Note that all switches are optional except for DIR=.
Also note that failure to ensure that special switch characters such as quote marks (") and "/" are included in your command line or batch file, and are in the correct positions, will result in the failure of the command to behave as expected.
Switch |
Description |
---|---|
VERYSILENT |
Designates that the installation once started should be silent and require no user interaction. |
SILENT |
Designates that the install should only request essential information from the user once started. |
NORESTART |
Specify that no reboot occur when installation is complete. PDF-XChange does require a reboot before updates will take effect. |
DIR= |
Required. The full path to install all required files to, created if not already available, i.e.: /DIR="C:\Program Files\Tracker Software\PDF-XChange 5\" Note that the path details must begin and end with double quotation marks ("). |
GROUP= |
the Windows 'Start Menu' folder in which to locate the Menu options provided when installing PDF-XChange - this will always be a 'Child' menu option of the default 'Programs Files' menu and this cannot be changed, i.e.: /GROUP="Tracker Software\PDF-XChange 5" Note that the path details must begin and end with double quotation marks ("). |
COMPONENTS= |
If this switch is specified only those components actually listed will be installed, otherwise all components are installed. The available components are: pdfSaver (Always Required) PDF-XChange driver (Always Required) Help Languagess (note: ‘ss’ is required!) Autounload
For example, this will install all components except the User Interface local language files. /COMPONENTS="pdfSaver,PDF-XChange driver, Help" |
NOICONS |
If this option is specified, no shortcuts to PDF-XChange resources such as help files etc will be added to the Windows 'Start' Button Programs listing fro the end user client installation. |
PName |
Sets the PDF-XChange printer name as required - please note that the first 12 characters are reserved - including the space after "PDF-XChange " the default option without this entry is currently "PDF-XChange Printer 2012', i.e. : /PName:"PDF-XChange 5" Also the revised Printer name must not end with a space - must be an Alpha/Numeric character. |
PDEFAULT= |
Sets PDF-XChange to be the system default Printer - the default option without this entry is that PDF-XChange will not be the default printer. |
AutoUnload:nn |
If this option is specified, after the specified timeout (nn, in minutes) the pdfSaver3 module of the PDF-XChange driver will unload. This ensures that the minimum necessary memory is in use at any time - this is only necessary where multiple users may be using PDF-XChange on a single PC, Server or Citirx/WTS system at a given time as the resources used are minimal - but could be collectively quite large in such a system as described above. |
Lang |
Sets a language as the default for the user interface for all of the installed programs and the print driver. Use format /LANG=xx where xx may be en (English), nl (Dutch), fr (French), gr (German), sp (Spanish), ko (Korean), ch (Chinese), jp (Japanese), fi (Finnish) |
DRVwoPRN |
Installs the driver but with a visible “printer” |
