Security — Rights needed to install
The setup is designed to allow only users with administrator
rights to install to a server location or to install to a workstation.
Administrator rights are specific to the workstation. To run
either the administrator setup or the workstation install of
WordPerfect Office 11, you must be a member of the domain
administrator group for the domain you are managing or be a
local administrator .
Installation files
During the installation process, a series of files are referenced to
accomplish specific functions. These files include:
WPO11.msi
The WPO11.msi file contains all the required components and
registry keys. It also defines directories and shortcuts that need
to be installed. System administrators electing to set up using
the Microsoft MSI Installer can find the WPO11.msi in the
WPO 11 folder on CD 1 or at the root of the network install.
IsScript.msi
This file is a database that InstallShield® uses to add its setup
engines to the operating system. System administrators electing
to use the InstallShield setup application can find IsScript.msi
within the WPO 11 folder on CD 1 or at the root of the
network install.
WPO11.SMS
WPO11.SMS is an administrator file used with Microsoft
Systems Management Server. System administrators electing to
install using the Microsoft Systems Management Server will
find the WPO11.SMS file in the WPO 11 folder on CD 1 or on
the root of the network install. For more information, see
"Systems Management Server" on page 19.
Instmsia.exe and Instmsiw.exe
To run the WordPerfect Office 11 setup, you require version 2
or later of the Microsoft Installer. If you are not running version
2 or later, one of the two files, Instmsia.exe or Instmsiw.exe, will
execute during the setup to update the installer. The file that
runs depends on which operating system you are using.
The Instmsia.exe file is designed for Windows 98 SE and
Windows Me, and Instmsiw.exe is designed for Windows NT 4,
Windows 2000, and Windows XP Professional.
In most cases, it is not necessary to run Instmsia.exe or
Instmsiw.exe in addition to the WordPerfect Office 11
setup. The install engine determines if an update is
needed. However, if you prefer, you can run the file on
systems prior to the WordPerfect Office 11 installation
to reduce setup time.
You need to run Instmsia.exe or Instmsiw.exe if you are
launching an installation with msiexec.exe.
Product updates
WordPerfect Office Update is an automatic feature that notifies
users of updates to WordPerfect Office 11, downloads the
updates, and installs them. WordPerfect Office Update operates
via the Web, so it requires an Internet connection.
When you install WordPerfect Office 11, you can set how often
WordPerfect Office Update checks for updates. If you prefer,
you can disable WordPerfect Office Update altogether by
choosing to never check for updates; in this case, you may also
want to take the added step of removing the WordPerfect Office
Update link from each workstation's Start menu.

Chapter 1: Introduction3
Chapter 2: Installing to a server
About the WordPerfect Office 11 CDs
WordPerfect Office 11 Disc 1 contains all the installation and
most of the application files. These files are compressed.
• Windows NT 4 Server
• Windows 2000 Server
• Windows 2000 Advanced Server
However, simply copying the files from the CD to a network
does not constitute a valid server installation.
After successfully completing the network server installation,
you can access it to initiate the installation process to a
workstation.
Supported server operating systems
WordPerfect Office 11 is supported on the following server
operating systems:
• Novell 4
• Novell 5
• Novell 5.1
• Novell 6
Chapter 2: Installing to a server5
General information and recommendations for
network installation
• Ensure the network file systems are running NWell or
NTFS partition. FAT and FAT32 are not supported.
• Choose a server folder that users have read-only access to,
and confirm that users have network access.
• Choose a server location that has enough free space.
Approximately 330 MB hard disk space for the WordPerfect
Office Standard Edition and 370 MB for the Professional
Edition is required for the network installation.
• Make sure the network operating system is operating with
the latest available release.
• You must have administrator privileges to use the network
setup.
• Limit the installation path to fewer than 90 characters.
• To change the server location of the WordPerfect Office 11
server image, you must access the network installation
program to create a new server installation. Simply copying
the files to the new location does not constitute a valid server
installation.
Running the network setup application
You can run the network setup application using msiexec.exe or
setup.exe. If you run msiexec.exe, you need to update the
following files: IsScript.msi, Instmsia.exe (Windows 98 SE and
Windows Me), and Instmsiw.exe (Windows NT 4, Windows
2000, and Windows XP Professional). If you run setup.exe, the
files are automatically updated for you.

Removing a server installation of
WordPerfect Office 11
There is no application to automatically remove WordPerfect
Office 11 from the server. Server installations must be removed
manually by the administrator.
