Adobe® Creative Suite® 4 Deployment
Toolkit
The Adobe® Creative Suite® 4 Deployment Toolkit automates the process of configuration of Creative Suite® 4
editions and components installation across an enterprise.
It provides the following features:
•An intuitive workflow that enables you to select products, installation language, and shared and supporting
components
•The option to suppress the end-user license agreement (EULA), registration, and update notifications at the
client machines
•Validation of serial numbers against the specified installer during configuration
•An executable file for ease of deployment
•Capability to delete the installer from the client machine after installation
•Compatibility with Microsoft® Systems Management Server (SMS) and Apple Remote Desktop™ (ARD) to
provide enterprise-wide deployment
The toolkit creates a package that helps deploy the Creative Suite 4 edition or components installer at client machines
using SMS or ARD. A package is a directory that contains the following files:
Deployment files The AdobeUberInstaller.xml and AdobeUberUninstaller.xml files contain the configuration
information (products to install and location to install).
Executable files The AdobeUberInstaller and AdobeUberUninstaller executable files are used to silently install or
uninstall Creative Suite 4 applications. The executable files use the configuration information specified in the
deployment files when they are run.
The following Creative Suite 4 editions and components can be deployed using the toolkit:
•Adobe Creative Suite 4 Master Collection
•Adobe Creative Suite 4 Design Premium
•Adobe Creative Suite 4 Design Standard
•Adobe Creative Suite 4 Web Premium
•Adobe Creative Suite 4 Web Standard
•Flash® CS4 Professional
•Adobe® Premiere® Pro CS4

Create the package
1Open Creative Suite 4 Deployment Toolkit. By default, it is installed at [System Drive]:\Program
Files\Adobe\Adobe CS4 Deployment Toolkit in Windows®. In Mac®, it is installed at /Applications/Adobe CS4
Deployment Toolkit. If you installed it at a different location, open it from that location.
Note: Do not launch Creative Suite 4 edition or components setup while creating a package using
Creative Suite 4 Deployment Toolkit.
2Click Start Configuration, and enter the following information:
•Name for the package. The package name can have characters that are supported in a folder name in the
operating system.
•Description of the package.
•Location of the folder that contains the Creative Suite 4 edition and components installer. You can also select
the installer from a network location (see “Create a single installer” on page 2).
The Create Package Screen
3Enter the serial number. Only volume serial numbers are accepted. The serial number locale is verified against
the installer locale. If the locales match, the locale is displayed in the Installation Language field. If the serial number
is correct, a green check mark appears. If the serial number is incorrect, a red X appears.
4Specify the location where you want to install Creative Suite 4 edition or components at the client machines in
the Installation Location field. You can select from the predefined installation location options.
If you select Set Custom Path, enter the absolute path where you want to install the Creative Suite 4 edition or
components. If you select System Drive, enter the path relative to the system root folder.
The available number of characters allowed for the installation location path depends on the selected installer. The
installation location cannot be a network location, root drive or volume, or mounted image (on Mac).

5Select any of the installation options based on your requirements:
Suppress EULA To disable the user agreement message at the first launch of the installed products.
Suppress Registration To disable the registration option on the client machine.
Suppress Updates To disable the update option and automatic launch of updater on the client machine.
Configure for 64-bit Machine Also To configure the installer (containing 64-bit payloads) for 64-bit systems. This
option is available for Windows only and is visible only if the installer contains 64-bit-specific products. If you select
this option, the Product Options 64-bit screen is displayed. Use this screen to select products for installation on 64-
bit client systems.
Ignore Client Processes To ignore the processes running at the client machine that conflict with the
Creative Suite 4 installation (see “Conflicting processes” on page 10).
Note: If you select this option and conflicting processes are running at the installation time, some products may not
launch or install properly.
Delete installer after install To delete the installer-specific files after installation and uninstallation from the client
machine. The installer is deleted only if it is available locally on the client machine and the installation is successful.
If the installer is located at a network location, it is not deleted.
6Select the products and the shared components that you want to install on the client machine. When you click
the disclosure triangle ( ) before a product name, a list of shared components that the product recommends is
displayed. When you click the disclosure triangle before a shared component, a list of products that recommend the
shared component is displayed. The Total Size, displayed on the top, is calculated based on the selected products and
components. (see “Shared technology installers” on page 16).
7On the Summary screen, the configuration summary and the output location of the package are displayed. Click
Change to change the location of the package.
If video products are included in the package, check the system requirements of the selected products first. If you
want to install products that are supported on Intel®-based Macintosh® only, create a separate package for Intel-based
Macintosh clients.
Additional deployment settings
After creating the package, you can configure manual deployment settings. Apply the settings before installation or
uninstallation and then copy the files to the client machines.
Disable Adobe Product Improvement Program
On Windows, set a registry entry with help of a .reg file:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Adobe\APIP] "enabled"=dword:00000000
On Mac, set a plist value in a shell script:
defaults write /Library/Preferences/com.adobe.headlights.APIP Enabled -int 0
Automatic updates for Acrobat 9
The installer does not contain a method to suppress updates for Acrobat® 9. However, you can write a custom script
to suppress updates for Acrobat 9 by altering the following registry key at the completion of the installation:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Policies\Adobe\Adobe Acrobat\9.0\FeatureLockdown\bUpdater
REG_DWORD 0

Test package on administrator machine
If you want to test the package on a local system before beginning enterprise-wide deployment, run one of the
following commands from the command prompt:
•To install Creative Suite 4 edition and components on Windows:
AdobeUberInstaller.exe
•To uninstall Creative Suite 4 edition and components on Windows:
AdobeUberUninstaller.exe
•To install Creative Suite 4 edition and components on Mac:

Deploy Creative Suite 4 using Apple Remote Desktop
You can copy the package to each client machine using ARD and access the Creative Suite 4 installer locally or
through a network shared location. Note the following restrictions:
•The permissions on the network shared location must allow a root process on the client to read.
•The network shared location must support the Apple® Filing Protocol (AFP). The Server Message Block protocol
(SMB) or Network File System protocol (NFS) does not work.
•If a product has multiple disc images, create a single installer (see “Create a single installer” on page 2).
•If the product installer is available as a disc image, extract it. For local installation or uninstallation, copy the
installer to the client machine. Ensure that the installer location specified in InstallerLocation tag of the AdobeU-
berInstaller.xml/AdobeUberUninstaller.xml file is same as actual installer location at the client machine.
•If you change the location of the installer (at the client machine), update the location of the installer in the Install-
erLocation tag in the deployment files (AdobeUberInstaller.xml and AdobeUberUninstaller.xml).
•For network installation, copy the Creative Suite 4 installer to any network shared location.
Before deploying, ensure that ARD is enabled on all the client machines. You can use the Apple’s Upgrade Client
software feature to upgrade all targeted clients. Verify that the package created using the Creative Suite 4 Deployment
Toolkit exists and the path of the Creative Suite 4 installer is accessible to the client machines (in the case of network
installation).
Copy the package and Creative Suite 4 installer using ARD
1Open ARD.
2Select a Computer list, and verify the target clients in the Detailed view.
3Click Copy.
