Hi,

We bought the NovaPDF 7 OEM Single Application. We are working on adding it to our installers. We use a 3rd party product (Advanced Installer). It is having issues with the long command line parameters we are having to pass to the NovaPDF installer. They tell us the parms list is too long (can take max of 255 characters).

novapv.exe /VERYSILENT /SUPPRESSMSGBOXES /NOCANCEL /NORESTART /PrinterName="DocumentVision Printer" /OEMApplication="DocumentVision" /OEMCompany="Applied Computer Systems, Inc." /OEMSaveFolder="#temp#" /OEMActionApp="#systemdrive#\DVPrinter\DVPrinterSave.exe" /RegisterName="Applied Computer Systems" /RegisterKey="KKKK-KKKK-KKKK-KKKK-KKKK-KKKK-KKKK-KKKK"

The following command worked when we were evaluating as it is less than 256 characters. This is without the Registername and RegisterKey.
/VERYSILENT /SUPPRESSMSGBOXES /NOCANCEL /NORESTART /PrinterName="DocumentVision Printer" /OEMApplication="DocumentVision" /OEMCompany="Applied Computer Systems, Inc." /OEMSaveFolder="#temp#" /OEMActionApp="#systemdrive#\DVPrinter\DVPrinterSave.exe"

Are there any other techniques to get this installed..

Like install as eval first and then later register it?
Run with a Configuration.ini file?


Thanks

Hello, at the moment we do not have an alternative solution for the setup command line parameters, but we will add the possibility to set the parameters in a configuration file.

Thank you.

Ok no problem. We found a workaround.

Off-hand do you know the parameter to uninstall the OEM NovaPDF via command line?
