Deployment Guide
Introduction 1
Stage 1: Preparing for deployment
As used in this guide, the
term “network” signifies
two or more computers
that are connected to each
other for the purpose of
exchanging information.
Workstations are the
computers from which
the average user works,
and servers are the computers
that manage the shared
resources of the network.
To more easily manage
the access rights of
workstation users, you
may want to use Group Policy
Objects (GPOs, or “system
policies”). See “Managing
permissions with Group Policy
Objects” on page 5.
To deploy the software to your network as smoothly as possible,
you can prepare by doing the following:
• Check the system requirements for the software.
• Prepare the server.
• Prepare the workstations.
For details, see below.
Checking the software requirements
To begin, make sure that your server and workstations are eligible
for the software. Consult the following:
• Readme file for the software (if available)
• product-information page on the Corel website (
• any other special instructions for the software
Preparing the server
• Make sure that the server meets the minimum system
requirements for the software, and that it has enough free disk
space for the installation.
• Make sure that the operating system on the server has been
updated with the latest service packs and security patches.
• Make sure that you have the proper permissions for creating a
software image on the server. You must be either a local
administrator or an administrator for the domain that you are
managing, and you must have read/write access to the server
location.
www.corel.com)
Preparing the workstations
• Make sure that the workstations meet the minimum system
requirements for the software, and that they have enough free
disk space for the installation.
• Make sure that the operating systems on the workstations have
been updated with the latest service packs and security patches.
• Make sure that anyone who will be installing the software from
the server image has the proper permissions to do so. To install
the software on a workstation, you must be either a local
administrator or an administrator for the domain that you are
managing, and you must have read access to the server location.
Deployment Guide
Stage 1: Preparing for deployment 2
Stage 2: Creating the server image
A server image, also called
an “administrator image”
or simply an “image,” is a
set of uncompressed application
files on the server that is created
from a set of compressed files on
the installation disc.
A command line is a textual
command that lets you
specify desired settings.
To mount an ISO file,
you might require third-
party software that
helps you create a virtual drive.
Alternatively, you can burn the
ISO file to a CD/DVD and
access the files from the disc.
After preparing for deployment, you’re ready to create a server
image of the software, from which you can install the software to
the workstations. (If you want to support multiple installation
types, you can even create multiple server images: one for each
desired configuration.)

Creating a server image
To create a server image, you run a command line that initializes
the software setup and specifies your desired installation settings.
To run a command line
1 Open the Run dialog box (shortcut key: Windows Logo + R).
2 Type the command line in the Open box, and then click OK.
To create a server image
1 Do one of the following:
• If you have an installation disc, insert the disc into the CD/DVD
drive.
• If you downloaded an ISO file, mount the ISO to a directory or
extract the files from the ISO image to a directory on your
server by using a utility such as WinZip® (available from
www.winzip.com).
If the AutoRun screen opens, click Exit.
2 Run the following command line, where X: is the directory
where the disc, ISO, or extracted files are located.
X:\Setup.exe /a
3
Type your user name and serial number (with or without hyphens) in the boxes provided, and then click Next.
The customer information that you provide is passed on to the
workstations when the software is deployed to the network. By
default, users can change the user name but not the serial
number.
4 Specify a network location for the server image. To change the
default location, type a valid server path in the Network location
box, or click Browse to browse to a valid network location.
Deployment Guide
Stage 2: Creating the server image 3
5 If you want to allow workstations to detect and download
Proceed with extreme
caution when using the
/q switch to create a
server image.
To change the location of
a server image, you must
create a new image at the
new location. You cannot copy
an image from one location to
another.
product updates, enable the Product updates check box.
6 Click Install to begin copying the files to the server.
If you click Cancel, you are prompted to confirm that you want
to cancel creating the server image. Cancelling “rolls back” the
setup and undoes most of the changes made; however, some
manual clean-up may be required.
7 Click Finish.
You can also

