Unattended Installs – PDF Creator
PDF Creator
PDF Creator is a great little utility that sets up as an extra printer. Any program that can print can then be used to create a PDF. Very handy to have around.
This method was tested and working on PDF Creator v0.9.7.
Details on the command line options can be found here.
In order to do an unattended install, you first have to create an inf file. This is done by running the installer in a special mode:
PDFCreator-0_9_7_setup.exe /SAVEINF="pdfcreator.inf"
This will run through the installer and save out the setup options you use to the pdfcreator.inf file.
Once you’ve done that you can now set up your unattended install:
PDFCreator-0_9_7_setup.exe /SP- /VERYSILENT /NOCANCEL /NORESTART /LOADINF="./Installers/pdfcreator.inf"