Keep in mind the following:
• Once you have removed the server installation of
WordPerfect Office 11, the only way to reinstall it is using
the network setup application.
• When you remove a server installation, we recommend that
you remove all network-based workstation installations first.
• Make sure the applications to be removed and any associated
files are not currently in use.
Chapter 2: Installing to a server7
Chapter 3: Installing to a workstation
Once you have installed WordPerfect Office 11 to a server, a
workstation installation must be performed on each system
where the application will run. Depending on the environment,
you may want to perform the installations using different
procedures. Users can access the setup application through the
network and perform their own workstation installations.
Preparing to install WordPerfect Office 11
to a workstation
To install WordPerfect Office 11 to a workstation, the user
should have read-only rights to access the installation files on
the server. Each workstation must meet the minimum
requirements listed on page 1.
It is a good practice to update the Microsoft Windows Installer
and the InstallShield scripting engine on each workstation prior
to installing WordPerfect Office 11. However, this step is not
mandatory; if necessary, the setup application will
automatically update the Microsoft Windows Installer, proceed
Chapter 3: Installing to a workstation9
with the application installation, and then prompt the user to
restart the computer.
You must have administrator privileges on the
workstation to use the setup.
Run Instmsia.exe or Instmsiw.exe, and IsScript.exe on
each workstation to up date the in staller to version
2.00.2600.2. On ear lier op er at ing sys tems, this may
re duce ad min is tra tion dur ing the WordPerfect Office 11
in stal la tion. For in for ma tion on which in staller up date
to use, see “In stal la tion files” on page 3.
Before implementing the workstation installations, the
administrator should plan how the workstations will receive the
installation.
Users can run the setup application from their workstation and
choose their own installation options, interacting with the setup
application. Administrators can also use a command-line switch
to disable the user interface for the setup application and force
users to use predetermined installation options. Both of these
installation methods support both UNC paths and mapped
drives.
In addition, administrators can effect a pull install through
technologies such as IntelliMirror®. Similarly, administrators
can effect a push install by using deployment technologies such
as Systems Management Server (SMS), which require that the
user log off the system and push to it the appropriate credentials
for a user installation.
For more information on using command-line switches, see
“Com mand line switches” on page 13.
Performing workstation installations
When installing WordPerfect Office 11 to a workstation, you
can choose the features you want to install. After installing
WordPerfect Office 11, you can add or remove features. In
addition, you can install missing files and shortcuts, or you can
replace corrupt files.
To perform a workstation installation
1 On the workstation’s Windows taskbar, click Start } Run.
2 Click Browse and choose the lo ca tion and folder of the
net work server in stal la tion of WordPerfect Office 11.
3 Choose Setup.exe and click Open.
4 Click OK.
Click Release notes to view information about any lastminute updates to WordPerfect Office 11. To continue
without viewing the Release notes, click Next.
5 In the Welcome to the installation wizard for WordPerfect
Office 11 dialog box, click Next.
6 In the License agreement dialog box, click the I accept
button.
If you do not want to accept the terms in the license
agreement, click the I decline button to exit the setup.
7 In the Cus tomer in for ma tion di a log box, en ter your user
name and organization, and click Next.
8 In the Select features dialog box, you can choose the
applications and components to be installed, and choose
from among the following installation options for each
component:
• This feature will be installed on local hard drive
• This feature, and all subfeatures, will be installed on
local hard drive
• This feature will be installed to run from network
• This feature, and all subfeatures, will be installed to run
from network
• This feature will not be available
All of the above installation options are available if you
chose Local and run from network installation in the
Network options dialog box when running the setup on
the network. If you didn't choose this option, the
installation options would vary.
9 In the Destination folder di a log box, click Next to ac cept the
de fault des ti na tions for the application files or click Change
to choose an other drive or folder for the application files.
10 In the Ready to install the program di a log box, review the
options you have selected and then click In stall to be gin
copy ing the files to the workstation.
In the Destination folder dialog box, the destination is
limited to 90 characters.
You can get more information about the installation
options by clicking Help in the Custom setup dialog
box.
General information about installation options
Selecting an installation option for a parent component limits
the installation options available for the child components. For
example, if you select This feature will be installed on localhard drive for a parent component, the child components will
be limited to the options This feature will be installed on localhard drive and This feature will not be available.
Some components depend on other components to function
correctly. During installation, the required components do not
need to be installed; however, once the installation is complete,
any components required will be added automatically.