log
Use the following command line (where X: is the
directory where the disc, ISO, or extracted files are
located; image_location is the desired location of
the server image; and serial_number is the assigned
serial number for the product):
X:\Setup.exe
TARGETDIR="image_location"
SERIALNUMBER="serial_number" /q /a
The /q switch is used to restrict the amount of the
user interface that appears during installation. For a
list of switch parameters, see page 7.
Use the following command line (where
is the location and filename of the log file):
X:\Setup.exe /l "log_file" /a
For a list of the parameters that are available for
the
/l switch, see page 8.
log_file
Finalizing the server image
Before deploying from the server image, you may want to take the
following steps.
Check for software updates
Check for software updates, and apply them to the image as
necessary. This way, you can avoid having to deploy the software
twice. For details, see page 16.
Test the image
Test the image with a small subset of workstations before rolling it
out to your entire organization.
Deployment Guide
Stage 2: Creating the server image 4
Stage 3: Installing the software
Looking for command-
line switches and public
properties? See “Pushing
the software” on page 6.
Pulling the software
involves having the
workstation users
themselves execute the
software installation and
perhaps even choose their own
installation options.
Group Policy Objects
(sometimes called
“system policies”) reside
in a central location on a
Windows-based network and
define how each workstation is
configured.
You can install the software on the workstations in two main ways:
• by having the users themselves install (or “pull”) the software
from the server image to their workstations
• by using a command line to install (or “push”) the software from
the server image to the workstations on the users’ behalf
Contents

Pushing the software. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 6
Pulling the software
Workstation users themselves can install (or “pull”) the software by
using one of the following methods:
• browsing to the location of the server image, double-clicking
Setup.exe, and following the instructions in the setup. This is the
most common method for pulling the software.
• running a command line that installs the software from the
setup on the server image. Typically, this method is reserved for
push-installation scenarios (see page 6).
Managing permissions with Group Policy Objects
To install the software, workstation users require administratorlevel privileges. To assign such privileges, Windows-based networks
use Group Policy Objects (or “GPOs”): items stored in a central
network location and used to automatically update the registry
settings on each workstation when its user logs in to the network.
If you want to give users administrator-level access rights (either
temporarily or permanently), you may need to configure the GPOs
for your network by using a Group Policy Editor.
For general help with GPOs, please refer to the Software
Development Kit (SDK) for Group Policy.
To access the Group Policy Editor for Windows
1 Open the Run dialog box (shortcut key: Windows Logo + R).
2 Type gpedit.msc in the Open box, and then click OK.
Deployment Guide
Stage 3: Installing the software 5
To let workstation users install software
Pushing the software
forces installation on the
workstations without
requiring any user interaction.
Typically, the user interface for
the setup is suppressed.
Command-line switches
typically control the
behavior of the software
setup, while public properties
typically pre-configure the
installed software.
Enable the following system policies for workstation users:
• Computer Configuration\Administrative Templates\
Windows Components\Windows Installer\
Always install with elevated privileges
• Computer Configuration\Administrative Templates\
Windows Components\Windows Installer\
Enable user control over installs
• User Configuration\Administrative Templates\
Windows Components\Windows Installer\
Always install with elevated privileges
To let limited-access users patch software
Enable the following system policy for workstation users:
• Computer Configuration\Administrative Templates\
Windows Components\Windows Installer\
Enable user to patch elevated products
Pushing the software
If you prefer to install the software on behalf of the workstation
users, you can “push” the software from the server image to the
workstations. To do this, you use a command line in conjunction
with one of the following:
• a batch file — a text file that can be scripted to run commands
automatically. For help, please visit the Microsoft website.
• a Group Policy Object — an item, stored in a central network
location, that defines how the workstations are configured. For
help, please refer to your Software Development Kit (SDK) for
Group Policy.
• a push technology — a third-party tool specially designed for
installing software automatically. For help, please visit the
manufacturer’s website.
As previously stated, all three of these methods involve softwareinstallation command lines, which typically include the following:
• the setup file on the server image
• switches that control the setup behavior
• public properties that pre-configure the installed software

Stage 3: Installing the software 6
Specifying the setup file
Separate switches from
other command-line
elements, including other
switches, with spaces.
Do not type a space
between a switch and its
parameters or between
the parameters in one switch,
unless otherwise noted.
For a list of all switches for
the Microsoft Windows
Installer technology, please
see the Microsoft website.
After installation with the
/q switch, it is normal for
the licensing agreement to
appear the first time that users
run the program on their
workstations.
The main item to specify in your command line is the executable
file that you want to use to install the software.
This file is Setup.exe, the executable file for the software setup.
Setup.exe is located on the server image, at the installation path
that you chose when you created the server image.
The basic syntax for a Setup.exe command line is as follows:
\\server\path\Setup.exe
If your server-image path contains spaces, you must place
quotation marks around the entire Setup.exe component:
"\\server\path with spaces\Setup.exe"
Using switches
To customize the behavior of the software setup, you can use a
variety of command-line switches.
Basic syntax
The syntax for a switch consists of a forward slash ( / ) immediately
followed by a character or string — for example,
/q or /quiet.
Be sure to separate switches from other command-line elements,
including other switches, with spaces.
Parameters
Some switches have parameters, which let you adjust the settings
for the switch. In fact, some switches let you use multiple
parameters.
To use a parameter, simply type the parameter immediately after
the switch (that is, without a space), unless otherwise noted. If you
do not specify any parameters, the switch uses its default settings.

