Administrative Installation
The Windows Installer can perform an administrative installation of Corel PDF Fusion to a
network for use by a workgroup. An administrative installation installs a source image of the
application onto the network that is similar to a source image on a CD-ROM. Users in a
workgroup who have access to this administrative image can then install the product from this
source. A user must first install the product from the network to run the application.
More on this at http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/aa367541%28v=vs.85%29.aspx
2.3.1 Creating an admin image (64-bit)
1. Map a network drive, if necessary.
2. From a Run command or using a command window, install using /A or /admin, e.g.
CorelPDFFusionInstaller_x64.exe /A
3. Specify the network location with a drive letter or UNC path:

4. Complete the image by copying the full installer to the same location
The result in the target folder should look like this:

The image is now ready for installation by executing Corel PDF Fusion.msi from the network
location.
2.3.2 Creating an admin image (32-bit)
1. Map a network drive, if necessary.
2. From Run command or using a command window, install using /A or /admin, e.g.
CorelPDFFusionInstaller_x86.exe /A
3. Specify the network location with a drive letter or UNC path:

4. Complete the image by copying the full installer to the same location
The result in the target folder should look like this:

The image is now ready for installation by executing Corel PDF Fusion.msi from the network
location.
2.3.3 Creating the admin image at a specific location: TARGETDIR
To specify the target folder for the admin image use:
CorelPDFFusionInstaller_x64.exe /S /A /V"/QN TARGETDIR=<valid_path>"
TARGETDIR is a property that specifies the path to the folder where the installation files should be
copied.
NOTE: If there are spaces in the path they must be enclosed in quotes which in turn must be
escaped with a \ character.
For example:
CorelPDFFusionInstaller_x64.exe /S /A /V"/QN TARGETDIR=\"Z:\Network Folder\x64\""
To complete the image, do not forget to copy the full installer to the same location, e.g.
copy CorelPDFFusionInstaller_x64.exe "Z:\Network Folder\x64"
2.3.4 Notes on administrative installation
1. It is necessary to add the full installer to the admin image so that it can be called by
Corel PDF Fusion.msi to install any pre-requisites that may be needed.
2. The drive and path specified by TARGETDIR must exist at the time the installer is run,
otherwise an error will occur and the installer will exit. (This is logged by the Windows
installer, such as Error 1327.Invalid Drive)
3. If a serial number is supplied when creating the admin image, it will be ignored. If a
serial number is to be applied during subsequent installation from the admin image MSI
the command line should include the serial number, for example:
"Z:\Corel PDF Fusion.msi" SERIALNUMBER=YK93-DY87-V3LN-K3UJ /QN
2.4 Pre-requisites
If there is a requirement to install any of the pre-requisites separately, they can be extracted
from the full installer during the admin installation by specifying a path immediately after the
/A switch, for example:
CorelPDFFusionInstaller_x64.exe /A"Z:\Network Folder\x64"
The pre-requisite installers are found in the folders listed below. A description of each follows.

2.5 Example
In the following user scenario, the administrator has already mapped a network folder to store
the admin image. Some of the target workstations are x86 and are running Office 2007, while
others are x64 and are running Office 2010 (x86). Some of the workstations are running
Windows XP SP3, but have .NET installed and all automatic updates. The administrator wants to
use silent install for the workstation installations. He has a serial number.
Item Value
Location of full installers C:\users\admin\desktop\corelinstallers
Location for admin images Z:\
Installation folder on an x86 workstation D:\Program Files\CorelPDFSoftware
Location for program on an x64 workstation D:\Program Files (x86)\CorelPDFSoftware
Serial number YK93-DY87-V3LN-K3UJ

To create admin images for each type of workstation install, he first opens an administrative
command window and enters these commands to create the admin images:
cd \users\admin\desktop\corelinstallers
md Z:\x86
CorelPDFFusionInstaller_x86.exe /S /A /V"/QN TARGETDIR=Z:\x86"
copy CorelPDFFusionInstaller_x86.exe Z:\x86
md Z:\x64
CorelPDFFusionInstaller_x64.exe /S /A /V"/QN TARGETDIR=Z:\x64"
copy CorelPDFFusionInstaller_x64.exe Z:\x64
To install the application on an x86 workstation, he executes the following command:
"Z:\x86\Corel PDF Fusion.msi" INSTALLDIR="D:\Program Files\CorelPDFSoftware"
SERIALNUMBER=YK93-DY87-V3LN-K3UJ /QN
As he used silent installation for the main application, he also runs the Office Add-In installer:
"Z:\x86\program files\Corel\Corel PDF Fusion\Addins\CorelOffice2007AddinsSetup.msi"
TARGETDIR="D:\Program Files\CorelPDFSoftware\OfficeAddin" /QN
To install the application on an x64 workstation, he executes the following two commands:
"Z:\x64\Corel PDF Fusion.msi" INSTALLDIR="D:\Program Files\CorelPDFSoftware"
SERIALNUMBER=YK93-DY87-V3LN-K3UJ /QN
"Z:\x64\program files\Corel\Corel PDF Fusion\Addins\CorelOffice2010AddinsSetup.msi"
TARGETDIR="D:\Program Files\CorelPDFSoftware\OfficeAddin" /QN
2.6 Logging options
The installer is enabled for MSI logging. The logs can be requested to be created at a desired
location using the /l switch with various modifiers:
/l[i|w|e|a|r|u|c|m|o|p|v|x|+|!|*] <LogFile>
Modifier Purpose
i Status messages
w Nonfatal warnings
e All error messages
a Start up of actions
r Action-specific records
u User requests
c Initial UI parameters
m Out-of-memory or fatal exit information
o Out-of-disk-space messages
p Terminal properties
v Verbose output
x Extra debugging information
+ Append to existing log file
! Flush each line to the log
* Log all information, except for v and x options
/log <LogFile> Equivalent of /l* <LogFile>

This is an MSI switch; when used with the full installer, include it as a /V parameter, e.g.
CorelPDFFusionInstaller_x64.exe /V"/log MyLog.log"