Reducing the size of the installation
Some components must be installed locally, even when the
remainder of the application components are installed to run
from the network. These components include
• Visual Basic for Applications 6.3
• Microsoft Internet Explorer 6
• Digital signatures using Microsoft Internet Explorer 6
• fonts
• Borland® Database Engine (BDE)
If hard drive space is at a premium on the workstation, you can
choose not to install Visual Basic for Applications 6.3, Microsoft
Internet Explorer 6, and Digital signatures using Microsoft
Internet Explorer 6. Fonts must be installed locally and cannot
be run from the network.
Running from the network
A ‘run from network’ installation of WordPerfect Office 11 will
reduce the amount of space required on the user’s workstation.
Only those files necessary to run the applications will be copied
to the workstation. For a run from network installation to
function correctly, it must follow a network installation on a
server. In addition, users must be able to connect to the folder of
the network installation, and they must have read access to the
files in that folder. Administrators may prefer to have users map
to the network folder and set the option to log on to the folder
at startup, as this can reduce problems caused by users not
being connected to the network folder when trying to access the
applications.
Some features (such as VBA and digital signatures,
InstallShield system files, and MSI tables) are designed
to install only locally –– that is, you cannot run them
from the network. You will need to factor these features
into the total installation size prior to deployment.
Chapter 3: Installing to a workstation11

5 Fol low the in struc tions.
When you click Change in the Add/Remove programs
dialog box and select the Remove option in the
installation wizard, you will be given the option of
removing or keeping any user files.
You can also browse to the setup.exe file and run it with
the /x com mand line switch. For more in for ma tion, see
“Com mand line switches” on page 13.
You can automate the installation process by using command
lines with the installation application. You can use command
line switches to control the type of installation, the amount of
interaction the user has with the installation application, the
creation of log files, and more. You can also use property
commands to populate fields in the installation application user
interface, to choose installation locations, and to customize an
installation.
Preparing workstations for command line
installations
Before performing a command line installation on a
workstation, some preparation is necessary. Each workstation
must meet the minimum requirements listed on page 1. Each
workstation must also have the most recent operating system
service packs, and have Microsoft Windows Installer version
2.00.2600.2. If the Microsoft Windows Installer needs to be
updated, you can do so by running one of the following files:
Chapter 4 : Command line installations13
• On Windows 98 SE and Windows Me systems, install
Instmsia.exe.
• On Windows NT 4, Windows 2000, and Windows XP
Professional systems, install Instmsiw.exe.
For more information about these files, see “Installation
Files” on page 2.
In addition, the scripting engine IsScript.msi must be installed
on each workstation. It can be installed using any msi
installation method. The scripting engine file can be found in
the WPO 11 folder on the WordPerfect Office 11 CD, or in the
WPO 11 folder of the network installation.
Using command line switches
Some of the command line switches work with both the
setup.exe application and the msiexec.exe application, while
others work only with the msiexec.exe application.
Many command line switches have additional parameters. You
can use the command line switch alone, with a single
parameter, or with multiple parameters. To use a parameter,
simply type the parameter immediately after the switch. For
example, the /f switch has the parameters p, e, c, a, m, and s.
You can use the /f switch alone
msiexec.exe /f "path"\WPO11.msi
or with a single parameter
msiexec.exe /fp "path"\WPO11.msi
or with multiple parameters
msiexec.exe /fpecms "path"\WPO11.msi
The following list details the available command line switches,
switch parameters, and examples of how to use them.
/a
Installs WordPerfect Office 11 to a server. This switch can be
used with both setup.exe and msiexec.exe, as follows
setup.exe /a
or
msiexec.exe /a "path"\WPO11.msi
/I
Installs or configures WordPerfect Office 11. This switch can
only be used with msiexec.exe, as follows
msiexec.exe /I "path"\WPO11.msi
/f [p|e|c|a|m|s]
Repairs an existing installation. This option ignores any
property values entered on the command line. The parameters
available for this switch are
• p — installs any missing files
• e — installs any missing files and replaces files where an
older or equal version of that file is currently installed
• c — installs missing files and replaces files whose stored
checksum value does not match the calculated checksum
value
• a — replaces all files
• m — rewrites all required computer-specific registry entries
• s — replaces all existing shortcuts
The default parameters for this switch are “pecms”. This switch
can only be used with msiexec.exe, as follows
msiexec.exe /f "path"\WPO11.msi
/x
Removes an installation of WordPerfect Office 11. This switch
is not recommended with the use of the log switch (/l). This
switch will not work as expected if the application is not
installed. This switch can be used with both setup.exe and
msiexec.exe, as follows
Sets the extent to which the user sees the installation user
interface. For example, an administrator can use these
commands to automate the uninstallation process. The
parameters available for this switch are
• n — the user does not see the installation user interface
• b — the user sees only a basic installation user interface
• r — the user sees only a reduced installation user interface
This switch can be used with both setup.exe and msiexec.exe,
as follows
setup.exe /x /v/qn
or
msiexec.exe /I "path"\WPO11.msi /qr
To use the Windows Installer directly, use this example:
msiexec.exe/I "path"\WPO11.msi /q[r,n]
• e — logs only error messages
• o — logs error messages regarding insufficient hard drive
space when installing to a server
• v — verbose output; logs very detailed information
• + — appends log information to an existing log file
• * — logs all command lines to a single log file
This switch can only be used with msiexec.exe, as follows
During command line installations using msiexec.exe, you can
set the value of various installation properties, such as the user
name, company name, destination directory, and more. You
can also choose the type of installation and the components to
be installed, or choose to remove, repair, or reinstall the
applications.