during the setup).
Parameters
You can specify one of the following parameters for the /q switch.
Parameter Effect
n
The user does not see the user interface during installation.
Errors are recorded in a log file (see page 8). This is the
default parameter.
b
The user sees only a progress bar and a Cancel button. If
the user pushes the Cancel button, the installation is rolled
back.
r
The user sees a progress bar, along with a page containing
information about the installation. The user can choose to
cancel the installation.
f
The user sees the full user interface.
Syntax
Here’s the command-line syntax:
\\server\path\Setup.exe /q
Creating a log file with /l
Use the
/l switch if you want to log general information about the
installation to a log file with the specified path and filename.
Parameters
You can specify one or more of the following parameters for the /l
switch.

Location and filename of log file
The /l switch can take an additional parameter: the location and
filename of the log file. Type
/l followed by a space, followed by
an opening quotation mark, the path to the log file, the filename
of the log file, and a closing quotation mark. Here’s the commandline syntax (where
log_file is the location and filename of the log
file):
\\server\path\Setup.exe /l "log_file"
Syntax
The following sample command line uses the default parameters of
the
/l switch to log information in the file C:\install.txt during
installation:
\\server\path\Setup.exe /l "C:\install.txt"
Using the /q switch with /l
You can use the /q and /l switches together. The following sample
command line uses
/q to suppress the user interface during
installation and record errors in the specified log file:
\\server\path\Setup.exe /q /l "C:\Logs\My_Log.txt"
Controlling reboots
You can force a reboot after installation by using the
forcerestart
switch in your command line. Here’s the command-
/
line syntax:
\\server\path\Setup.exe /forcerestart

You can also suppress a reboot after installation by using the
Additional information
on the use of public
properties is available
online from the MSDN
developer program.
Be sure to use spaces to
separate public
properties from other
command-line elements
(including other public
properties).

around any value that
contains spaces to
ensure it is “read” as a single
unit.

/norestart switch. Here’s the command-line syntax:
\\server\path\Setup.exe /norestart
Using public properties
To customize the installed software, you can use a variety of public
properties in your command line.
Basic syntax
Public properties are case-sensitive; they must be typed in capital
letters, and they cannot contain spaces.
To use a public property in a command line, you must type the
name of the public property in capital letters, followed directly by
an equals sign ( = ), followed directly by the desired value.
PROPERTY=value
Values are also case-sensitive, but they can contain both uppercase
and lowercase letters. A value can be a text string (such as a feature
name) or a number. If a value contains spaces, you must enclose it
in quotation marks to ensure that it is “read” as a single unit.

Here’s the syntax for installing the 64-bit version only:
\\server\path\Setup.exe INSTALLX86=0 INSTALLX64=1
Installing language modules for the software
You can use the
INSTLANG public property to install language
modules for the software. A language module typically includes
both the user-interface and the offline Help for that language.
The accepted value for this property is the two-letter
code for any
of the following supported languages:
• Chinese Traditional:
CT
•Dutch: NL
•English: EN
• French: FR
•German: DE
•Italian: IT
• Japanese: JP
• Spanish: ES
•Russian: RU
Here’s the command-line syntax:
\\server\path\Setup.exe INSTLANG=code
Installing more than one language module
You can install multiple languages by using comma separators, as
in the following example:
\\server\path\Setup.exe INSTLANG=EN,FR,DE
When installing multiple language modules, you can use the
FORCELANG public property to specify the default module. As with
INSTLANG, the accepted value for this property is a two-letter
language code.

