Introduction
This guide provides instructions for installing the software associated with Scan to PC Desktop
in a network environment.
Targeted users are administrators, Information Technology specialists or programmers who set
up or perform network installations. It assumes the reader is familiar with Microsoft Windows
2000/2003 Server with Active Directory or with Microsoft Systems Management Server (SMS),
in addition to program package setup, advertising and distribution.
Network installation enables a network administrator to manage and distribute software
applications without the need to visit each client system.
First administrative images of the applications (the components of Scan to PC Desktop) should
be created on the server. Then the server should be configured to automatically "push" the
applications onto the client machines.

Scan to PC Desktop software components
Scan to PC Desktop is delivered in two CD-ROM variants: Special Edition and Professional
Edition.
These two editions of Scan to PC Desktop comprise different software products from ScanSoft.
All the installers of these software components support MSI (Windows Installer-based)
distribution.
Software components for Special Edition CD-ROM:
Software component
1PaperPort 10.0 SE
2OmniPage SE 3.0
3Image Retriever 5.2 SE
Software components for Professional Edition CD-ROM:
Software component
1PaperPort Professional 10.0
2OmniPage Pro 14.0 Office
3Image Retriever 5.2 Pro
4PDF Create! 2.0
5PDF Converter 1.3
Any combination of the products on the CD-ROMs can be installed under the following
limitations:
1.) To install Image Retriever, you must install PaperPort first.
2.) To ensure full functionality of PaperPort Pro, PDF Create! 2.0 must also be installed.
You can create as many administrative images on a network location as many software
components Scan to PC Desktop includes.

Windows 2000/2003 Server with Active Directory Support
Active Directory is a feature of Windows 2000 Advanced Server and Windows 2003 Server.
Group Policy, a component of Active Directory, includes a Software Installation snap-in that
enables an administrator to create a network installation. The administrator can use this feature
to install software to Windows 2000 and Windows XP clients only. The snap-in cannot be used
to install software to clients with older versions of the Windows operating system.
In general, Active Directory supports three main installation scenarios: Publish to Users,Assign
to Users, and Assign to Computers. The software components of Scan to PC Desktop support the
Assign to Computers scenario only. This will successfully install the software on next system
reboot.
Installation can be delayed on Windows XP clients when the administrator enables logon
optimization for group policy: for this type of installation, an entry can be viewed in the event
log after the first reboot. The installation takes place silently, and the software is installed for all
users of the given computer.
The screenshot above illustrates this case.

Systems Management Server Support
Systems Management Server (SMS) provides a mechanism for pushing application installations
out from the server to client systems. SMS supports the following versions of Windows:
Windows 95, 98, Me, NT 4.0, 2000, and XP when installing products that use Windows Installer
(MSI) technology. SMS requires a client application to be installed on all client machines. The
software components of Scan to PC Desktop were tested using SMS version 2.0 with Service
Pack 4.
SMS enables you to deploy a setup package per User or per System. The software components
have been verified to work in the per System configuration only. The per System installation of
the components can be configured to run either unattended or attended. Instructions for
controlling this process are provided below.
All the software components of Scan to PC Desktop use Windows Installer Technology. The
official Microsoft document describing the usage of Windows Installer-based applications with
SMS (entitled "Deploying Windows Installer Setup Packages with Systems Management Server
2.0"). The document, is available at
http://www.microsoft.com/smserver/techinfo/deployment/20/

Creating administrative images
This section describes how to create administrative images of the software components of Scan
to PC Desktop onto the network.
Such an administrative installation will extract the necessary files into a network location
specified during the installation. This location is also known as a Software Distribution Point.
An administrative installation will not install any program files.
Administrators can run an administrative installation from the command line by using the /a
command line option. Users in a workgroup who have access to this administrative image can
then install the product from this source.
SETUP /a
or MSIEXEC /a <MSI-filename>
The following options can be used together with the SETUP executable:
Setup option Description
/a Administrative installation option. This instructs SETUP.exe to perform an
administrative installation instead of a normal installation.
/v Precedes the list of arguments or properties that are passed to the Windows
Installer.
/L
(followed by the Windows
Language Code)
If applicable, specifies the setup language to use for installation.
The following language codes are supported:
1031=German
1033=English
1034=Spanish
1036=French
1040=Italian
1043=Dutch
Creating administrative images of the components
To create an administrative image on the network for any application
1. Use the below tables to locate the installer of the application on the CD-ROM.
2. Launch SETUP.exe or MSIEXEC with appropriate command line options including the
administrative installation option:
SETUP /a
or MSIEXEC /a "ScanSoft PaperPort 10.0.msi"
or e.g. for German setup language:
SETUP /a /L1031

3. If applicable, select a language for the administrative installation (not necessary if setup language
was specified in the command line).
4. During installation, specify a target network location for the administrative image to be
created.
5. Share this location (Software Distribution Point).
Software components and their installer locations for the Special Edition:
Software component Installer location on the CD-ROM Command

Note
Do not perform an administrative installation for PDF Create! 2.0. Instead, simply copy its
installer onto the target network location.

Installation order
Before starting to install any component of Scan to PC Desktop, please ensure that
InstallShield's Installscript engine be installed on the target computer.
You can find the Installscript engine installer (ISSCRIPT8.msi) in the folder of each component
(e.g. in PP10PRO\PaperPort) on the CD-ROM.
Once the Installscript engine is installed, the different components can be installed in any
combination. Note that the installation of PaperPort must precede that of Image Retriever. Please
note also that during the installation of PaperPort Pro, PDF Create! 2.0 must also be installed.