The /q switch cannot be used alone; it must be used in
conjunction with one of its parameters.
The r parameter works with setup.exe.
/l [s|w|e|o|+|*|*v]
Logs general information about the installation to a log file
whose path and filename you specify. The parameters available
for this switch are
• s — logs only the status messages
• w — logs nonfatal warnings
Chapter 4 : Command line installations15
The setup.exe installation application does not support
the use of property values.
Public properties
Public properties contain the information found in the
Customer information and Choose destination location dialog
boxes. They are used to input the user information, the serial
number, and the destination locations for the applications and
for the shared components during a command line installation.
Public properties are case sensitive; they must be typed all in
capital letters, and they cannot contain spaces.
The public properties are
• USERNAME — the user name field in the Customer
information dialog box
• COMPANY NAME — the organization field in the
Customer information dialog box
• SERIALNUMBER — the serial number field in the
Customer information dialog box
• INSTALLDIR — the destination location field for
application files in the Choose destination location dialog
box
To use a public property with msiexec.exe, type the msiexec.exe
command line you wish to use, followed by a space, the public
property name, an “=” sign, and the public property value, as
follows
In addition to setting public properties, you can also control the
installation type, choose the components to be installed and
remove, repair, or reinstall applications. To use a custom
property with msiexec.exe, type the msiexec.exe command line
you wish to use, followed by a space, the property name, an “=”
sign, and the public property values (separated by commas if
there is more than one value), as follows
To use more than one custom property, separate the properties
with a space. The operations you specify in the command line
happen in the order they are specified in. In the following
example
the installation application will first set all features to be
installed locally on the workstation, next it will change the
Presentations program files and Help files to be run from the
network, and finally it will set the thumbnail display
component to the This feature will not be available installation
option.
Many of the custom properties require you to specify the
WordPerfect Office 11 components to be affected. For a
complete list of WordPerfect Office 11 components, see
“Component tree for command line installations” on page 25.
Custom command lines — installing
The custom properties available while performing an
installation are
• ADDLOCAL — installs specified components using the
This feature will be installed on local hard drive installation
option, or you can specify ALL to install all components
• ADDSOURCE — installs specified components using the
This feature will be installed to run from network
installation option, or you can specify ALL to install all
components
• REMOVE — sets specified components to the This feature
will not be available installation option
When using the ADDLOCAL and ADDSOURCE
properties, any components that are not specified will
automatically be set to the This feature will not beavailable installation option.
The REMOVE property is designed to be used in
conjunction with ADDLOCAL=ALL and
ADDSOURCE=ALL to specify individual components
that are not to be installed.
FastOEM property
The FASTOEM property reduces the time it takes OEMs to
install applications.
If you are installing from a source which is not activated,
you have to include the serial number.
To prepare the system for the FASTOEM command
line property for Windows Installer
1 Make sure that you have enough space on the workstation
you are going to install to. Please refer to the application
specification for the exact size of the installation size
required.
2 Ensure that the operating system has the latest updates for
Windows Installer and that the IScript found on the CD is
installed before launching this command line.
3 When using a CD install, make sure you have a valid license
key available to add to the command lines while installing
from a CD.
Custom command lines — reinstalling
The custom property for reinstalling applications is
• REINSTALL — reinstalls specified components and registry
entries if they are missing or corrupt, or you can specify ALL
to reinstall all components and registry entries:
msiexec.exe /I "path"\WPO11.msi REINSTALL=ALL
• REINSTALLMODE — recaches and reinstalls