language modules are installed, but French is specified as the
default:
\\server\path\Setup.exe INSTLANG=EN,FR,DE FORCELANG=FR
Controlling network-related features of the software
You can disable ALL network-related features of the installed
software by specifying a value of
1 for the IOFF public property.
Here’s the command-line syntax:
\\server\path\Setup.exe IOFF=1
Controlling license-agreement prompts for the software
If the software is installed silently, the workstation user will be
prompted to accept the End-User License Agreement (EULA) at first
start-up. You can suppress the EULA prompt on the workstations
by specifying a value of
1 for the FORCENOSHOWLIC public property.
Here’s the command-line syntax:
\\server\path\Setup.exe FORCENOSHOWLIC=1
IMPORTANT: Please note that if you choose to suppress the EULA
prompt on the workstations, you are accepting the terms of the
EULA on behalf of all users on your network when you create the
server image.
Controlling the installation of desktop shortcuts
By default, every workstation receives desktop shortcuts for the
software. You can disable the installation of these shortcuts by
specifying a value of
NONE for the DESKTOP public property. Here’s
the command-line syntax:
\\server\path\Setup.exe DESKTOP=NONE
Controlling file associations for the software
Depending on the version of the OS, some file formats are
automatically associated with Corel PaintShop Pro X9. You can
disable these file associations by specifying a value of
CDS_ASS_IMAGE public property. Here’s the command-line syntax:
\\server\path\Setup.exe CDS_ASS_IMAGE=0

Corel PaintShop Pro X9 supports a variety of user resources — files
(such as workspaces or images) that can be shared among
workstation users over the network, or stored locally for personal
use. When deploying to the workstations, you can specify the
locations of the shared and local resource folders.
Shared resource folder
If you want to provide workstation users with a shared repository
of resources, use the
this property is the desired
C_GLOBALREAD public property. The value for
location of the shared network folder;
all workstation users can access, but not modify, this folder.
\\server\path\Setup.exe C_GLOBALREAD="location"
Local resource folder
When a workstation user starts Corel PaintShop Pro X9 for the first
time, a local resource folder (Corel PaintShop Pro\19.0) is created in
that user’s Documents (on Windows 10, Windows 8, and
Windows 7) folder. The workstation user requires full (read/write)
access to this folder — and is prompted to provide an emergency
folder when it is unavailable.
If you want to customize the location of the resource folder on the
workstations, you can use the
value for this property is the desired
MY_PSP_FILES public property. The
location to the local folder;
the resources stored in this user folder can be accessed only by that
user. Here’s the command-line syntax:
\\server\path\Setup.exe MY_PSP_FILES="location"
Creating user resources
For details on creating user resources for Corel PaintShop Pro X9,
please see the Help.
Controlling the database import process
By default, when you install a new version of Corel PaintShop Pro
X9, it imports the database from the previous version. If you want
to start with a clean database, you can turn off the importing
action by using the following command:
IGNORE.IMPORTDB=1
Here’s the command-line syntax:
\\server\path\Setup.exe IGNORE.IMPORTDB=1
Deployment Guide
Stage 3: Installing the software 13
Controlling when user data is created
By default, after you install the application, it launches and
initializes the user data setup. The following command lets you
suppress the initialization so that it occurs when the users first
launch the application:
SKIPSILENTINIT=1
Here’s the command-line syntax:
\\server\path\Setup.exe SKIPSILENTINIT=1
The initialization must occur, it’s just a matter of timing. In the
event that you have many seats and might not have sufficient time
to deploy the application, you can use this command option.

Repairing the software
Help updates for locallystored Help files (all
languages) are also
available from the Corel support
website. Follow the “Updating
the software” instructions to
update the server image and
deploy the Help to
workstations.
Applying a patch may
require you to re-enter
your customer information
and serial number. Just in case,
keep these details handy.
You can use the command-line switch /reinstall to repair the
software by reinstalling it from the specified server image.
Here’s the command-line syntax:
\\server\path\Setup.exe /reinstall
To silently repair the software, include the /qn switch:
\\server\path\Setup.exe /qn /reinstall
Updating the software
Corel periodically releases Microsoft patch (MSP) files, or
“patches”, for its products. Installing patches helps to keep the
software up-to-date.
By default, the software is configured to use an automatic-update
feature to detect when patches are available.
However, you yourself must deploy updates to the workstations if
you choose to disable to automatic-update feature (see
“Controlling network-related features of the software” on page 12
and “To create a server image” on page 3). In this scenario, you
must monitor the website for Corel Support Services
