Click “jdf connector-setup.exe” in the CD.
When starting Installer, the screen displays the dialog box for language selection. The displayed language
on UI changes according to the language selected (the function is the same).
The language selected here can be switched later by changing the setting on Client UI (the Client PC needs
to be restarted after changing the setting).

In the case of customizing Installation destination of the program or File location of the database, select
“Advanced”.
Items to be set in “Advanced” can be modied on JDF Connector UI, too.
We recommend selecting Typical because the setting customization is not required when installing both
the Server and the Client on the same PC.
